Debian 12

[FalsePhilosopher]

First and foremost, thank you for your interest in making qFlipper better by reporting bugs!

Describe the bug
Qflipper would not connect to the FZ on debian 12.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Connect fz to qflipper on debian 12

Expected behavior
To connect or at least suggest the install rules commands instead of just saying it's broken and to restore the FW.

Actual behavior
Would not connect
Additional troubleshooting
Tried reboots, I fixed it by googling qflipper linux and found this blog post detailing the fix https://sysadmin102.com/2023/06/installing-qflipper-on-debian-linux/

cat << EOF | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/42-flipperzero.rules
> #Flipper Zero serial port
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5740", ATTRS{manufacturer}=="Flipper Devices Inc.", TAG+="uaccess", GROUP="uucp"
#Flipper Zero DFU
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", ATTRS{idProduct}=="df11", ATTRS{manufacturer}=="STMicroelectronics", TAG+="uaccess", GROUP="uucp"
EOF

There should be more documentation on different linux distros and qflipper an what needs to be done to get qflipper working.
Here's my log anyway even though I fixed it.

There should be more documentation on different linux distros and qflipper an what needs to be done to get qflipper working.

There are instructions on setting up device permissions in Readme.md and the official documentation.

More so, qFlipper itself displays a (graphical) error message if it fails to open the serial port due to insufficient permissions.

Did they not help?

As I said it did not show the install rules error message, but instead shows restore firmware error.

Same happens with Mageia 9 (64 bits). It works with AppImage, though.
