I did all that work to get Xastir to run, now I tried to set up soundmodem
to PTT and it won't recognize my HL-340 USB to serial port adapter!
This is very frustrating - I have no com ports or parallel ports on my
Dell 1501 laptop. I need to get soundmodem to command my adapter
to pull the right pins high so my ptt interface will key my mobile rig.
Help?

Do you have it set up as /dev/ttyUSB0? Do you have permissions to use
that port with sndmodem? These are what I would check.

Actually, my GPS is /dev/ttyUSB0 and dmesg reports the serial converter
as /dev/ttyUSB1. I noticed soundmodemconfig didn't have an entry for that
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?
