Unable to get Arduino UNO connect to ACM0

[doktor5000]

I'm using ThinkPad W701, Mageia 4 (latest update) Arduino UNO and Arduino WiFi shield (original).
When connect the Arduino UNO to a USBport the Arduino UNO can't find ACM0 or any other Serial port. The serial port selector is gray as in this image:

Anyone that know howto connect or howto select the Serial Port?

Did you add your user to the dialout group?

MageiaControlCentre>System>Users>Groups and edit the group dialout and add yourself if not in it


Edit:

Log out then back in again for it to take effect.

[janpihlgren]

I tried your sugestion.
But I'm already a member of the group dialout

[pete910]

Forgot to mention the lock group too

If it still does not let you, run in a console and post the output here.

[doktor5000]

Or simply try to run it as root if you suspect that it's a permission issue. But as it's a graphical application be sure to use

Code: Select all

su -

to switch to root to obtain a full environment.

Here is my result of your proposel:

No, it's not. You should run it as root. Read my post again, compare to what you did, then try again.
You tried to switch to user arduino, which does not exist. Just run

Code: Select all

su -

as I've shown, and then as root try to run your program again.

[doktor5000]

Is this what you want?

Code: Select all

Yes, at least it now shows an error message, I'd say. There are various threads related to that:
