How to run mission planner on debian

I had a lot of trouble getting mission planner to run correctly on my linux 64bit debian sid system.

After lots of fiddling and tweaking I found installing ONLY mono-runtime and libmono-winforms2.0-cil makes mission planner run fine. 

So for those of you wanting to run mission planner on debian (usually valid for ubuntu too):

  apt-get install mono-runtime libmono-winforms2.0-cil

will probably do the trick.

 

After that you should assiociate it with mono to start from the file manager or just run

mono ArdupilotMegaPlanner10.exe

from the commandline.

  • Hi

    In whith serial port can I connect it??

    thx

  • Unfortunately version  1.2.12 of the mission planner does not work anymore on mono due to a mono bug. Version 1.2.14 does show an error message:

    3692521417?profile=original

    And after this a black screen is show. If you click on the navigation tab the naivgation screen is show, and if you click on Flight data tab again the flight data screen is shon, but is no responding.

    So unfortunately, no luck yet...

  • Unfortunately it fails on my computer:
