@DrAzzy, I develop mainly on Linux and it seems that Linux machines don't have this problem (at least the Ubuntu ones I've been using).
@pango My guess is you're having problems because you're running in a VM (under Windows?) and it may be windows' USB support that is causing you problems rather than Linux itself...
Espruino is a JavaScript interpreter for low-power Microcontrollers. This site is both a support community for Espruino and a place to share what you are working on.
