I'll assume you mean the relevant bits regarding the comm port? If so: 1 = 'usb:/bus0/dev0 (Xrite DTP94)' 2 = '/dev/ttyS0' 3 = '/dev/ttyS1' 4 = '/dev/ttyS2' 5 = '/dev/ttyS3' > The Argyll code basically enumerates all USB ports, > and locates > any devices it recognizes (The DTP94 being the only > one in V0.6), > and these get listed before any serial ports as a -c > selection. > > The main trap on Linux, is getting the permissions > right to > use the USB port.

Yes, I have followed the setup instructions for devsub at the bottom. > What are the permissions for USB bus 2, device 5, > and it's parent directory ? > Is is writable ? If I understand the rules mods I followed referenced above, then I don't think what I am seeing is correct: mdufresne@wallace:/usr/local/argyll/bin$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/002 total 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 128 2006-10-31 19:25 001 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 129 2006-10-31 19:25 002 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 130 2006-10-31 19:25 003 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 132 2006-11-02 18:25 005 Manually chmodding the files has the desired result: mdufresne@wallace:/usr/local/argyll/bin$ sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/002/* Password: mdufresne@wallace:/usr/local/argyll/bin$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/002 total 0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 189, 128 2006-10-31 19:25 001 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 189, 129 2006-10-31 19:25 002 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 189, 130 2006-10-31 19:25 003 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 189, 132 2006-11-02 18:25 005 mdufresne@wallace:/usr/local/argyll/bin$ ./dispcal -c 1 -a -r -i94 Offset calibration: Place instrument on a dark surface.
