Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Porblem with serial conecttor (Gareth Roberts, antoine drouin)

[Stephen L Hulme]

Dear Antoine

 

Subsequent to what I previously said I have now got everything running in 9.10 .

 

I think my problem is when I forget (old age & stupidity) to attach the FTDI cable, I cannot just stop and

clear all processes and insert the cable and re-execute. The errors I have been invoking seem to happen

when I attempt this procedure, which seems not to be a problem in 9.04.

 

Thanks for all the help and sorry for the inconvenience.

 

Regards

 

Stephen

just to make sure, you recompiled the ocaml library after adding the
flag to open ?
