USB Infrared Toy / OLS: no such port error after each capture.
Ir Toy V2 with v22 firmware. OLS 0.9.5 running in Funtoo(Gentoo) Linux.
When I try to capture a signal all I get is a blank line. When I try to rerun the capture I get "I/O problem: No Such Port!"
dmesg gives me: "tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 0."
The device still exists but if I try to open it with a terminal emulator I get "cannot open /dev/ttyACM0: Input/output error"
If I unplug and replug in the IR Toy it will let me try to capture again but then the exact same thing happens.

Ideas? I seem to be running into every possible problem with this thing...

USB Infrared Toy / Using Frequency Report
Is there any software that uses the frequency reading abilities of the IR toy? I need to be able to find the frequencies that various remotes transmit at. The docs seem to cover the commands involved but am I going to have to write my own software to use it or is there something out there?

USB Infrared Toy / fw_update not working in linux or OS X
I compiled fw_update in both linux and Mac OS X. In both cases it can't find the ir toy and this is all I get:
# fw_update -e -w -v -m flash -vid 0x04d8 -pid 0xfd0b -ix USBIRToy.v22.hex
U2IO flash erasing: FAILED.
Device is not found.
Operation aborted.

I put the ir toy in to update mode with $ and the light is on. Linux does see the device. This is my current dmesg:
[31831.451058] usb 3-1: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ohci_hcd
[31831.651078] usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=04d8, idProduct=fd0b
[31831.651089] usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[31831.651098] usb 3-1: Product: Diolan
[31831.651103] usb 3-1: Manufacturer: Diolan
[31831.664076] generic-usb 0003:04D8:FD0B.0003: claimed by neither input, hiddev nor hidraw

I originally had hidraw enabled in the kernel and the message was slightly different and /dev/hidraw0 (or something like that) was created. It didn't see the device so I thought maybe the driver was conflicting with libusb. removing it didn't fix it.

I am currently stuck in update mode and my brand new ir toy is useless. Any ideas?

Bus Pirate Support / Bus Pirate V4 Probe Connector
Does anyone have a part number and source for the 2x6 connector needed to make a probe cable for the BP V4? only saw 2x5 and 2x7 on mouser. Premade cables would be nice as well but planning on making a bunch of custom stuff anyway.

Thanks,
  Jess
