On Linux, installing Python & all the associated packages is straightforward. Typically you can install them from a package manager, if you are using Fedora Core or similar ('''TODO: Confirm these work)''', just type:
<pre>$ sudo yum install python3 python3-devel python3-libs</pre>
On Ubuntu or similar:
<pre>$ sudo apt install python3 python3-dev python3-libs python3-configobj python3-setuptools python3-pip
</pre>
<h4> Getting the AVR Toolchain </h4>
Many of the tutorials use the AVR XMEGA microcontrollers as a target. In order to compile code for these targets, you'll need the AVR toolchain. This is easy to set up:
<pre>
$ sudo apt-get install avr-libc gcc-avr</pre>
==== Getting the Arm Toolchain ====
Many of the tutorials use the STM32F303 Arm microcontrollers as a target. In order to compile code for these targets, you'll need the GNU Arm toolchain:
$ sudo apt install gcc-arm-none-eabi
Some versions of Ubuntu (Ubuntu Bionic and likely before) provide a GNU Arm toolchain that links incorrect files during the build process. To install a working version of the toolchain:
$ wget https://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/newlib/libnewlib-dev_3.0.0.20180802-2_all.deb
$ wget https://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/newlib/libnewlib-arm-none-eabi_3.0.0.20180802-2_all.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i libnewlib-arm-none-eabi_3.0.0.20180802-2_all.deb libnewlib-dev_3.0.0.20180802-2_all.deb
<h4> Hardware Drivers </h4>
The ''driver'' for Linux is built in, however you need to allow your user account to access the peripheral. To do so, you'll have to make a file called <code>/etc/udev/rules.d/99-newae.rules</code> . The contents of this file should be:
<pre># CW-Lite
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2b3e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ace2", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"
# CW-1200
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2b3e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ace3", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"
# CW-Nano
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2b3e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ace0", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"
# CW-305 (Artix Target)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2b3e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c305", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"
# CW-CR2
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04b4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="8613", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="221a", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0100", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"
</pre>
Then add your username to the plugdev group:
<pre>$ sudo usermod -a -G plugdev YOUR-USERNAME</pre>
And reset the udev system:
<pre>$ sudo udevadm control --reload-rules</pre>
Finally log out & in again for the group change to take effect.
