Now that I have the library installed correctly, I get an error after uploading a test sketch provided by ATAfruit. I get some gibberish in the serial monitor window for a little while, then the error shows. The error is:
processing.app.SerialException: Error opening serial port '/dev/ttyACM0'. processing.app.SerialNotFoundException: Serial port '/dev/ttyACM0' not found. Did you select the right one from the Tools > Serial Port menu? the first time I received this error, I was directed to a troubleshooting site (http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload) which had among other things to suggest the following: On Linux, the Uno and Mega 2560 show up as devices of the form /dev/ttyACM0. These are not supported by the standard version of the RXTX library that the Arduino software uses for serial communication. The Arduino software download for Linux includes a version of the RXTX library patched to also search for these /dev/ttyACM* devices. There's also an Ubuntu package (for 11.04) which includes support for these devices. If, however, you're using the RXTX package from your distribution, you may need to symlink from /dev/ttyACM0 to /dev/ttyUSB0 (for example) so that the serial port appears in the Arduino software. What does it mean to symlink from /dev/ttyACM0 to /dev/ttyUSB0, how do I determine if that is necessary, and if it is, how do I do it? Thanks again for the help. -Denis _______________________________________________ dorkbotpdx-blabber mailing list [email protected] http://music.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/dorkbotpdx-blabber
