Hi all,
Recently switched again to using Linux for most of my stuff (Kids claimed my crappy windows laptop for minecraft) and am having some troubles trying to figure out a way to interface to my Stratologgers. I am running Xubunutu and have a Win7 image in VirtualBox for those critical programs which are not available under linux. I've been trying to get the stratologger download program to run under VirtualBox and interface through VirtualBox com port mapping to the /dev/ttyUSB0 device which is the FTDI serial adapter in Linux-land. When I do this, the stratologger makes that weird warbling sound like it's connecting, but the download application ends up erring out.
Does anybody else try to do this? Any advice?
Kevin
