That is the document I thought I did perform option 2. I must have something screwed up I really don't know anything about udev rules.

I created a file,

Code: Select all

/etc/udev/rules.d/99-picaxe.rules

which contained the following:

Code: Select all

#/etc/udev/rules.d/99-axe027.rules
#contains axe027 udev rule to patch default
#FTDI product id to AXE027 product id (0xbd90)

ATTR{idProduct}=="bd90",  ATTR{idVendor}=="0403", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe  -q  ftdi_sio  product=0xbd90  vendor=0x0403"

But that didn't seem to work, because after I reboot, the only way I could get the usb cable to show up in /dev/ was to use option 1 every time.

In the website you gave me I noticed 2 things. They mention to make a file

Code: Select all

/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules

and they say to use ATTRS and NOT ATTR...

Here are the outputs as I followed the website you linked to.

Info from udevadm:

Code: Select all

udevadm info -a -p $(udevadm info -q path -n /dev/bus/usb/002/006)

Udevadm info starts with the device specified by the devpath and then
walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device
found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format.
A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device
and the attributes from one single parent device.

I saved that file then checked it with:

which gave me:

So from this I think that both the 99-picaxe027.rules and 10-local.rules are being read as udev rules I'm assuming.

the website says that this line:

Code: Select all

handling device node '/dev/bus/usb/002/006', devnum=c189:133, mode=0664, uid=0, gid=100

indicates that the udev rules were applied successfully.

Also, from this output,

Code: Select all

GROUP 100 /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules:1

seems to do what we wanted.

I reloaded the udev rules with:

Code: Select all

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && udevadm trigger

but I'm still getting the same results from Linaxepad

So, going back to the output from udevadm test command above, I noticed a few other things.

Now, I'm not sure if the output is telling me to RUN this command myself or it just 'ran' it:

Code: Select all

RUN '/sbin/modprobe  -q  ftdi_sio  product=0xbd90  vendor=0x0403' /etc/udev/rules.d/99-axe027.rules:5

which basically looks the same as option 1 from the pdf except for the ":5" at the end.

And here is where I think I may be running into problems:

Code: Select all

setting mode of /dev/bus/usb/002/006 to 020664 failed: Operation not permitted
setting owner of /dev/bus/usb/002/006 to uid=0, gid=100 failed: Operation not permitted

Also, towards the end of that output it says again to 'run' modprobe command but this time not 'RUN'.

First I tried to look for a problem to the permissions as I suspect this is the issue:

so obviously I'm having an issue accessing this device and it seems to be because of permissions, although everything looks like it's setup properly. If I run the above command as sudo, then I don't get the message:

I'll keep trying but I don't want to just start changing things I don't know anything about. Sorry for the long post, but I figured it was better to post all of the information. Thanks again.

[paulvha]

in the test script it is clear that the device is also touched by libmtp before.:

PROGRAM 'mtp-probe /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.1 2 6' /lib/udev/rules.d/69-libmtp.rules:2283
starting 'mtp-probe /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.1 2 6'
'mtp-probe /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.1 2 6'(out) '0'
Process 'mtp-probe /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.1 2 6' succeeded.

Maybe as that was done already, You can not run that again and apply the changes. Look at my other post that i had send later, about excluding your device from libmtp.rules.

[trevorwright0]

Sorry I didn't realize you had posted another solution. I tried that (coping libmtp.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/) I added the lines to the top of the file and now I get this output from sudo udevadm test /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.1

I don't see any of the mtp stuff mentioned except where it says that it is skipping that file which is what we wanted right?

Still no luck though.

[paulvha]

That is good progress... The test does not change anything... it is just a test.You will need to do a reboot or reload with sudo udevadm control --reload-rules (or reboot) have you tried that ?
Also a little bit of surprise to see reload run again at the end.. Maybe that is correct, but maybe you have another files.rules in /etc/udev/rules.d or /lib/udev/rules.d performing the action.

[trevorwright0]

I don't know anymore lol, I think at this point I'm going to try to reinstall my OS and start again. I think I messed something up from the beginning. I'll use what we've posted here as a guide later tonight and see if I have better results. I think something got screwed up when I initially tried option 1 and option 2. Really appreciate your help Paul! I'll post back asap.

[trevorwright0]

Ok, some more progress....kind of...

I reinstalled Debian with only Gnome, because I was having problems installing multiple desktop environments from the netinst. Then I installed lxde with apt-get install, since that is the environment I've used for a long time.

Then I went through and followed all of the steps we had gone through again, and did some more research along the way as best I could.

I have been able to get the permissions set to /dev/ttyUSB0 and /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/ttyUSB0 and /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/new_id.

BUT, both /dev/ttyUSB0 AND /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/ttyUSB0 are erased every reboot AND /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/new_id is blank after reboot.

After I reboot, here is the output of dmesg after I plug in the cable:

Code: Select all

but /dev/ttyUSB0, /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/ttyUSB0 are gone and /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/new_id is blank, UNTIL I manually type:

Code: Select all

echo 0403 bd90 > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/new_id

AS ROOT. Then the permissions for these three things are not set up for my user so I use chmod 777 for all three as root.

At this point I have /dev/ttyUSB0, /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/ttyUSB0 and /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/new_id (which simply has "0403 bd90") and all three things have proper permissions I think.

Once I run the echo command above and change the permissions, after plugging in the cable, the last line of dmesg changes to:

Code: Select all

FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0

I reload udevadm control --reload && udevadm trigger and still it doesn't not work. It's weird becase within Linaxepad when I click USB Setup within linaxepad it says the following USB devices are available on this computer: /dev/ttyUSB0 but still fails when I try to download with Hardware not found on /dev/ttyUSB0.

One thing I tried was the one website: http://weininger.net/how-to-write-udev- ... vices.html you suggested. I tried adding the GROUP as "dialout" and as "users", but neither seemed to work after udevadm control --reload && udevadm trigger.

Guess I should just go buy a new crap Windowz laptop tomorrow because this is too hard for me to figure out....

[paulvha]

wow... too bad.. there must be something small still stopping it. It should happen automatically, when you have the /etc/udev/rules.d/99-picaxe.rules set end the line for the device is in the libmtp to make it stop. The /dev/USB0 is only created after the cable is plugged in.
Have you tried reboot without the cable in the port, do a tailf /var/log/messages and connect the cable. See what happens then?
regards,
Paul
