I run Linux Mint. I’m not exactly sure how to adjust that setting yet. I figured that since I had to open the cable anyway to fix the broken Ground, I’d change pins. After the first few failed tries, I became determined to get it working that way. Maybe it was pride…

If you open the Advanced settings of the USB cable driver in Device Manager, you can just check a box to set RTS on close. That works great with the Arduino software, no hardware mod required. Not sure if this is easily accessed on a Mac.
