[Elecraft] K2 and Hamlib-1.2.3

[Tom Harson]

A question for you guys running Linux and Hamlib with the K2.

I am having difficulty with hamlib-1.2.3 and the K2. About all I can do with
Hamlib (rigctl) is read the frequency and change the frequency. The mode 
function does not work. My SI (Serial Interface) and Linux (Mandrake 10.1) 
function ok. I have verified this with minicom. I am able to communicate with 
the K2 and, have checked most of the commands. 

I have posted my problem to the developers group and do not have much to 
show for it. One fellow said that it worked for him, but provided no
details about his firmware revision. 


I am wondering if Ver. 2.04 of the K2's firmware has been sufficiently
modified to prevent correct interaction between it and Hamlib ?
Anyone have any thoughts or experience ?

Thanks
