Thanks John. I love the circular reference.johnb wrote:
If a brand-new LeoStick appears in your Christmas stocking, just follow this:

Following the advice about creating the hardware directory in the sketchbook directory and unpacking the leostick directory into it produced zero effect. Selecting Board from the Tools menu lists all the boards in /home/pogo/arduino-1.0.5/hardware/arduino/boards.txt.
Overwriting that file with the boards.txt file from the LeoStick directory lists just the Leostick variants, so *that* is the hardware directory that should be used, and finally, appending the contents of the original boards.txt to the Leostick version produces a list of all boards, headed of course by the Leostick variants.
So, it's up, it runs, but the install instructions could use some tweaking.
Oh. I found, BTW that selecting Arduino Leonardo as the board worked ok for getting blink and a few other simple examples running. Is there any difference that the software would notice?
Pogo.
