everytime i try to upload code to esp it says "A fatal error occurred: Could not open /dev/ttyUSB0, the port doesn't exist" in Arduino how can i fix that error (by the way i'm on Linux)
everyone has this problem, you would think the answer would be everywhere
open the IDE with no board plugged in.
Tools >> Ports, and note what you see.
plug in your board.
repeat Tools >> Ports. you should now see a new port, ACM0 or AMA0 or sometimes ACM1 - whatever, connect to that port.
open the serial monitor
clear output
hit the reset button.
if you see a wall of English language gibberish, you're in
In a terminal, run lsusb without the board connected and next with the board connected. Please post the changes here.
Next run dmesg -w without the board connected. The program will not return to the shell. Next connect the board and observe if there are any error messages or maybe a reference to BRLTTY.
