[SOLVED] How to check current firmware version

Post by derf »

Hi,

is there a way to check the current Crazyradio firmware version on the command line?

I tried out the UI flash tool (cradioFlasher.py) which seems to be able to read out the version, but keep getting the following error:

Code: Select all

QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory
QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /home/<myusername>/.config/ibus/bus
Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address. 
IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon 
Could this be related to my old Python version (2.6.5) or my old Kubuntu version (10.04.4)?

Regards,

Fred

Hi,

This looks like Qt errors. If all you need is to check the dongle version you can do it with lsusb:

Code: Select all

lsusb -d 1915:7777 -v | grep bcdDevice
