am not sure if they work with gMFSK however. There is a ham radio
users group on Debian email lists. If you highlight the Icom program
in Synaptic, below the in the description window it gives some
information about the Debian ham users.
There is a standalone icom program, but hamlib provides rig-control
functions to be used in applications. gMFSK has that capability and IS
built with it enabled (at least as packaged by Debian).
The OP could use PTT by direct keying from a serial port, rather than
doing it over CI-V (if that is even supported). Sure to work then.
