Hi again.
Did Nik mean chmod o+w or chmod a+w? I looked to the manpage, a+w is
writeable for everyone. It can solve the message "failed to open
'/etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp'". But I learned that user shouldnt
write in /etc/... folder.
When I made chmod a+w /etc/tqt3 does it affect on /etc or only in
/etc/tqt3? I dont want to destroy my system. :/
For the new readers, this is my problem:
I have ubuntu 18.4 with trinity R14.0.5. If I want to start the arduino
ide from arduino.cc (download and extract arduino-1.8.7-linux64.tar.xz)
there comes the splash-screen for one second and it crashes with this
message:
~/arduino-1.8.7$ ./arduino
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS:
TQSettings::sync: failed to open '/etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp' for
writing
What I have to install or change?
I logged in today with the ubuntu standard desktop and the arduino ide
works great.
deloptes points in devel to $CLASSPATH, the var in empty in my shell.
./arduino is a bash script.
Thanks for the help.

Hi!
I have 14.0.6~pre + openjdk-8-jre-headless + arduino 1.8.3. I remember
that I once saw the error you described, but that's been quite a while.
You might try "chown a+w " as a last resort :-/
but this has nothing to do with OPs problem and it is a bad idea to give
permission to everybody to write in /etc (you mean chmod o+w).

Because it pissed me I downloaded the tool and ran the install script.
After this I typed ./arduino and the gui started.
Looking into the install script it might be that it creates links in your
current environment, so I sugggest
1. login in default ubuntu
2. run uninstall.sh
3. login in TDE
4. run install.sh
5. ./arduino
6. it should work

Hi,
Thanks for the help. The error is the same:
TQSettings::sync: failed to open '/etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp' for

Strange thing, I use arduino since many years. It works always without
the install.sh script.
I solved the problem with 'sudo chmod a+w /etc/tqt3', it starts. But I
am not happy with it.

Sure that is not the best solution, but it get's things done. I remember that I had
this problem quite some time ago. It was solved in later versions of TDE, so you might
want to use the Slavecs "bleeding edge" repository.
Maybe this could also work - leaves just one file for your user r/w in /etc/tqt3:
$ touch /etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp
$ sudo chmod 0755 /etc/tqt3
$ arduino

Hi again Nik,
I have R14.0.5 the latest stable. Is it possible to install the latest
unstable to test and switch back after that? I am afraid that config
files will become unusable for the stable as result.

I would be quite surprised if any config file changes in a incompatible way - but I have
never moved back to stable. To be sure copy your ~/.trinity to ~/_trinity-save.

Hi MLR,
the problem with start arduino ide is definitely not caused by writing
to /etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp. This message only diverts attention
from the real problem. Please do:
1. apt-get purge kgtk-qt3-trinity
2. log out from TDE
3. log in again to TDE
4. try to run arduino ide

where in trinity control center is this located? i ask not because of the

years, my flatbed scanner, using epson's iscan software, doesn't work
anymore. starting it from a terminal to catch the errors, i get this:

Hi Dep
Try grabbing the firmware binary from the windows drivers and have it load
when you call the scanner.
You will have to check out some howtos to get it right.
This is assuming it's a firmware loading problem like mine was.
Find the conf file for your scanner and add something like
# Path to the firmware file
# This file comes with the Windows driver
# The scanner won't work without it
option artecFirmwareFile /usr/share/sane/artec_eplus48u/Artec48.usb

Thanks very much -- I'll do this if I can't get the native software to
work. What puzzles me about it is that the Epson-provided Linux IScan
application has always worked reliably here, and only now when I invoke it
does it explode.
