#dialout — Public Fediverse posts

And now I have #MeshCore on my #Heltec

That makes me a happy man. Except of course I still live out in the sticks and am not close enough to anyone to actually see them.

But I shall be trying both #Meshtastic and #Meshcore to see which gives me anyone to chat with.

Thanks to everyone who gave helpful comments. I fully accept that I didn't need to compile anything to make this work, but there were several options along the way that might have needed that.

Also...

1. The instructions mentioned nothing about #Linux need me to join the #dialout group
2. I had to reset the #heltec into bootloader mode. This might have been as it was pre loaded with #meshtastic, but that would have been good to know.
3. I had to change the baud rate on the UART connection using #Putty
4. I had to install a #Chrome based browser that I really don't want to have.

But it was a fun task and I've learned a fair bit. 🙂
