I’ve had some reports of issues developing for the Pico from the Raspberry PI 5. Having finally got hold of RPI5 I investigate in this Video. S
etting up using the quick setup approach on Raspberry PI OS is straightforward. Ubuntu requires the installation of two prerequisite packages: raspi-config and pkg-config I ran into no problems with the build process or bootsel flashing.
SWD flashing via a Raspberry PI Debug probe fails through on both Raspberry PI OS and Ubutnu. This is due to a missing udev rule. Create file /etc/udev/rules.d/80-pico.rules containing:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ATTR{idVendor}=="2e8a",ATTR{idProduct}=="000c",MODE="666” and then reboot.
If you are getting started into developing for the Pico then do check out my Introduction course over on Udemy.
