Having an issue, hoping you might be able to help.

I had Repetier connected and printing to an older version of marlin. I upgraded to marlin 1.0.0-beta, and at this point, i am having a problem.

I have ensured the baud rates matched ( 115200 ), and also tried a slower rate. I actually get an initial reponse in the log window from the firmware:

but then after that nothing happens, and commands just buffer up and are not sent. ( eg, N commands waiting ) and N keeps going up.

Seems like communication is happening but something is amis.

I was able to make sure the firmware is up and running because pronterface can connect successfully and run commands.
but i am spoiled now by the nice GUI for RH
