Cant get new version 1.5.0

I've followed the instruction on http://www.cqrlog.com/download and added CQRLOG’s repository and dowloaded cqrlog_1.5.0-1_i386.deb but CQRLog still reports version 1.4.1.
Anyone know how I get around this. Using Linux Mint 12 here.

Re: Cant get new version 1.5.0

I don't know if Linux Mint can use ppa repositories like Ubuntu. Please download install deb file directly from CQRLOG website.

Invalid rigctld configuration under 1.5.0

OK guess what, now that I've upgraded to 1.5.0 all my rigctld comand line arguments have been lost. I know I should have made a note of them the last time I had this issue, but try as I might I cannot get my FT2000 to talk to CQRLog 1.5. With no arguments set, running CQRLog in terminal shows the following:

Starting RigCtld ...
/usr/bin/rigctld -m 129 -r /dev/ttyS4 -t 4532 -s 38400 --set-conf=rts_state=ON
rig_open: error = Invalid configuration
rigctld started!
Result0:N
Result1:Y
Result2:Y
Connected to localhost:4532

I can't really see what exactly is "Invalid" about my config. Ig anyone has got an FT2000 working with CQRLog 1.5 please let me know what the configuration is.

Re: Invalid rigctld configuration under 1.5.0

The arguments are still in the config file but program doesn't use it. You can export the config file from the database and look at it. It's in database connection window -> Utils button -> Configuration -> Export. Config file will be exported into text format.

Ok so should I copy:

Ok so should I copy:

-m 129 -r /dev/ttyS4 -t 4532 -s 38400 --set-conf=rts_state=ON

To the arguments field?

Re: Ok so should I copy:

Please set all serial port values to default and into extra command line parameters put this:

-s 38400 --set-conf=rts_state=ON

other parameters add cqrlog automaticaly.
