Dear friends, I have a beginners question.

Dear friends,

I have a beginners question. I had my 8266 running happily under Windows and the arduino IDE. Now I switched to Ubuntu Linux, and when I compile my sketch it works fine but it does not download to the board. I get the following message in a mixture of English and German

Arduino: 1.8.5 (Linux), Board: “Arduino Yún”

Der Sketch verwendet 3706 Bytes (12%) des Programmspeicherplatzes. Das Maximum sind 28672 Bytes.
Globale Variablen verwenden 151 Bytes (5%) des dynamischen Speichers, 2409 Bytes für lokale Variablen verbleiben. Das Maximum sind 2560 Bytes.

Has anyone run into this problem, and found a solution?

Thanx so much

Prüf’ auf der Kommandozeile mit dem Befehl “id” Deine Gruppenzugehörigkeit!
Bist Du in der Gruppe “dialout”?

@Robert_Schreiner helmut@helmut:~/Schreibtisch$ id
uid=1000(helmut) gid=1000(helmut) Gruppen=1000(helmut),4(adm),5(tty),10(uucp),20(dialout),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),118(lpadmin),126(sambashare)

Soviel ich verstehe bin ich das

Ja, ich wollte das prüfen, wg. dem “Permission denied”

Arduino Yun ist doch kein ESP8266?!

Hast Du die Boardbibliotheken installiert?

Your baud rate looks a bit low at 1200 bps.

Welche Rechte hat dein /dev/ttyUSB0? Weil deine arduino IDE bekommt beim Zugriff darauf ein permission denied.
Z.b output von ls -lah des devices posten, hast du irgendwelche Gruppenrechte deines Users gerade erst geändert, dann u.u neu einloggen.
In einer Shell einfach Mal ein cat auf das device machen, u.u ein terminal draufhängen zum manuellen damit zu reden.

Your baudrate should be 115200

Sorry for replying so late, the solution was finally to install the IDE application not through ubuntu app-get but get it directly from arduino.cc. The issue was more compicated than setting user groups and name but had to do with a special access control in Unbuntu. Now I can access at least my ESP8266s and Unos. I still have an issue with the Nanos. I will resolve it when I return to this board if ever… There is very littly reason left to work with below ESP8266

Sounds like missing udev rules and thus your device not being in the correct groups.
Hint: you can also just make a chmod 777 on the device as a temporary measure.

@Michael_Gebetsroithe Thank you for this advice, unfortunately it did not resolve my problem. In the end the complete reinstallation of the IDE did the trick.
