    Ok I found out what is wrong

    The problem seems to be with jtagd (jtag daemon) trying to read the shared library libudev.so.0
    on my machine this is located in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

    do

    > cd /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
    > ls -l | grep libudev.so

    If you only have a libudev.so.1 (which is a symlink to libudev.so.1.6.17 on my machine)

    > ln -s libudev.so.1.6.17 libudev.so.0

    See more here how to find out if this is your problem

Hi

I am in the exact same position. Everything seems to install fine, the usb blaster is recognized
but programming fails with the same message.

Note that I ONLY use USB. So it both provides power to the DE10-lite board

and is also used for programming. I don't know if this is a problem. But I have found no
information on how to debug this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Morten
