Electrum // Ledger Nano S // Linux --> Grrrr....

[ttookk]

Hello,

I tried to get my Ledger working with Electrum, but it didn't work. I have the distinct feeling, this is a Linux problem, because it wasn't exactly plug and play (but that's ok, I mean, Linux and all. I know what I signed up for…).

Anyway, a bit more detail:

- Running a Debian distro.
- Plugged in the Ledger, went through the setup (i.e. PIN, passphrase and so on)
- Downloaded Chromium and installed Ledger Manager
- Ledger Manager didn't find the Ledger
- Downloaded the udev rules, did some poking around and got it to work.

Now, The Ledger Manager, Ledgers wallet and Myetherwallet can find the Ledger, but Electrum still can't.

Yes, I've set "Browser support" to "No". Just to be sure, I checked both settings, because, you know…

This is not exactly an "Oh my god, I just buried 12 BTC, please halp!!!" issue, but I'd prefer to work with a wallet I'm familiar with.

Any ideas?

Don't see any good solution yet but there are other people also having the same issue as yours that there is no device connected when using electrum am i right?
Try to disconnect connect it again and maybe it can recognize with electrum..

My guess is driver not installed properly..

Thanks for the reply.

The linked post refers to the Ledger Nano, though, not Nano S. They are pretty different, I think.

Hmm, I guess I'll have to monkey around a little more tomorrow.
