has anyone run tunerstudio with linux and usb cable?
 

I have spent last 8 hours trying to get it working, no luck.

Detect does not find anything and tunerstudio works fine with my older xp laptop. I would really like to get it to function on my faster lenovo x201 with linux mint with newest kernel and packets. I can get the ftdi2xx drivers to read from the ms3pro but the ms3pro does not like to connect? Not much info on this over intardnet. First 7 hours went before I could even figure how to get the ftdi2xx working (need to rmmod VCP drivers first)

I'm a total linux noob too, but I can follow instructions and that's how I got the drivers to function. I also needed to install some compiling packets to get it working but those were easy to diagnose with error codes like 'missing stdio.h'

linux mint is based on Ubuntu , try searching the Ubuntu forums or knowledge base

the Ms3pro does not like something the Linux is doing

some debug here for USB mounting ect

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB

Does the ms3pro show as a flash as it has sd-card in it? So mounting problem perhaps?

I installed a hardinfo app and it does not show any com ports or usb devises?

I need to look at your link, thanks

sorry I thought the noncom was between your laptop/tablet and the MS3pro

Well it is but only from ms3pro to laptop it seems as I can read the eeprom of the ms3pro from my laptop (at least I think it did that in the second post)

F1 will start soon so cant focus on this much longer today

Ha

I'm in Austin at F1 track at decent Corporate booth on front straight

nice 75 degrees F wind is picking up and will have some impact

Ive done Monza twice, hockenheim, san marino ( Imola) and hungary. The sound was a big downgrade so I havent gone back in few years.

I will of cource root for Kimi and Valtteri but strangely enough Nico also has a Finnish passport ( being Kekes son)

I'm disappointed F1 has turned in to tire mgmt instead of who can drive the fastest

I went through this trying to run on linux and mac native. I've ended up running a windows 7 vm under vmware fusion on my mac. it also worked under virtualbox on ubuntu.

I had to find ancient drivers for my usb to serial converter, but it works now.

It did not work on my linux wine install either.

Forget about wine, get virtualbox

I don't think it will work. Probably need a direct serial conversion.

You could also consider MegaTuniX but I think development stopped on it.

Huh, I think I will need to look at the virtualbox or is that also waste of time? My x201 has win7 lisence at the bottom. Is there win7 media available or do I need to find one that came with some laptop? IIRC xp did not install on it with some blue screens from some PCI driver.

I intalled a virtualbox win7 but it does not work as the usb cable does not get recognized and I cant install the drivers.

BUT

ms3pro support helped with this and now I have connection with MINT (they have a test install on MINT). I needed to run tunerstudio from terminal with sudo so its a permission problem anyway. I hope to get the correct group info so I can run it also from icon but this was a major brakethrough.

My account permissions so far (non working)

You may be able to run it in windows XP compatibility mode on any windows 7, 8.1, or 10 machine. Running native or as a virtual operating system using the virtual box program in flavor of the month Linux or MAC.
Takes about 15 seconds to find out.

I installed a virtualbox and win7 on it. Could not get the usb or com ports to work with ms3pro. Now that I got my ftdi2xx drivers to work from linux terminal I will use that. Virtualbox was also much slower than native linux, painfully slow I might add.

I just bought a expresscard rs232 unit with oxford 952 chipset for my lenovo and hopefylly I can get it to work on linux too. It has native serial PCI communication so it should take out all possible communication errors that are trouble some with rs232/usb adapters. That would also take care of using hex-com vcds with my audi.
