When lauching arduino there is a message which say we need to be a member of groups dialout and lock. For "dialout" it is OK For "lock" this group do not exists in MCC But we need also to be member of "uucp" If clicking on "Add" button it does not write in the groups. It does not ask yo become root ?? Then we have to choose a directory and after we have not arduino. I have becomed member of "dialout" and "uucp" and then I have tested with arduino downloaded from the site and it work.

for the lock group, can you install lockdev ?
i workarounded, i will fix better after
fixed in next arduino ( using pkexec )

I have tested Arduino with java-sun. The initial configuration works but the group "uucp" is missing. To be member of "uucp" is needed to uploaded program in hardware. Then Arduino do not start, I have to install the packages : librxtx2.1 and librxtx-devel and then Arduino start. But in the console I have : [jacques@localhost ~]$ arduino java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: gnu.io.RXTXCommDriver.nativeGetVersion()Ljava/lang/String; thrown while loading gnu.io.RXTXCommDriver java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class gnu.io.RXTXCommDriver thrown while loading gnu.io.RXTXCommDriver ^C[jacques@localhost ~]$ and the app do not recognize the hardware. I have downloaded the soft from the site : it work fine.

can you test with openjdk ? we don't support sun java
The problem is the same with openjdk 1.6 and 1.7 If the pack downloaded from Arduino's site work fine, it's not a problem of java but the integration of Arduino in Mageia.

Actually there were two different issues with Arduino in Beta 1: 1. Setting up user to be member of "dialout" and "lock" groups. Now in Beta 2 starting Arduino asks for adding user to these groups. After slection to add user to groups and entering root password Arduino starts ok. 2. Still not fixed: serial port is not accessible from Ardiono. This is problem with rxtx package. Mageia Beta 2 ships with RXTX version rxtx 2.1-7r2 marked as stable on RXTX download page http://rxtx.qbang.org/wiki/index.php/Download. However, as I found somewhere on forums this version has the bug (at least with java openjdk versions both 1.6 and 1.7). Possible workaround is to use RXTX version 2.2pre2. Although it's marked as prerelease, it works fine both with Arduino and with software, developed in our company. RXTX download page has following note about 2.2pre2 version "TODO: The 2.2pre2 bins contain the 2.2pre1 jar file and the 2.2pre2 native lib which causes a mismatch warning". I downloaded and installed 2.2pre2 version libraries instead of shipped rxtx2.1 and Arduino works fine now. I think the best solution is use RXTX version 2.2pre2 instead of 2.1.7.2 for following Mageia packages: rxtx librxtx-devel librxtx2.1 (will became librxtx2.2) lib64rxtx-devel lib64rxtx2.1 (will became librxtx2.2)

Ref to bug 5411 this isn't solved in Mageia 2 RC.
