Re: CWID confusion.
开云体育fldigi and flrig communicate using the flrig xmlrpc server.? You can monitor the data requests and responses using the trace tool:The data streams will be added to the trace.txt file in $HOME/.flrig (or the folder specified by --config-dir <PATHNAME>). That might give you a clue as to what is occuring. David On 1/11/25 04:42, Dave, G?WBX via

Update...
The Macro as specified earlier still at times fails to put the rig into Transmit. (Seems more prevalent if you leave the system idle for a while.) What tests would you like done? 73. Dave G0WBX. -- Created on and sent from a Unix like PC running and using open source software: |

OK Brian, I have signed up for gitlab, and have read access at least.? I'll wait a day and see if I gain access to comment/raise an issue.
(It seems they have been having a lot of spam posting issues.)

I thought Github was confusing enough, but gitlab takes the biscuit in that respect!
No doubt if one immerses oneself into it, the mists clear, but for occasional users reporting issues, not helpful from first impressions.
I'll try and stick with it though.

I'll report back here on any progress with the issues I have found, if they regard them as issues of course.

Re: [KM4ACK-Pi] Trouble installing VARA on RPi4
开云体育Adrian:Many thanks for the reply ! Linux noob here, but studying. I think I have vb6run (I think SP6) and mfc42 already installed, but I will check.? I do NOT have cabextract. I’ll also check the others. Now, with a 32 bit system, do I need wine64 or wine32 ? I need to document all this, because if I actually do get this right, there are a lot of guys that want to know about it. I’ll keep notes. :) 73, Jamie WB4YDL On Jan 10, 2025, at 9:22?PM, Adrian Fewster, VK4TUX via groups.io <vk4tux@...> wrote:

Re: [KM4ACK-Pi] Trouble installing VARA on RPi4
开云体育OK, using Winetricks, I installed VB6, and a few missing other files. I was still getting errors about missing or misinstalled OCX files. I had to retrieve them at OCXme.com. Finally, VARA FM materialized briefly … but shut down quickly. A buzzkill. The error is something about advapi32.dll. I tried a different version, but getting the same thing. “Call from 7BDAACE8 to unimplemented function ADVAPI32.DLL. PerfEnumerateCounterSet, aborting wine …” Then it calls for debugger which didn’t run. I’m close, just not there. Any help appreciated. Going to copy this to linuxham group as well. 73, Jamie WB4YDL PS - while running Winetricks for missing files, this error box came up This may be the source of why the VARA install Pi App script would just stall. I never got this box when I ran it - only with Winetricks. Tried wineserver -k and -k9, but it never stopped these boxes. But when I clicked OK, it woul take off and continue to complete the requested fill. Again, RPi4 with 32bit Bullseye. On Jan 10, 2025, at 2:14?PM, James C. Hall, MD WB4YDL <heartdoc@...> wrote:

Thanks Dave 'HKJ.

I'll try that when home tomorrow and let you know.

One thing that always frustrates me, is the lack of a context driven help system.? However, achieving that would not be a trivial undertaking.

I also fail to find the obvious in the help documentation, I just don't think in the way it is laid out.

Hi. |
CWID confusion.
Hi.
I'm sure I had all this working in the past, but not now....... Not helped by issues with my main PC preventing reliable access to it.?? That is fully disconnected, cold and dead for now. Fldigi 4.2.06 with Flrig 2.0.05 on LMDE 6 running on an 8 core intel based machine, a Dell XPS laptop with 8G RAM, using external USB connected sound device, and serial port DTR to key the radio, a TS870s. Using Fldigi/Flrig for "normal" working is fine, but attempting to create a macro to send a CWID and "ONLY" a CWID, and I'm failing... I'm sure this has cropped up before in the list, but attempting to create a macro to send a CWID and "ONLY" a CWID, regardless of the prevailing mode that was being used I can't make work, after some 40 minutes faffing about, so hear I am. This is the contents behind a freshly assigned "CW ID" Macro button... <TXRSID:off> <PUSH> <MODEM:CW> <TX> <CWID> <RX> <POP> <TXRSID:on> It fails miserably... Firstly it doe not always put the rig into TX!? Sometimes it will for a few attempts, then it'll not bother, but sends audio each and every time.? (Debugging this with the rig on low power into a load, while using the default audio device for the TX audio, so hopefully no QRM being sent.) It always sends a RSID (TXID button here is enabled by default, and is not seen to be disabled while the macro runs.)? Then a burst of Olivia 8/250 (the mode that is present before invoking the macro) then does the CWID, and goes back to recieve. The indicated mode does not change in the lower left display of Fldigi either. Each individual macro function works exactly as advertised, but not it seems when combined into one file.? In this case. What have I missed this time??? I.e.? How to force a macro to execute sequentially, as it is shown in the editor. I just want it to key the radio, send an unadulterated CWID without any TXID or burst of whatever other digimode was being used, then go back to RX restoring the mode that was in use before the macro was invoked. As earlier.? "Normal" Fldigi usage is fine.?? As are the usual macros for calling answering sending info, logging and closing QSO's etc. Confused again and getting fed up with it. 73.

Re: fldigi abort witnessed - Pi 4.2.05.24
From: Dave, W1HKJ
Date: Thu, 09 Jan 2025 13:48:52 GMT Pipewire is designed to emulate the API calls made to Pulseaudio. Emulations are not always perfect of course, it takes only one "edge case" and all bet's are off.. One thing I know Pipewire prevents, when using Pavucontrol, is renaming of the devices.? Whatever instructions I follow (that has always worked in the past) to make that facility available, it just doesn't even attempt to allow renaming. This is on LMDE 6, LMDE 5 worked perfectly in that respect. I have tried WirePlumber, that seems to work (device renaming also, within that application) and settings were remembered, but each time it was started, the graphical layout was "re-arranged" differently (at random, with items spread all over the UI and a tangle of "wires"!) making it almost useless for most people. Frankly, for serious usage where "stability of settings" is needed between sessions, Pipewire still has some way to go. Plus, detailed info about it is non existent to "varied and sketchy" if you search online for help, indicating to me anyway, that it is still someway off being suitable for prime-time distribution. 73. Dave G0WBX. Still, trying to figure out why I can only use one LMDE 6 PC as Root, "my" user, it seems has lost the permissions needed to allow the Cinnamon desktop to start!? (Something to do with permissions to access ports 0x00 to 0x3f!)? None of the online solutions so far have even come close to helping.?? That issue happened either during a "proper and correct" shutdown, or a later (some days) cold boot. The PC hardware is fine. -- Created on and sent from a Unix like PC running and using open source software: |
Re: Bug report/request - failure of various RsID/Lk operations fldigi V3 to V4
开云体育Wonder if you would review this again Dave. Same behaviour in
4.2.06.19 (yeah I am slow...) What I didn't make clear in my OP was with "Retain tx freq lock" enabled, the operational expectation is that the RX freq would shift to meet the RSID centre, but leave the TX frequency where it is. If "Retain tx freq lock" is disabled I expect the TX and RX to shift together. (which is what it does) Note there us differing action too if the modem changes vs not.
Please try a few RSID's of the same modem, then try changing the
modem. Cheers Bob
