Anyone using Linux?
Re: Anyone using Linux?
I got a cheap 80.00 laptop and use it to program my radios and scanners, everything else is done on other pc's running Linux Mint

Success story!
I have now managed to get everything working under Linux (flashing the OpenGD77 firmware via Python script, CPS installation AND read/write via CPS (running in Wine). I had done it with a liveboot version of MX Linux. Obviously it depends on the compatibility of all programme versions involved (Wine-Mono etc.).
Of course, the necessary steps (described elsewhere) must also be observed: udev script; Wine registry entries so that the port is recognised and usable.
Conclusion:
Even if it was written several times that it was hopeless under Linux, it still worked to write the code plug on the RT3S.

ok, so how did you get cps on wine to see the usb/cable? can you pop a link to what you did or what you referenced? thanks, --gaspo.
