Hi,
I have had an i3 working well using Pronterface on Windows XP. I am trying to move over to Ubuntu but am having issues connecting to Reprap successfully.
In Pronterface I am connecting to
/dev/ttyACM0. Computer seems to know that reprap is there but htting connect brings back 'attempted to write invalid text to console' in Pronterface and not much else happens.
I have installed Arduino stuff I think. If I go into Ardunio IDE>Serial monitor I get a load of gobbley-gook characters back. Not sure if this has anything to do with it?
Anyone know what might be causing this? I am a newbie when it comes to Linux. I have not reflashed ardunio (RAMPS1.4) reprap - cant see anything in configuration file that is relevant.
Any pointer much appreciated - dont really want to go back to winXP
