[chirp_users] Flatpak

2022-05-26 Thread John KI4RO
I keep seeing references to this program but how I should use it is not at all obvious to me. I've tried asking it for help and even asked it for help with certain commands but none of it makes sense to me. I am not Linux literate by any stretch so please tell me step by step what to do. 73 John

Hi Anne - type    chirpw to start chirp, i.e., to see it was installed correctly. The drivers may be out dated but updating them is relatively simple. Also, chirp's flatpak version doesn't work for Linux running on an ARM processor - it only works on Intel x86. -- Cinaed On 5/23/22 16:02,

Guy, This has become an issue in recent months. Many email providers are blocking the transfer of CHIRP "image" files. Even if they are in a ZIP archive, they are blocked. Do you have or can you start a dropbox account that you can upload the "image" to and then email a link to me to share it? Ji
