Works perfectly on Linux Mint 21 5.15.0-101-generic! (After installing gtk-sharp2 lol)

James do you have a link to the latest version?

Getting the something similar on Linux Mint (SetupEScribe2_SP50_US.run) about a missing dependency for gdk-sharp although I am not able to find this package on the nets: DISTRIB_ID=LinuxMint DISTRIB_RELEASE=21.2 DISTRIB_CODENAME=victoria DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Mint 21.2 Victoria" NAME="Linux Mint" VERSION="21.2 (Victoria)" ID=linuxmint ID_LIKE="ubuntu debian" PRETTY_NAME="Linux Mint 21.2" VERSION_ID="21.2" HOME_URL="https://www.linuxmint.com/" SUPPORT_URL="https://forums.linuxmint.com/" BUG_REPORT_URL="http://linuxmint-troubleshooting-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/" PRIVACY_POLICY_URL="https://www.linuxmint.com/" VERSION_CODENAME=victoria UBUNTU_CODENAME=jammy cat: /etc/upstream-release: Is a directory michael@Machine:~/Desktop$ uname -a Linux Machine 5.15.0-89-generic #99-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 30 20:42:41 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux michael@Machine:~/Desktop$ /home/michael/.local/opt/evolv/escribe-suite/launch-escribe-suite 08:26:45.0712: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'gdk-sharp, Version=2.12.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=35e10195dab3c99f' or one of its dependencies.

No issues at all here. Applied update all working normally for my 3 dna250c mods.

Hello immelman, So for installations I have done in a VM, in Manjaro Escribe gets installed to /home/user/.local/opt/evolv/escribe-suite - you "should" be able to run launch-escribe-suite. If you are asking about running SetupEScribe2_2020-06-22_US_test.run chmod the file to your user and execute it: ./SetupEScribe2_2020-06-22_US_test.run

Got it. I will set this and see what the logs say after some time. Thank you @James for all your help the past few days!

Pretty sure I did a full wipe and OS install when I picked up the NVME last year. It's obviously not as new as the OS on the B550 which I believe is Mint 20.3 Not sure what you mean about errors when connecting... do you mean usb or network? I did a grep of dmesg for you. I did see this in the syslog but that was added by their driver and not me. systemd-udevd[619]: /etc/udev/rules.d/60-brother-mfp-brscan5-1.0.2-2.rules:17 Invalid key 'SYSFS'

60-dimension_engineering.rules KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="268b", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev", TAG+="uaccess", TAG+="udev-acl" KERNEL=="ttyACM*", SUBSYSTEM=="tty", ATTRS{idVendor}=="268b", TAG+="uaccess", TAG+="udev-acl" 99-hidraw-permissions.rules KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev" I guess the only real difference is that my rule isn't tagging or adding the ttyACM rule.

No. pkexec is there but I do remember having issues with pkexec where it would not run as some applications had pkexec in their run statement, but I could run the statement in the terminal just fine. /usr/bin$ ls pkexec* pkexec pkexec --version pkexec version 0.105

getfacl /dev/hidraw2 getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: dev/hidraw2 # owner: root # group: root user::rw- user:michael:rw- group::--- mask::rw- other::--- Sorry... forgot this /etc/udev/rules.d$ ls 52-airspy.rules 99-hidraw-permissions.rules 60-brother-mfp-brscan5-1.0.2-2.rules 99-md380.rules 60-dimension_engineering.rules rtl-sdr.rules 60-vboxdrv.rules So 60-dimension_engineering.rules are there

Sweet. So I added a udev rule to force hidraw devices to be root:plugdev. Connected and downloaded without issue on the X470 I created 99-hidraw-permissions.rules under /etc/udev/rules.d with this line: KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev" Serial Number: JAFAxxxxxxxxx Firmware Version: 1.1 SP46 INT Firmware Date: 2021-12-28 Revision Code: 311104658 USB Vendor ID: 268B USB Product ID: 0419 USB Product Version: 3.0

Wow. Nice catch James! You hit it out of the park with the latest one... Actually got the Paranormal sn JAFAXXXXXXX to connect on the B550. It does not work on the X470 but I honestly no longer care about that since I can connect with the other machine. Test2.txt

Vapeboy 3000 Replay - The unit that crashes I had modded the lock screen wallpaper but made no other changes as far as I can remember. On to testing!

Installed the new version (Ver. SetupEScribe2_2022-04-26_INT_test.run) on the B550 machine. Did see something new but the results are still the same in that it crashed trying to connect and download. I attached the terminal output. Happy to report that this version also works on the X470 machine without crashing except for the Paranormal sn JAFAXXXXXXX newVersion.txt

Awesome. I will do that and get back to you James!

