Teensy AVR Evaluation Board

  Date: Feb 04    Category: Unix / Linux / Ubuntu    Views: 402
  

I'm wondering if anyone in the group is having success working with the teensy
AVR Evaluation Board. I can compile and download code to the teensy using
Windows Vista on my laptop, but when I try to do the same thing on my desktop
(running Karmic), it appears to work in that the teensy loader reports that the
code has loaded, but the code is not executed when I press the reset switch on
the teensy. I am seeing no errors or exceptions. I have not tried it under KDE
Natty on the laptop.

The teensyduino application is compiling for a teensy 2.0 board. I am using the
32-bit versions of the teensy loader and the teensyduino, as the 64-bit versions
would not run on my 64-bit desktop.

The FTDI drivers in Karmic are apparently broken. This thread

may help - different device, but the same problem.

Alternately, I can confirm that they work fine in Lucid (I have no
problems talking to an Arduino) - you may want to consider upgrading,
especially as Karmic is no longer supported.

thank you very much for the link. With some difficulty, I was able to
install everything on Kubuntu Natty on my laptop and it is working well. I am
very reluctant to move my desktop up to Natty as Natty does not appear ready for
prime time, but I might move up to Lucid or Maverick.

It is really easy to change the window buttons to the other side if you
don't
want to continue the way you are going.

See the above link on doing the change.

Have you done the Ubuntu setup steps as noted on their web site ?

http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/loader_linux.html

Until you've done those then the device will be recognized as 'read
only' so you'll not be able to write to it

BTW - Interesting bit of kit and not seen these before.
