AttributeError when renaming device about consolepi

[Pack3tL0ss]

That one I've seen myself, but need to dig out the adapter that causes it to test. It's appears to impact adapters that don't present a serial number. The selection of the less unique fallback options for those devices was missed/needs to be adjusted to work with the new menu (was changed to add paging support).

You can see the devices attributes with s# in the rename menu. serial_short is the serial number that is normally used to identify the device. If it's an FTDI you may be able to write a serial to it using the FTPROG utility from FTDI. I'll get it sorted out when I can.

Thanks for taking the time to report it.

Hi,
those four devices are connected to a 4-port RS-232 to USB hub:

If attached devices to hubs cannot be renamed:
Is it still possible to label those devices? They will always be attached to the same port of the hub, which I can see is part of the ID: by_id: /dev/serial/by-id/pci-9710_7840-if00-port3.
Therefore it should be possible to identify them uniquely?
