do the loop back test I mentioned earlier in their thread. that way you'll know if the serial stream is getting off your computer.

 

You got to add you to dialout

Plug in the adapter then type dmesg post that and then I'll tell you how to fix it

 

do the loop back test I mentioned earlier in their thread.

That's not going to help if you can't use serial port to begin with.
the newer arduino adds you to dialout

sudo adduser YOUGOHERE dialout

 

dan@dan-laptop:~$ sudo adduser dan dialout

The dmsg command returns a very long text. I compared with the programmer plugged USB or without it's the same.

You can tell me please, a piece of this result to post (dmesg)?

I want to learn something if I talk with You.

 

You plug in the usb to serial then type dmesg
the last page of it will show what was plugged in need that.
How did you install arduino ide.
If you want you can pm me 17.10 should have what you need now I have a lot of stuff on my computer.
but I no I didn't install a ch340 driver I may of installed usbserial I use it with lots of stuff

dialout:x:20:dan that's not right root should be there too

 

I just clicked on install.sh A window appears where you choose: Execute, Execute in Terminal, .........
I've selected Execute.
Same with arduino-builder.

I also read that the notion of driver is a bit strange(In the sense it was not necessary to use it) to those who work with Linux.

I also can try to install Arduino Windows version in an emulator like wine.

 

There is something wrong this is it usb usb3-port1: unable to enumerate USB device
That only happens if its bad
Have you used it at all.

Plug it in without hooking it to the esp

Post you whole output from lsmod

I have in one USB Rx from wireless mouse.
I only have two USBs.

In the other USB I have the programmer without ESP.

On the same computer in Windows, It works(This programmer + ESP with AT commands).
But Windows does not work on the network and I do not have access to Internet. So in Windows in Arduino IDE I can not install the ESP card.


Anyway, I'm satisfied with the solution found to run another operating system in Virtual BOX.
So the entire operating system will be a single file that can run it on any computer.

 

That not your problem you got setup dialout you as a user or the ide can't use the serial port.
To upload

As a response by a 'Distinguished Member' to a poster's query, I find this totally incomprehensible!

 

Hello:
I was reading through this post on the CH340 and Linux Mint 11. I believe the OP has found a solution using VirtualBox, which is fine if it works for her/him.

For others' benefit, I happen to have Linux Mint 11 running on my mother's LENOVO laptop and will post my research and suggestions.

Distributor ID: LinuxMint
Description: Linux Mint 11 Katya
Release: 11
Codename: katya

I also have a CH340G USB2TTL bridge. Upon issuing the 'lsusb' command, the CH340G device shows up in the listing.

I use 'picocom' as a dumb terminal, so issuing 'picocom /dev/ttyUSB0' as a normal user (permissions) connects to the CH340G without any errors. Note that the 'ttyUSBx' interface may be '0' through 'N'.

beverly@bev-laptop:~$ picocom /dev/ttyUSB0

As one can see, Linux Mint 11 supports the CH340G 'out of the box'. If the OP's CH340G is not showing up in the 'lsusb' listing then the device isn't being recognized. If the OP has access to another computer running Linux of any flavor, (s)he can issue the same 'lsusb' command and look for the CH340G device being recognized. It is possible that the OP's Mint 11 is running an earlier kernel that doesn't support the CH340G. My Mint 11 kernel is '2.6.38'.

In the past, I have seen some folks come up with 'udev' rules for the CH340G. Mint 11 does use the 'udev' service. Below is a rule that I have BUT note that the rule shown below IS NOT running on the Linux Mint 11 that I performed this testing on. I cannot verify that it works.

# This file must be placed at:

# or

Hope this helps...

Lol On ubuntu to use a serial port you have to be added to dialout .......
The poster problem is in the usb it's not like most but to tell them how to fix it is not a east task
I posted showing my output for lsusb and dmesg plus I had to add me to dialout

As for you PhilTilson You got a answer pleases post it.
Maybe you need read this https://askubuntu.com/questions/133235/how-do-i-allow-non-root-access-to-ttyusb0-on-12-04

Because when I posted mine there was talk about not being able to use the serial.
You cant use a serial port on ubuntu If you are not in dialout.. and it don't come with root as to su - root and do your will.
You have to sudo which im sure that not going to be easy.
because the ide has to do it. And he is using the ide as his self.


Mint I cant say I've not used it in years it may have the user in dialout
you could use root. Years ago.

But Ubuntu doesn't like things to be done as root want's you to sudo to use root's power.

But I've looked at this and from what i see something is not right with the usb
I maybe wrong but i thing his laptop is using the pcmcia bus to get the usb ports

 

If I had the whole dmesg output from boot to when he plugs the programmer in I probably help fix the problem.
I don't have his laptop or one like it lol but I would say its the bus that his usb is on

If the Op would kindly try this and see if it solves the problem

Run this first and change id to match and run the second one
lspci | grep -i ehci

sudo echo -n "0000:00:1d.7" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd/unbind

I quit Linux and start with Win and installed the ESP8266 board correctly.
Arduino: 1.8.5

This is a error as GPIO0 is not at the GND. But I measured it in several faces. It is connected to GND.

Strange is that now (with GPIO0 connected to GND), when it should have entered the programming mode, it responds to AT commands:
=>AT
<= AT
OK
I reset after GPIO0 = GND

I have ESP 01.
