    uchcom / CH340 adapter configuration fails

    No. I don't know what the ups expects and didn't want to send the wrong thing i.e. potentially modify something without knowing it. If you have a suggestion, I would like to give it a try.

    uchcom / CH340 adapter configuration fails

    mark_j Thanks for the help. I am following your example and throwing these out too. I looks like, even if I could get these to work, they might not be reliable down the road. So I ordered a replacement and I'll see how it goes when it gets here.

    uchcom / CH340 adapter configuration fails

    mark_j After a quick comparison of the trace output from the runs. The differences all look reasonable until the difference in the result of the select on line 263. Is that the timing problem you referred to?

    uchcom / CH340 adapter configuration fails

    mark_j I ran the trace for the working (cuaU0) and non-working (cuaU1) devices and put the output in pastebin. The files are apcsmart cuaU0 and apcsmart cuaU1. I don't know enough to understand them but it seems like they should show what fails and when. Snurg Thanks for the thought. The fact...

    uchcom / CH340 adapter configuration fails

    I have tried connecting them directly to the computer, to a powered hub, and to an unpowered hub. The results were the same regardless of the connection. I think the power requirement is 96mA - usbconfig shows the following for the unpowered hub and the adapters. ugen1.4: <Fresco Logic, Inc...

    Solved pkg update dependency question

    Thanks for that. It identified the packages that were requiring the reinstall of perl 5.20. The problem actually had nothing to do with cpan and the install of DBD::mysql or the programs that I had installed from ports. As you pointed out, packages reference the default version of a program at...

    Solved pkg update dependency question

    Thanks for that explanation. I typically update only those packages that have notices of security vulnerabilities. So the explanation prompts the obvious question - how can I figure out which package is requiring the reload of perl 5.20? I looked at /etc/make.conf and DEFAULT_VERSIONS when I...

    Solved IPNAT error with FreeBSD 10.1

    This may be to the wrong forum. But now that IPNAT is working, I have found another problem. It appears to be ongoing and has been discussed in at least these threads: https://forums.FreeBSD.org/threads/ipnat-goes-slow-on-freebsd-10-1-release-p5.50432/...
