Hi,
I want to start with the new Pico microcontroller board on my Raspberry Pi 4 running Arch ARMv7 with LXDE desktop. I read that you need Thonny IDE for that so I tried installing thonny from AUR but that gave me an error "could not install missing dependencies".
I also use Pyzo IDE for my Python projects so I thought if I could just install MicroPython from AUR but that gave me "not available for 'armv7h' architecture", same as for micropython-git package.
When I connect the Pico to my Pi 4 it opens the filemanager and I can upload the MicroPython firmware after which it disconnects, It is supposed to be running MicroPython now but I have no idea where to go from here without Thonny IDE. I could not install MicroPython either.
The only thing I found that after installing minicom I could access the Pico (with the firmware installed) using "sudo minicom -o -D /dev/ttyACM0" and play around with some MicroPython commands but I have no idea how to write MicroPython scripts from here.
I'm a little lost here, this is also my first experience with a microcontroller board.
