Linux udev rules

Ubuntu and other modern Linux distibutions use udev to manage device files when USB devices are

added and removed. By default, udev will create a device with read-only permission which will not

allow to you download code. You must place the udev rules file at /etc/udev/rules.d/49-teensy.rules

The file is tar & gzip compressed. Here are sample commands. Please adjust as necessary, for

example the download directory.

cd Desktop

sudo cp 49-teensy.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/

tar -xvzf teensy_linux64.tar.gz
