Udev creates files such as /dev/ttyUSB0 owned by group uucp so adding the user to the uucp group gives the required read/write access. The arduino board communicates with the computer via a serial connection or a serial-over-USB connection, so the user needs read/write access to the serial device file. To use SparkFun boards such as the Pro Micro you need to download their board definitions. You might need to install perl-archive-zip or you will get an error about missing crc32. To fix the installation you can follow this github post.

To use the Intel Galileo boards with Archlinux install the Arduino IDE and download the Galileo tools package via 'Tools->Board->Boards Manager'. Instructions can be found here.Īlternative you can install arduino-pinoccio AUR from the AUR. Pinoccio Scouts can also be programmed using the Arduino IDE. You can always switch between the different cores in the 'Tools>Board' menu. If you still want to use the older arduino-core you need to install it in the board manager. To use AVR boards such as the Arduino Uno you can install arduino-avr-core optionally to use archlinux upstream avr-gcc instead of the bundled older avr-core. You may need to load the cdc_acm module.Add your user to the uucp user group (more information in the #Accessing serial section).The offline documentation for the IDE can be installed via arduino-docs. Install either arduino for the official IDE or arduino-cli for the official CLI.6.7 Crashing with after a fresh install.
