Description of problem: When trying to upload a 'sketch' to an Arduino Micro device the IDE automatically resets the device, then there is a small time window where the device accepts the upload. By default, ModemManager interferes and tries to find a modem at that serial port - such that the upload fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open Arduino IDE, journal -fa 2. connect Arduino micro 3. upload a sample sketch Actual results: You see how the reset works (tty device re-emerges, LED blinks slowly). Then the ModemManager engages: ModemManager[904]: <warn> (ttyACM0) could not open serial device (2) ModemManager[904]: <warn> (Plugin Manager) (Iridium) [ttyACM0] error when checking support: '(tty/ttyACM0) failed to open port: Could not open serial device ttyACM0: No such file or directory' [..] ModemManager[904]: <warn> Couldn't find support for device at '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.2': not supported by any plugin During that time the Arduino IDE aborts with: avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "/dev/ttyACM0": Device or resource busy avrdude: ser_send(): write error: Bad file descriptor Problem uploading to board. See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions. Expected results: Upload should succeed, e.g. with something like: Sketch uses 4,862 bytes (16%) of program storage space. Maximum is 28,672 bytes. Global variables use 151 bytes (5%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2,409 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2,560 bytes. Additional info: Telling ModemManager to ignore all Arduino devices via udev fixes the situation, e.g.: # cat /etc/udev/rules.d/77-arduino.rules ATTRS{idVendor}=="2a03", ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE}="1" # udevadm trigger (snippet is from: http://starter-kit.nettigo.eu/2015/serial-port-busy-for-avrdude-on-ubuntu-with-arduino-leonardo-eth/ ) After that uploading works as expected. Thus, it would be great if Fedora would include such a udev file. Either as part of the arduino package, the avrdude package or even as part of the udev base rule set.
Related: The old bug #861620 is about a similar issue. In that case the exception was added to ModemManager, i.e. to /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/77-mm-usb-device-blacklist.rules The current bug is about another vendor string, though.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Updating the bug as it's still relevant in F23
