[gentoo-user] Udev trouble: Non working rule...or...

[tuxic]

Hi,

may bet this is part of the theory about the relationship
between the forest and the trees...I am trying this already
for a longer time.

I have one of these:



When plugged in, lsusb reports those as:
Bus 006 Device 018: ID 16d0:0753 MCS Digistump DigiSpark

and in the verbose form:
Bus 006 Device 018: ID 16d0:0753 MCS Digistump DigiSpark
Device Descriptor:
  bLength                18
  bDescriptorType         1

    MaxPower              100mA
    Interface Descriptor:
      bLength                 9

      bInterfaceNumber        0

      bInterfaceSubClass      0 
      bInterfaceProtocol      0 
      iInterface              0 

On the web site of digistump there is listed the following udev-rule,
which I copy-pasted into
ls -l /etc/udev/rules.d/49-micronucleus.rules 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 809 2017-09-28 16:23 /etc/udev/rules.d/49-micronucleus.rules

the contents of that rule is:

# UDEV Rules for Micronucleus boards including the Digispark.
# This file must be placed at:
#
# /etc/udev/rules.d/49-micronucleus.rules    (preferred location)
#   or
# /lib/udev/rules.d/49-micronucleus.rules    (req'd on some broken systems)
#
# After this file is copied, physically unplug and reconnect the board.
#
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="16d0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0753", MODE:="0666"
KERNEL=="ttyACM*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="16d0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0753", MODE:="0666", ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE}="1"
#
# If you share your linux system with other users, or just don't like the
# idea of write permission for everybody, you can replace MODE:="0666" with
# OWNER:="yourusername" to create the device owned by you, or with
# GROUP:="somegroupname" and mange access using standard unix groups.
#

After inserting that rule I did a 
udevadm control --reload-rules
as root and inserted the Digispark.

As listed above, lsusb could list the Digispark...but udev ignores it.
I can find the device under /dev/bus/...., though.
But there is no device created by udev directly in /dev.

Since the Arduino-IDE needs any port to send the firmware to I am
currentlu out of business.

I can see the trees...but where is the forest?

Thanks a lot for any enlightment in advance!
Cheers

This udev rule looks fine, it tries to make the device nodes 
readable/writeable to everyone and makes modemmanager ignore it.

My guess would be that you don't have the correct serial port driver 
built or loaded, so ttyACM nodes are not created at all.

Take a look at dmesg contents when the device gets plugged in.

Hi mlen,

thanks for your help ! :)

The interesting thing is: I have a pololu avr programmer (v20, an
ISP-programmer it is), which uses also /dev/ttyACM<n>...and that
one works fine. I plugged it in simultanously to ensure all drivers
get loaded...and then I plugged in the Digispark...and udec does 
nothing.

Or do I misinterpret here something?

Cheers

Multiple different drivers may create /dev/ttyACM<n> nodes for devices.

For example, on my system I have multiple /dev/ttyUSB<n> nodes. Some of 
them are created by cdc_ether driver, that's my LTE modem. When I plug 
in a popular arduino clone that uses ch341 usb chip, it needs 
a different driver called ch341.

You probably need to build your kernel with CONFIG_USB_ACM compiled in 
or enabled as a module.

Hi mlen,

USB_ACM is already included into the kernel (not as module).
By the way: CH340/CH341 ... I had a lot of trouble with those...
