All the dependencies are installed. Just attempting to connect with Pronterface for the first time. using the latest 4.2 software from Solidoodle. Any ideas?
EDIT: After an email to Support (Shoutouts to Solidoodle for their super support ) It looks like it may have just been baud rate. I am only testing connection remotely from work, but it connected fine after updating the baud rate to 250000.