@Podunk Steam OK. So I did some testing with my media center machine and the details of that machine are below: OS - Linux mediactr 5.4.0-109-generic #123-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 8 09:10:54 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Linux Mint 20.3 groups: myuser adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare Machine Specs: Asus B550 Motherboard Ryzen 3600 500GB NVME SSD 1TB AData SSD 32GB Patriot Viper 3200 MHz Ram Nvidia Gforce GT-610 Video HP NC-364T Quad GB Nic (Mobo has only a 2.5GB nic that requires a driver to work) I installed SetupEScribe2_SP31_US on the B550 machine and I immediately saw things I did not see on my main machine with the x470 board. First I was prompted during installation to install Mono and related dependencies. Not a big deal since I have Mono on the X470 from a previous install. But, upon starting EScribe I was told that I did not have the necessary permissions to access the device. This was new! I choose yes to apply those permissions and was pretty hopeful that EScribe was going to work on this machine. When I connected the DNA250c and then selected connect and download, Escribe crashed upon near completion of downloading settings. Since it appeared that EScribe was connecting to the DNA250, I decided to apply the firmware update (1.1 SP45) which was successful. I then tried connecting and downloading settings but EScribe crashed upon near completion of downloading settings. The unit that was connected was sn JAFAXXXXXXX. I then installed SetupEScribe2_2020-06-22_US_test.run over the previous installation, and then pushed the 1.1 SP45 to all of the units. I connected one of the Thelma's via USB. I selected Connect and Download, and to my amazement Escribe did not crash but loaded up and allowed me to save the settings and theme. I tried this again with my other Thelma and one of the Paranormal units. All connected and did not crash EScribe. The only unit that crashes EScribe on the B550 is the Paranormal sn JAFAXXXXXXX. As I did on the X470, I copied all of the logs and included them here as an attachment to try to keep the post reasonable in size. So now here is my question... Where do I go from here with the Paranormal sn JAFAXXXXXXX ? Errors.txt

Hrrmmm... So I do have a B550 Asus board along with a Ryzen 3600 that I was building out as a media player. I put Mint 20 on that as well so let me drop EScribe on that machine and see if I get a different result from both journalctl and the command line errors I described before. So let me test this on my media machine. BTW - EScribe did work about 2 years ago where the unit would connect and then crash when I tried to update the theme or settings on the same X470 board.

No sir. I've attempted to connect using USB 2.0 & 3.0 ports. No USB C ports on the X470 motherboard. I've also tried to update the firmware as EScribe shows "connected" in the upper right corner but this just times out too.

Thanks Podunk, I did try a different cable that is known working. Also checked dmesg so I know the system is seeing the DNA250 [24909.609070] usb 1-11.6: new full-speed USB device number 22 using xhci_hcd [24909.952534] usb 1-11.6: New USB device found, idVendor=268b, idProduct=0419, bcdDevice= 3.00 [24909.952536] usb 1-11.6: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=1 [24909.952538] usb 1-11.6: Product: Evolv DNA 250 Color [24909.952539] usb 1-11.6: Manufacturer: Dimension Engineering [24909.952540] usb 1-11.6: SerialNumber: [censored] [24909.999750] hid-generic 0003:268B:0419.001A: hiddev2,hidraw7: USB HID v1.10 Device [Dimension Engineering Evolv DNA 250 Color] on usb-0000:03:00.0-11.6/input0 [24909.999834] cdc_acm 1-11.6:1.1: ttyACM0: USB ACM device I tried to push service packs to 3 of the units but this just failed saying it could not connect even though EScribe shows the unit connected.

I also noticed this in the journalctl as well.

Not seeing a 'USB' group using "cat /etc/group | grep -i "usb" returns nothing. I am part of the dialout group which should be where the serial communications are happening over USB.

Decided to run in a terminal to see what EScribe was outputting and I've added that below if someone can forward that on to the Devs. Going to try different cable too BTW - My machine hardware is: Ryzen9 3900X MSI X470 64GB Crucial Ballistix 3200mhz Ram Zotac 1060 Video 2 Intel NVME 1tb Razer Black Widow Keys Logitech MX Anywhere 2 mouse "/home/user/.local/opt/evolv/escribe-suite/launch-escribe-suite" Killed user@machine:/media/user/Data1$ Device list changed. 16:39:14.8630: Benchmark: Tab Configuration: Welcome took 45.1831 ms. 16:39:14.8822: Benchmark: File->New took 10.292 ms. 16:39:14.8834: Benchmark: Startup took 565.2474 ms. 16:39:14.9362: Benchmark: AutoConnect took 6.8696 ms.
