Hi,
I'm a linux buff but new to electronics and just got the Arduino
starter kit. Cool! So now I'm attempting to run the Arduino
Duemilanove ATmega328 with Debian Linux 2.6.26-2-686.
I made sure brltty was NOT installed, and installed:
avr-libc avrdude avrdude-doc
binutils-avr gcc-avr gdb-avr simulavr
I plugged in the board via USB and the green PWR light is on, and
the yellow "L" light flashes a few times per second.
I started the Arduino GUI and copied in the beginner's flashing
light code, and the "verify" step reports ok.
But when I click "upload" I get
processing.app.SerialException: Serial port 'COM1' not found.
Did you select the right one from the Tools > Serial Port menu?
But I cannot select the port, as it's greyed out on the tools menu.
I checked google for answers but haven't found anything
meaningful to me.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
Steve
