  4. Hi, I am unable to use fastboot command from terminal in Linux Mint 19, but it works with the same Android device in Linux Mint 18.3. This is after having installed both the adb-tools and adb fastboot. The device is recognized in recovery mode, but not with fastboot devices. I get: no permissions (user in plugdev group; are your udev rules wrong?). Same device on Mint 18.3 is able to execute and recognize fastboot on a different machine. This is a rooted Android device, the bootloader unlocked (Nexus 5 hammerhead). Seems like Mint 19 is more strict?

  10. I'm running Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS, and I finally got it to where it recognizes the Samsung TM290 when I plug it in, but running the 'adb devices' command gives back an empty list. I've killed and restarted the adb server, even checked to make sure no other services that are running would be conflicting. Any advice?
