The cable is easily identified as USB2Serial and set up under Linux as / dev / ttyUSB0. The chirp program can then read the FuG. Problem is when chirpw (graphical user interface) that you can not play a channel list on the device itself in the current version 0.4.0. So I have to see if it comes on the command line, or bite the bullet and start a virtual machine and to transfer the USB device so that I can do on Windows with the included programs. NOTE: Although chirp is in Xubuntu in "repository", but in an old 0.3.x version. For Ubuntu there a repository by the programmer of chirp (websites) :-)
