Flashing of Servotor32 fails (Ubuntu 12.04)

Hexy Questions, Problems and Suggestions
#1

Hi,

I’m using Gnoduino to compile and flashing Arduino sketches.
With the following changes I was able to compile the code

Unfortunately, I cannot flash the binary to the board.
The error log signals:

What went wrong?

Have you tried uploading with the regular arduino IDE? We can’t really support whatever compiler/IDE people decide to choose to use.

#3

Hi,

I did not try Arduino, but this question is not related to the IDE.
Arduino use also the cli tool ‘avrdude’ to transfer the binary, didn’t it?

I will try Arduino IDE later, but assume to fail on the same step.

#4

I succeeded flashing the Servotor32 from Xubuntu 12.04 (Ubuntu 12.04 with xfce desktop environment). I found the same CAPITALISATION problem with the #include line as mentioned before (worth the update on github?). I used the standard Arduino IDE, critically launching the IDE with the (most magical of all) commands: sudo. With that done I was able to see the Servotor32 board through the IDE and flash away happily.

Hi rpcook,

you’re right. Flashing works with the Arduino IDE. :slight_smile:
There is only one bug in this software (version 1.0.1): Do not use the ‘recent documents page’ of the gnome 3 file dialog to select the sketch. This will throw an exception.

#6

It looks like Gnoduino isn’t using the correct way to upload to a leonardo board.

arduino.cc/en/Guide/ArduinoLeonardo#toc12

When the board is reset the serial port goes away and comes back a few seconds later. Once it’s back then it can be programmed with avrdude. The Arduino IDE handles this reset/wait for serial port delay for you.
