Proxmark3 (RfidResearchGroup firmware does not work on Ubuntu 20.04)

Hello!

I reinstalled the operating system on Ubuntu 20.04
And I followed the instructions for installing and configuring my device.
But I got problems again.

1.Update
sudo apt-get update

2.Requirements
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends git ca-certificates build-essential pkg-config \
libreadline-dev gcc-arm-none-eabi libnewlib-dev qtbase5-dev

3.Clone Fork
git clone https://github.com/RfidResearchGroup/proxmark3.git

4.Change Directory
cd proxmark3

5.Get the latest commits
git pull

6.Install the blacklist rules and add user to dialout group.
sudo make udev

7.Restart
Restart Ubuntu

8.Enter proxmark folder
cd proxmark3

9.Create a file Makefile.platform in the root directory "proxmark3" of the repository:

# If you want to use it, copy this file as Makefile.platform and adjust it to your needs
# Run 'make PLATFORM=' to get an exhaustive list of possible parameters for this file.

PLATFORM=PM3OTHER
# If you want more than one PLATFORM_EXTRAS option, separate them by spaces:
#PLATFORM_EXTRAS=BTADDON
#STANDALONE=LF_SAMYRUN
#STANDALONE=LF_ICEHID

10.Clean and Compile
make clean && make all

11.Check Connection
Once this is complete run the following comands to make sure the proxmark is being picked up by your computer.
sudo dmesg | grep -i usb

Re: Proxmark3 (RfidResearchGroup firmware does not work on Ubuntu 20.04)

While I am not an Ubuntu user (so there could be better ways), I downloaded 20.04 for a test.
I noticed the same error about the invalid serial port.
I checked the /dev folder and I could see the ttyACM0 there.
When I run via the sudo command, it seems to work.

Looking at the permissions of the ttyACM0 device

mwalker@ubuntu:~/pm3/proxmark3/client$ ls -l /dev/ttyA*
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 166, 0 Apr 26 17:28 /dev/ttyACM0

We can see the owner is root and the group is dialout and everyone has no permissions.
So i added myself to the group and logged off and logged in again.

sudo adduser mwalker dialout

After that, i can use the proxmark without using sudo

Note: The above action is support by the install guide : https://github.com/Proxmark/proxmark3/wiki/Ubuntu-Linux

If he did read and follow the instructions that shouldn't have been an issue

Re: Proxmark3 (RfidResearchGroup firmware does not work on Ubuntu 20.04)

Hello Rema78, check the doc as Iceman suggests, if after the same problem, try with minicom
sudo minicom -s
then A / enter then put / dev / ttyACM0
then save the configuration> proxmark3> enter
then exit minicom.> reboot.
try to see if connection is correct.
Have a good day.
