Hi Dennis,
You are not the only one with this problem.
I have installed RepetierHost in Linux Mint 15.
I have followed their
installation and configuration guide.
And... I seem to have the same problem, there is no communication.
The green icon probably only indicates that the port could be opened...?
The "Manual Control" page shows "7 Commands waiting",
and every button I press makes the command queue longer.
This forum topic smells like this problem: [
forums.reprap.org]
Setting the "Receive Cache Size" to 511
as mentioned in this post did not work for me.
Since the program
does work on a Mac with the Ormerod, it should work on Linux too...
