arduino on ubuntu 11.04 (beaglboard)

Development Tools IDE 1.x
1

Hi all,

I have installed ubuntu 11.04 on beagleboard xm. I am trying to communicate the beagle board to the arduino. I have successfully installed arduino. But when i try to upload the program to the arduino board, the IDE shows some error:

"arduino-0022/hardware/tools/avrdude: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected"

Presently i am uploading using the arduino 022 IDE. Can any one tell em how to solve this error.

thanks,
srinivas

Hold the shift key while uploading. You might see some more information.

Thanks for the information:

here is the output:

arduino-0022/hardware/tools/avrdude -C/home/user1/Downloads/arduino-0022/hardware/tools/avrdude.conf -v -v -v -v -patmega328p -cstk500v1 -P/dev/ttyUSB0 -b57600 -D -Uflash:w:/tmp/build4886593012905675812.tmp/BlinkWithoutDelay.cpp.hex:i

Check your source code. If you are trying one of the examples, it is best to copy/paste into the arduino IDE. It looks like you forgot a '(' where it is needed. :wink:

Hi,

I checked once again, copy pasted to a new file and tried. It seems there is no problem with the code. Still getting the same error with the avrdude. It is generating the hex code and i feel the problem is with the avrdude.

Also, i tried with older versions of arduino. Could you please help me a bit more to locate the problem. any blind solution?
Thanks,

Please verify that avrdude itself is not the problem by running manually in a console. Maybe the config file is corrupt.
