Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH
Tool/software:
I know that at the moment it is not supported by Texas Instruments, but here is what I did to make Code Composer 12.08 and Uniflash 8.7 work on Ubuntu 24.04:
- Dependencies problems and where to find the packages from previous Ubuntu versions:
- libtinfo5:
- libtinfo5_6.3-2ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb (packages.ubuntu.com/.../libtinfo5)
- gconf2
- gconf2-common_3.2.6-8ubuntu1_all.deb (mirrors.kernel.org/.../gconf2-common_3.2.6-8ubuntu1_all.deb)
- libgconf-2-4_3.2.6-8ubuntu1_amd64.deb (mirrors.kernel.org/.../libgconf-2-4_3.2.6-8ubuntu1_amd64.deb)
- libpython2.7
- sudo apt install libnsl2
- libpython2.7_2.7.18-13ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb (packages.ubuntu.com/.../libpython2.7)
- libpython2.7-minimal_2.7.18-13ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb (packages.ubuntu.com/.../libpython2.7-minimal)
- libpython2.7-stdlib_2.7.18-13ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb (packages.ubuntu.com/.../libpython2.7-stdlib)
- libtinfo5:
- After downloading dependencies, install them manually (keep in mind that you won't get security updates for them):
- sudo apt install libtinfo5_6.3-2ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb
- sudo apt install gconf2-common_3.2.6-8ubuntu1_all.deb libgconf-2-4_3.2.6-8ubuntu1_amd64.deb
- sudo dpkg -i libpython2.7-stdlib_2.7.18-13ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb libpython2.7-minimal_2.7.18-13ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb libpython2.7_2.7.18-13ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb
- Install Uniflash without dependencies problems:
- During installation, there was a problem running postinstall script automatically. It is necessary to allow normal user to identify and access debug probes. I did it manually by running the script in the folder where Uniflash was installed:
- sudo ./postinstall.sh

- Install Code Composer Studio without dependencies problems:
- Check if Code Composer can detect your debug probe by running:
- ~/ti/ccs1280/ccs/ccs_base/common/uscif/xds110 -e -v
