pypilot disconnected at startup - Steps toward troubleshooting?

[jamos.tan@gmail.com]

Mine is stable now after setting all serial connections to "remember port" instead of "remember device". But I guess this only helps in my situation, maybe worth a try.

Yep, looked at that.  pypilot was already set to remember port and the other option is greyed out. What's even more annoying is that everything was working fine right out of the box.  This problem developed after I installed a second USB device and moved some GPIO pin assignments for my panel light.

Hmm, might it be a power management thing that causes the problem? What's also strange is that the option is greyed out, shouldn't be the case, at least with me it is still selectable. Never had it greyed out. What do you have connected to your USB headers and to the GPIO pins? Do you use an external (powered) usb hub?

Also, another question. After you do the re-select changing the serial port so that it works again, does it keep working as long as you have the pi booted? Does it reset and break only after reboot?

Also, what i find sometimes helped me in serial management troubles, is to remove all the connections and press reset. Then re-assign everything again. See if there are still things greyed out then.
