Warning: device with unknown new version of Micronucleus detected.

[magnets]

So i'm running ubuntu 64 bit.
i have arduino 1.6.5 and followed the wiki instructions on supporting the digispark pro through arduino.
when i try and upload i get the following error

Code: [Select]

Device reports version as: 2.0
Warning: device with unknown new version of Micronucleus detected.
This tool doesn't know how to upload to this new device. Updates may be available.
i had a good google and have tried the following:
I have ensured i am in the dial out group

i read this post which stated it might be a old version of micronucleus
http://digistump.com/board/index.php?topic=1673.0

however when i do the same query i only get

Code: [Select]

./home/bob/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus
./home/bob/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4/micronucleus
so i though maybe my one isn't the right one
as per this post https://digistump.com/board/index.php?topic=1693.0
but i tried the micronucleus attatched to that post and that didin't work either

i tried installing the 32 bit version of libusb via this post
http://askubuntu.com/questions/311401/libusb-0-1-so-4-shared-lib-error-in-ubuntu-64-bit-system
but that also didn't help

i've added the udev rules
i've rebooted
i'm out of ideas...
any help would be greatly appreciated.

[magnets]

thanks for the response Ralf!

i tried that command, at the home level, and in the tools folder (i'm fairly new to linux) and as sudo but everytime i get no response

Code: [Select]

bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools$ which micronucleus
bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools$

i found this post, which seems to agree with your theory, though when i run the suggested fix i don't have an old version
http://digistump.com/board/index.php?topic=1673.0

Code: [Select]

bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools$ sudo su

thanks for the help, i followed your advice but i'm more confused than ever

it says command not found.

Code: [Select]

bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4$ micronucleus --help
micronucleus: command not found
bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4$ ls
launcher  micronucleus
bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4$ micronucleus --help
micronucleus: command not found
bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4$ cd micronucleus
bash: cd: micronucleus: Not a directory
bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4$

using nautilus i've checked that both launcher and micronuclues are read write for everyone and ticked the box that says allow executing file as program.

[magnets]

thanks for the tip!
sorry for the delay in coming back to you. sick pet.

i don't get that output! so i'm assuming i don't have version 2, i'm going to see if i can get it now

i get this

Code: [Select]

bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4$ ./micronucleus --help

                           bytes (intel hex is default)

bob@Slaptop:~/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4$
so i'll try and get the correct output on the command line then post back my results

[magnets]

ok, as you can see i'm not super good on linux, but this is what i did

i went to the micronucleus site
https://github.com/micronucleus/micronucleus
https://github.com/micronucleus/micronucleus

and i hit download zip (right hand side near the bottom)
then i extracted the zip to a temporary folder.
and using the command shell (?) i navigated to the folder and got it to list it's contents

Code: [Select]

bob@Slaptop:~/Downloads/temp/micronucleus-master/commandline$ ls
49-micronucleus.rules  builds  library  Makefile  micronucleus.c  Readme

then i ran the make command

Code: [Select]

bob@Slaptop:~/Downloads/temp/micronucleus-master/commandline$ make
Building library: micronucleus_lib...
gcc  -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lusb -Ilibrary -O -g -D LINUX -c library/micronucleus_lib.c

bob@Slaptop:~/Downloads/temp/micronucleus-master/commandline$

then using nautilus i went to the
home/bob/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus
folder, and then renamed the current micronucleus as micronucleus.old and pasted in the new micronucleus that the makefile created

now when i run the help i get

Code: [Select]

>> Micronucleus done. Thank you!

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

Thanks Ralf!

the only thing i can assume is the digistump arduino script pulled the wrong version of micronucleus (maybe version 2 for 32 bit?) then, because i don't understand Make, i grabbed a wrong version of  micruncleus which gave the strange error

for others following along, you'll need to put the udev rules in to get this to work without sudo

[panguitou]

Thank you Magnet !

I was meeting exactly the same problem than you and I followed your excellent method to re-compile micronucleus and now it worked perfectly !

I had the same problem with my old Digispark and it also settled the problem !

You know what ?

Compiling had a problem with a missing dependency:

Code: [Select]

> make
make: libusb-config: Command not found
make: libusb-config: Command not found
Building library: micronucleus_lib...

compilation terminated.
Makefile:49: recipe for target 'micronucleus_lib' failed

Per this note: http://askubuntu.com/questions/503928/missing-usb-h-file-what-is-it-where-do-i-get-it
the solution was:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install libusb-dev
That got me a clean compile. Don't know yet if I'm going to get a usable micronucleus or not ...

[kjubow]

Can anyone help me??
I don't exactly understand that part : "home/bob/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus
folder, and then renamed the current micronucleus as micronucleus.old and pasted in the new micronucleus that the makefile created"
Can you explain it to me ??

[PeterF]

Welcome to the forum kjubow!

What 'magnets' did was basically:

• Download/clone the source code for micronucleus from https://github.com/micronucleus/micronucleus
• Unzip the file, and navigate to the location of the unpacked files in a terminal window
• Once he was in that folder, ran the 'make' command to compile the micronucleus executable
• He then copied the resulting executable to his /home/username/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus directory, renaming the old file first
• And then tested it to make sure it worked as expected

First thing is first... are you on linux? As this was specific to linux (and a Ubuntu/Debian flavour of linux at that).

And secondly, how familiar with linux are you? (I'm guessing not very if you don't recognise the /home path - but that's ok - just need to know the baseline from which to provide instructions)

[kjubow]

Yes, im running ubuntu. Thanks for reply
