You are doing some great tutorials chad! We know the VM 0.5 is a bit outdated and a new updated one will be released with the CF2. Or at least short after, the workload now is a bit insane... Thanks for saying so!! I can imagine the workload needed for the CF2.0 product launch. The current VM is fi...

No votes at all...?

And I can not open VM 5.0 on my VM Player (for WIN64). It always stop boot after Xubuntu logo showed. I try several method, but gave up now. If you know how to solve this problem, please kind tell me. I posted this for VMWare Fusion (Mac)... Maybe the solution is similar for VM Player? Basically it...

I'm curious about which controller profiles people use the most. If you use a custom one, what is it based on? How are your mappings configured?

FWIW, Ubuntu 13.10 (which the Bitcraze VM is based on) met end-of-life on July 17, 2014. That's why you can't get updates anymore.

I finally got around to posting my walkthrough on resizing the main drive so, if you want a tutorial, it's available here.

Double-click the "Terminal Emulator" icon on the desktop and enter the following three commands:

Hi all, I've been playing around with the neopixel_dev branch to support a NeoPixel ring mod I'm doing. The built firmware from a fresh clone of neopixel_dev HEAD is just over 60K (60456) in size. I've noticed when I have "Verify flashing" checked in the Python client during programming, t...
