Cannot flash Au

I promise I have found the actual issue now. Usually I have 2 Lab windows open, one for a bigger project, and one to test modules individually. When 2 or more windows are open, the RAM loading works fine, but when trying flash loading, or erasing, I get this error: TDO didn’t match. Got FE expected 31 with mask 11 at byte 0

When one window is open, flash works perfectly. I do not know why. Like I said before, I am new to electronics. So far, this error appears in .19 and .20 for me, and I have not tried any other versions yet.

Interesting, good find!

It likely has to do with each window doing periodic sweeps of connected devices. I’ll look into it.

I knew I could be useful.

Edit: Also when I let Labs run for a while, at one point it does not let me do anything but close it

I just tried it natively on Arch and in a Ubuntu VM and couldn’t reproduce it.

Are you running in a VM or anything else notable about your setup?

I do not think that there is too much different than the usual, Jammy Jellyfish is incomplete though, I do not have Appimage, and besides Labs, KiCad and LTSpice running through Wine, there are no appimages for Vivado, ISE, etc. Also it is unusually laggy here. Some things I can not pinpoint here but I do not think there is any big differences, besides that I had to create a launcher to give Labs the VIvado location. There is a lot missing that I used to have that disappeared when I went from 24.04.1 back to Jammy, so that is severely annoying. Maybe it is a unique issue.

Maybe you can check the specific error?

Update: I have moved back to 24.04.1 (Edit, I am on LTS, maybe that is a factor?), and the problem still exists. All I know is that it is there, I do not know why.

I have 2 old Aus, maybe it is a problem related to the old Au’s hardware? If I buy some of the new boards, I could test for that problem.

The JTAG interface is identical on the new boards.

When you say it’s still there, do you mean only when you have two open or always?

Are you running Ubuntu in a virtual machine or is it running directly on your computer?

Its running directly on my computer, and it is there when i have 2 or more tabs open. Also, when I leave Labs for a while, at one point, it does not allow me to de anything but close it.
