Chromebook and linux IDE issues

Postby peterla1@rogers.com » Thu Dec 14, 2023 7:20 pm

I hope someone has experienced this and can provide assistance.

I bought my grandson an ESP kit for his birthday and I'm trying to get him going with using the Arduino IDE on his Chromebook. I've successfully got the LINUX IDE 1.8.19 running on the Chromebook. Additionally, to test, I can connect and successfully compile/download to an Arduino nano.

Next I copied the ESP32 link into the IDE preference as normally done. I also installed the ESP libraries via the library manager without any issues (I think). This process works fine on my PC and I can compile/download to Arduinos and ESP32s without any problems.

Now when I try to compile a simple ESP32 sketch (after connecting the ESP32) on the Chromebook (even a blank one) I get many compilation errors (mostly about modules not being found).

Any help would be appreciated.
