I had a similar environment with Xubuntu VM on the Windows 7 laptop machine, but ran into problems connecting to the USB JLink port on my nRF52832 DK board. I never did figure out the USB problem, but I might have a PC motherboard issue that I'm in the process of dealing with.
I like the idea of the VM and would like to be able to getting it all going at some point. In fact making a VMware or VirtualBox image available to newbie developers (like me) can speed up the mynewt setup. :) ALan ________________________________________ From: Cris Frusina <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, January 05, 2017 6:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Compile and build time, any way to speed up? Hi David, Sounds like a pain! So I got an Ubuntu VM running on the Windows machine and installed the myNewt natively. I didn't really see much of a speed bump (needs a bit further testing). I'll try a different computer later today. Worst case I'll find a Mac to try it on. Cris > On Jan 5, 2017, at 8:34 AM, David G.
