Thanks for your answer. I would strongly recommend to be clear on the documentation that you don't support "Linux" broadly, but just Ubuntu (maybe debian too). I would have saved me lot's of hours.

Hi,

I am trying to setup the dev. environment in OpenSuSE Linux, but, even though it says Linux, I only find support for Ubuntu.

This is correct, we support Ubuntu Linux:

https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/installation/recommended_versions.html#additional-nordic-sw-tools

You can try to download a version for your chosen linux distribution from the link that is posted here:

[quote user=""]WARNING: JLinkARM DLL not found. Devices that require J-Link will not be recognized correctly, and J-Link operations will not be available. Install SEGGER J-Link from www.segger.com/.../. Currently tested version: JLink_V8.76.[/quote]

Please note that we cannot guarantee that the toolchain will run on other linux distros than Ubuntu.

Kind regards,

Håkon
