Arduino IDE Setup Complete | Generated by AI
Done. Arduino IDE 2.3.10 installed and configured. Here’s the summary:
What was installed:
~/Apps/arduino-ide.AppImage(193M) — downloaded from GitHub releases~/.local/share/applications/arduino-ide.desktop— shows up in your app menu under “Development” / “Electronics”~/.local/share/icons/.../arduino-ide.png— app icon
What was configured:
- dialout group — you’re already a member (active immediately for new logins)
- brltty removed — that braille display daemon was installed and would’ve grabbed CH340 clone ports. It’s gone now.
- libfuse2 was already installed, so the AppImage can run
To launch:
- From app menu: search “Arduino IDE”
- From terminal:
~/Apps/arduino-ide.AppImage &
When plugging in an Arduino Uno:
- Genuine Uno →
/dev/ttyACM0 - CH340 clone →
/dev/ttyUSB0(driver is kernel-built-in, no install needed) - Check with
ls /dev/tty{ACM,USB}*
Note: The dialout group change takes effect on next login. If you want to use it in this session without logging out, run newgrp dialout in the terminal where you’ll start the IDE.
