How can I refresh the firmware on linux?

[yajo10]

I like to download my firmware on the ev3's flash memory. I set my ev3 in updating mode and can discover them with my linux PC. How can I write the firmware to the ev3?

[dlech]

I've written a command line firmware downloader in .NET that runs on Linux using Mono. I haven't published the code anywhere yet, but I can share if you like.

I don't know if bricxcc for EV3 was ever made available for Linux in binary form but the source code is still around. You might be able to compile and run it.

That would be really great. Could you shortly explaine me, how I can compile the code?

[dlech]

If you mean bricxcc, I've never tried compiling it before. I presume you run make -f brixcc.mak or something like that.

If you mean my code, I will have to publish it somewhere first.

I got the bricxcc installed using this site https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Mindstorms/.
But bricxcc works not for the ev3, therefore could you please publish your code anywere?

Could you please publish your code anywere?

Sorry I forgot about this. I will try to do this soon.

You can install monodevelop and compile it, or I have attached a pre-compiled binary.

You may need to install some extra packages...

sudo apt-get install mono-runtime libglib2.0-cil libgudev1.0-cil

Then run mono /path/to/ev3fwload.exe firmware.bin (you will of course have to change the names here to match the actual path where you unziped the ev3fwload.exe file and the name of the firmware .bin file).
