Hi,

Firmware-Linux.exe worked successfully on Debian11 with udev rules at
viewtopic.php?t=771&start=20#p6883 but this is not current issue.

It is problem that officialy released DM-1801.bin binary is not working on my
DM-1801, programmed by any programming utility --- on Windows, on Linux/mono and
on Linux/python.

What do you think about this problem?
There is no clear answer for my question until now.

Again, this is no programming tool issue. Released binary's matter.

Hi,

I told you that I did successfully flashed the released bin file.
Also, I could imagine the number of reports we would had if it was not working.


Cheers.

Hmm, my issue is the first case of the not-workig problem. But there is no hint to solve it.

BTW, recently I found the souce code of R2022022801 is replaced, what happened?
It looks SDK is updated and Makefile is deleted.

I could not find any announcement about source code replacement. Where is it?
Removing Makefile without any comment looks this project untrustworthy
even if building with newlib-nano/picolibc is difficult, I think...

Sorry ?! Do we owe you anything ?

You're the only one who had that problem flashing that pre-built firmware. I tried to explain you multiple times the only validated build method, and why using anything but redlib is bad.
Makefile was working in the past, but not anymore since it was linking larger libc, and to avoid any further problems it was deleted.
Like it or not, but XPresso + SDK was/is/will be the only build method.
