Thanks for all the useful suggestions and information. I
started off by inserting 'sudo
adduser $USER dialout' and received notice that I was added to
the dial out group. Then when trying to add the firmware in
the usual manner, same result: permission denied. I have given
up on Linux and switched to my iMac. That worked first time. I
now have the latest firmware installed.
Then
I removed the jumper and started up again, using 7.5V. Black
boxes.
So
I read and printed the post Hans put up and which Roger
pointed me to. I inspected all the solder joints to the LCD
header connectors, found them to be okay but still reflowed
the solder on each just to be sure. Same result - black
boxes.?
I
then checked the voltage at each pin of the 2x5 LCD header as
mentioned by Hans. I fired the rig up and probed each pin with
a DMM. All showed 0V except pin 3 (inside rail from the top)
which showed 4.47V.
So
I guess I have made some progress.
