Comments for JDiveLog http://www.jdivelog.org the open source logbook for scuba divers Sat, 04 Feb 2012 16:31:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 Comment on Linux by AllynCarter http://www.jdivelog.org/how-to/linux/#comment-75 AllynCarter Mon, 21 Nov 2011 01:22:00 +0000 http://www.jdivelog.org/how-to/linux/#comment-75 Hi, I thought it might be useful to share my recent problem (and solution) in getting the RXTX libraries to work. I recently upgraded to a new computer and installed Ubuntu 11.11 amd64. This is the first time I have used the 64 bit version of Ubuntu and I assumed that was the cause of my inability to get RXTX to work. Assumption, as we know is dangerous. I spent ages trying various different versions of the libraries without success. Anyway, I eventually went back to 1st principles and started to check whether my USB/Serial converter was being detected correctly. It was not. I could see the following in the output of dmesg: <code> [ 913.751123] usb 7-2: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB0 [ 916.062590] usb 7-2: usbfs: interface 0 claimed by cp210x while 'brltty' sets config #1 [ 916.065183] cp210x ttyUSB0: cp210x converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0 [ 916.065202] cp210x 7-2:1.0: device disconnected </code> 'brltty' turns out to be a braile device, which now seems to be installed by default in Ubuntu. I uninstalled it and suddenly everything works again. Thanks for this excellent software. Hi,

I could not make the sw communicate with my Vyper dive computer after install. Following your instructions for Linux X86_64: After replacing the file librxtxSerial.so in folder x86_64 and copying the file into the amd64 folder and copying the file RXTXcomm.jar into the /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/ext folder everything worked perfect. The x86_64 folder on my comuter: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk/jre/lib/x86_64 The amd64 folder on my computer is: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk/jre/lib/amd64 I am using Mint 11 and I am quite new to Linux. Thanks for making this great software! Kind regards, Kristian Hi Pascal,

It doesn’t seem to bother jdivelog, because I can run it. Everything works correctly, except that i can’t specify the port com. it doesn’t find any of them. I have installed the “rxtx-2.1-7-bins-r2″. I have tried the same installation process on windows xp, and it works fine… What am I missing ? thanks for your help, i’d really like to use this soft for my ostc mk2 Jay Hello,
