6pack trying to resynch TNC message

6pack trying to resynch TNC message

[Chuck Hast]

I see this message if the TNC gets turned off or the RS-232 cable gets
pulled. Even though all has been restored it is to no avail, it still sets
there and sends the trying to resynch message. Is there a workaround
or just keep the power on the TNC and make sure the Rs-232 does not
get interrupted?

Seriously, 6pack is indeed a much better solution than KISS. I just ran
into this problem when the TNC got powered down and back up,

I guess that the computer is trying to do what the message says but it
is not working.

Any idea of what I can do to make sure that the tnc does get re-synched?

I've fixed the driver's excessive verbosity about resyncing in the latest
version of the 6pack driver which currently is waiting in -mm to be merged.
So unless catastrophes happen it's going to be in 2.6.10 or 2.6.11.

The patch shouldn't make a difference for your case but I'm going to take
a look at it once the latest patch is finally merged.
