Actually, my GPS is /dev/ttyUSB0 and dmesg reports the serial converter

but the prog allowed me to write it in.

Here's my soundmodem start up script:

#!/bin/bash
# This will launch soundmodem and change
# the permissions on/dev/soundmodem0
soundmodem &
sleep 1
chmod 666 /dev/soundmodem0

I call the script with this command:

sudo ./start-tnc.sh

I also (as root) just tried this command (a shot in the dark):

chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB1

The error I get with the start-tnc.sh script is:

 Device "/dev/ttyUSB1" neither parport nor serport
sm[14360]: cannot start PTT output

I'm pretty new at this ubuntu linux stuff - am I missing something?

OK. Did you install soundmodem via a precompiled source or did you build it from source? I have heard that some of the precompiled sources don't work so good on some systems.
