SPI Flash and Linux again :(

[Peter Aus Wyk]

Hello all,

 

after I searched through the forums and tried different options to no avail I would like to ask here for an opinion

 

My problem is programming a papilio one 500 SPI Flash within Linux, esp. Kubuntu 13.10

Flash works ok and the papilio-loader-gui shows no errors

For me all looks good so far.

 

I disconnected and reconnected the USB cable without success. Within a Win 7 64bit everything works like a charm (that is Flash and SPI are configured successfully)

 

Any ideas? Thank you for reading

 

Best regards

Peter

thank you so much, indeed that was the solution. I even didn't noticed that there is a preference menu

 

All the best and merry christmas
