Arduino IDE on Ubuntu & Raspberry Pi Pico (2040)

Colleagues, please tell me how can I load the compiled code to Raspberry Pi Pico (2040)?

IDE installed on Ubuntu. When connecting Pico, Ubuntu sees not a COM port, but a disk.

The IDE requires a COM port and cannot load a compiled program without it.

How can I solve this problem?

At the bottom of the ports menu you should see UF2. Select the UF2 option.
The IDE will copy the code to the pico drive. I use IDE 1.8.19 so I can only assume it works the same way on IDE 2.x.

Unfortunately, I don't find it. Can I post a screenshot on the forum?

Thank you. I had something old and incomplete connected in the Board Manager. I connected the actual description and there immediately found what you were talking about. The test sketch has loaded, the light is flashing.
