I suspect that the file you downloaded via wget doesn't have its executable bit set, the file (add_udev_rules.sh) should be in the directory that you ran the wget command from. Opening a terminal (if not opened any more) and typing
Code: Select all
ls -al |grep add
Code: Select all
chmod +x add_udev_rules.sh
To run the script, with elevated privileges that isn't in your path
Code: Select all
sudo ./add_udev_rules.sh

should add the e'x'ecutable bit.Code: Select all
chmod +x add_udev_rules.sh
I came also with this issue with my new Ledger Wallet and, although I am an old linux user, I didn't suspect that the scrip downloaded without executable permission!
You saved me a big time! Thanks again!!
