Anyone used the linux variant of the minION software? (minKNOW)?
Does it work well?
Thanks,
Andor

I installed it because the Windows version was being annoying. The problem was solved on Ubuntu16.04, but we haven't started a run yet so can't I comment on that. -
I have a small screen, so need to shuffle the windows around to be able to click important things (e.g. the button to start a run), but otherwise it works fine.Comment

Using Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS AMD64
Did you guys get this install error:
Setting up minknow-map (1.5.5-1~trusty) ...
insserv: Script minknow is broken: incomplete LSB comment.
insserv: missing valid name for `Provides:' please add.
The minKNOW GUI seems to load without error (even from terminal; no errors/warnings).

No, but I should note that I still have to update our installation to the latest version.Comment

@cement_head: Can you check the suggestion in this post? It may be completely unrelated but worth a check.Comment

I'm pretty sure that's it, I can't find the bash script to edit.Comment

Yes, I got that warning. It doesn't affect the running of the program, just means that the people who prepared the package were a bit lazy with fulfilling all the deb package requirements.Comment

Okay, thanks. I cross-posted this bug/warning to the Nanopore Community Forum.Originally posted by gringer View Post

I have been having problems with the linux version as well. I am able to successfully install minKnow on my ubuntu machine but even though I have multiple USB 3 ports none of them are able to detect the sequencer. Did you do any additional installation for it? Is there something I am missing?Originally posted by wdecoster View PostComment

You have to reboot after installation.Originally posted by pranalis View Post
If you've done that, without starting the MinKnow software, does your computer (OS) see the sequencer?
Open a terminal and type lsusb and see if it's listed; it should show up as per the screenshot, the second <$ lsusb> command show the minION listed as the first device.

For some reason I can't link a image from FLICKR to the forum.
Basically it should show up as:

Well I have tried that too. The system doesn't detect the device at allComment

Perhaps you are using an unsupported linux distro?Comment

Okay, so the issue is NOT the minION, nor the minKNOW software, the issue is your machine.Originally posted by pranalis View Post
Do other USB thumbdrives work?
One thing to check is at BOOT, select the BIOS menu (F2, or F7 or F12 or DEL) and make sure that the USB hub is (i) enabled and (ii) enabled for LEGACY as well. Reboot and try again.Comment

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...Today, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
