I've had flrig working on my MacBook Air (M2, running macOS 15.2) for a few days with my Xiegu X6200 (using the X6100 rig choice in prefs). With the exception of needing to reboot between usages of it and the radio, it was working fine. The reboots were required because after shutting down flrig and the radio, the next time I started up the radio and flrig, it would tell me that the serial port was in use by another program (it wasn't, as far as I can tell).
lsof from homebrew can verify that:
$ lsof /dev/cu.*
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
flrig 45225 arekm 9u CHR 9,5 0t0 12413 /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART
flrig 45225 arekm 13u CHR 9,7 0t5102928 12429 /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART3
Suddenly, last night, every time I would start up flrig, it would freeze with the "Initializing" progress bar showing.
Have many USB ports xiegu x6200 provides to the macos?
With ft-710 for example there are two ports appearing in the system ("standard" and "enhanced") BUT the order of them appearing in the macos is always random. It depends on some usb enumeration timing.
So in my case one time "cu.SLAB_USBtoUART" is "standard" port and "cu.SLAB_USBtoUART3" is "enhanced" and other time it's the other way around.
That broke flrig (my fldigi talks to flrig) connection randomly since I always had "cu.SLAB_USBtoUART3" set in flrig.
Maybe it's the same problem with x6200?
