[SOLVED] 12.04 Aeon Z-Stick 2 - No Communication with Controller?

[davegravy]

I added this device using PnP via orbiter.  After detection and device creation it appears LMCE is completely unable to communicate with the controller. See log:

This same stick in the same hardware config works on 1004.

Phenigma mentioned in IRC seeing similar issues but got things working by doing a few things including resetting his Z-stick. I will if there's no other choice, but I have all my node info from 1004 on the device and I'd rather not break that.

Not sure if it's abnormal but I've deleted and re-added the device several times, with the dongle in the same physical usb port, and the /dev/ttyUSB2 seems to change (it's shown up as USB0 an USB1 in the past)

Any ideas?

Some combination of unplugging/replugging and rebooting fixed it. Wish I could provide more info!

My guess is a combination of a lock-up of the stick (some Aeon sticks will lock up and have to be un/replugged to resume normal operation), and mismatch between the port configured and the actual port. (Re-plugging a device might assign it a new port as well).
