This should be a very basic question. Everything worked at one time, but I've since upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10. After I plug in the gumstix kermit and minicom just hangs! There's no gumstix prompt to login, no messages, nothing. Can anyone point me to place that will walk me through this. I've tried everything that www.gumstix.net had to offer about Kermit and still nothing. My guess is that Ubuntu 9.10 changed something! but I haven't a clue. |

If it's installed it messes up anything that tries to use an FTDI USB to serial converter chip. -- Dave Hylands Shuswap, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |

Thanks for the reply.

Can you ssh in , if you have your board plugged into a router (and can see on the router what ip it gets) ? Do you have another machine you can use to try and connect from ? Can also connect using screen screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200n8 works on linux (fedora 11/12 , ubuntu 9.10 and deb 5) and mac osx 10.6 on mac the serial board is /dev/ttyUSB and the cables/chip serial number(for ftdi devices) Sorry was this an overo or a verdex ?

well, a similar thing happened to me and it ended up being a bad lcd16-console-vx board. Don't ask how that happened, but it went bad, just sitting hooked up there working one day, to not working the next. hope that's not the case for you.
