Had a few problems with my APRS rig on this weekend's balloon chase.
All have been attributed to pilot error and yet another faulty Belkin
USB hub (which I guess could also be considered pilot error, since
it's the third time I've been bitten by a Belkin hub, but we won't go
there).
Xastir didn't do a lot to help me troubleshoot, though. I goofed
entering the device special file name for the TNC serial port, but
all I got was "ERROR" in the interface status and the standard "error
opening interface X: hard fail" on the tty.
Could we maybe add at least errno, or even better the message
associated with errno, when something fails? A popup would be nice,
but I could certainly live with it getting to the tty.
I'm posting here first before filing a feature request in case the
information is already there and I'm overlooking it.
