Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Forum Index : Microcontroller and PC projects : MMEdit V5.3.4

I assume that this was in Windows?

No, this was on linux (Ubuntu 20.04). And it was the "previous" 5.3.6 build, not today's one (I understand that that is only an update to MMCC).

(I also have a system running Ubuntu 24.04 at home, and I will take this evening to load MMedit 5.3.6 on it and confirm, since it currently has 5.3.3). I hope my issue is not due compatibility between current MMedit builds and the "old" linux 20.04, since 20.04 has always been very reliable for me.

Thanks for that.
I can rule out any funny Windows thing that's the cause.
That leaves me as the problem.

My Linux VM is 20.4 but I have recently loaded 24.04 on a spare PC.
This enabled me to fix the serial port issue and a few other things.
The test MMCC was compiled on that PC but I have gone back to the VM so I will stay with a combination that I know works.

@Jim,

Tried all evening on 2 systems (ubuntu 20.04 and 24.04) could not reproduce the lockup. Sorry if I mislead you.

I can go for days without seeing a lockup.
That is what makes it difficult to diagnose.

If it happened once on Linux that IS something to consider.
