nRF Connect Linux - not able to find ttyACM0

[Alexey Roslyakov]

I couldn't use nRF Connect (BLE) under Linux, after updating the FW, it tries to open /dev/ttyACM0 but fails to do so.

1. Not a "permission" problem: the user is in uucp and dialup groups already. Even tried to change permissions on /dev/ttyACM0 to 777 - still the same problem.
2. I observe some led activity on PCA10000 when it tries to "open" the port.
3. I see it detected FW version, so "Not able to find" is definitely misleading error message.

I'm ready to provide strace log, feel free to PM me.

Thank you.

Hi,

PCA10000 is not supported in nRF Connect. Use PCA10031 if you want a dongle. Alternatively you may use any of the following DKs: PCA10028, PCA10040 or PCA10056.

It's better to have the meaningful message "Sorry, your HW is not supported", if possible.
