Linux EScribe Suite Beta Thread

That screen looks like the Reuleaux RX200 which is not a DNA

Seems i was not patiently enough. 

Now the installer worked despite the error-message.

I can start it.

I connected my Wismec Releaux after updating the udev-rules and reloading them.

Still get the message "Kein kompatibles DNA Gerät verbunden."

means "No compatible DNA device connected"

Check your USB cable. I've run into this a few times myself, and it's always related to a faulty cable that charges fine, but doesn't transmit data properly. If you are sure your Releaux has the DNA 200 board that would be the first thing I'd check.

I've posted up SP18. Mostly small bug fixes, not a major change for Linux.

[D_N_D]

Just a tip for those not familiar with installing.

I'm on a semi fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04
Download Escribe 18
Open Terminal & cd to your download Location
type chmod +x filename.run (filename being the name of the escribe file) Press enter
type ./filename.run  press enter
It will check for the packages needed and if not there will ask if you wish to install Press Y and then Enter.
it will install packages needed automatically (at least on my ubuntu Desktop install)
The command it uses is (apt-get install mono-complete gtk-sharp2)
afterwards if the installer doesn't pop up just arrow up and press enter again. IE ./filename.run

Hopefully this Helps others.  As I'm no linux pro but I do know how to look up things to do what I need.

I just installed this on Zorin OS 12 without any problems once I read on how to install it.  So grateful to have this. I wanted to thank everyone who worked on making EScribe for Linux available for us.

[James]

I've posted up SP19. This fixes a few small bugs in EScribe. It also includes early firmware for DNA 250 Color and DNA Go.

Thanks for the update @James, just tried it out.

Curiously, this update and SP18 is very unresponsive - I've had to revert to SP17, and that works flawlessly. Did anything change recently that might help me debug?

[James]

Unresponsive in what way? Just slow? Hmm. I've switched to a new code obfuscator and a newer compiler.

Same issue for me on Manjaro Linix (an Arch derivative). Last update (sp18) takes forever to load and is generally unresponsive. I reverted to sp17 with much better results. I personally don't have time to debug. Hopefully, this update resolved the issue.

Yeah, sp18 is extremely slow to launch, load and respond to input. Using the older version works flawlessly in my system.

Yeah, it takes much longer to start up, and it's as if any click actions take a few seconds to complete. 

Would it be possible to try the new SP with the old compiler please?

[D_N_D]

Can confirm 18 takes about 2 minutes to load on ubuntu. 

17 was fine. Never really tried 18 as it have been doing other things. Ie ircd web and other server related things.

Took about 30s to open about describe with no info on version. So I believe its 18 lol

My theme could have changed text as I hate white backgrounds. Due to it burns my eyes.

 

Just installed 19 and taking minutes to open also.

So something changed. Possibly the compiler and gathering everything.

Added update

[James]

I've updated the download. SP19 should no longer be extremely slow. Let me know how it works for yall

[bluegray]

Yes! Updated SP19 is working fine again, thanks @James

[aegis965]

Arch user reporting in. This WORKS! Awesome! The only bug I find is that if I open device monitor first, then ecigstat won't find my device. Or is this expected behavior?

[GHammer]

Just got my Linux box setup and SP19 is fine with my 200s 250Cs and 75C

Thanks!

For anybody attempting to do this on a Raspberry Pi on Raspbian (Stretch), you need to install mlocate first. 

Looking at the install script, I would have thought that with this missing it would just attempt to install the dependencies anyway, and it did launch a window in which to do so but it didn't seem to do anything. No big deal, just install mlocate and, for good measure, the dependencies first, then run install script and it all works beautifully!

Thanks for the work and support on this project!

Has anyone figured out how to get EScribe  running on a Chromebook (chromeOS) since they can now run Linux apps?

Linux apps on ChromeOS.

[UTF_8x]

This is just pure gold... Running perfectly under Arch Linux on 4.20 (ayyyy lmao) kernel with the Orion...

I have a problem on Debian, it loads the program but after I plug the mod in and it gets to 100% it just crashes and shuts the program down.

[p0ns]

Hello, thanks for this piece of software. I've used it in mac and ubuntu 18 and it's worked perfect.

Now i wanted to run it on my raspberry pi and i managed to get to Escribe directly by running mono Escribe.exe

The problem is, i havent been able to enter device monitor, and whenever i try to run it, from the intro menu or from escribe, i get a "xdg-open: unexpected option '--launch'" 

I imagine theres another launcher being used in my Ubuntu installation since I have xdg-open in there and it also doesnt have a --launch option, and I don't have this launcher in my raspbian install.

Any hint will be appreciated

[bluegray]

#!/bin/bash

export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=
mono /home/user/.local/opt/evolv/escribe-suite/main/EScribe.exe --launch DeviceMonitor &

I use this to launch Device Monitor directly.

I want to add my thanks to the many others for the Linux version.  I was able to install it easily in Mint 19.1 Tessa.  It has worked flawlessly.

[CodeWolf]

I just have to say, you all are awesome!  You can add me to your loyal fan/customer list.  The EScribe software worked perfectly out of the box (download) in Xfce4.12 under Xubuntu x86_64.  The EScribe software also alerted me to an update for the Evolv DNA Go then downloaded and applied it without any issues.  I absolutely love this device, its very well thought out.  I really appreciate all of the hard work you guys have put into this, it shows!  I'm also a Sr. Software Engineer and IoT developer in the SF bay area and understand how hard it can be to get devices to play well with everything.  I just wanted to send a heartfelt thank you for everything you are doing for the vape community and us Linux users!  +1 for Linux!
