#Technikable not functioning after enabling USB logging

Hi all,
I'm just copy-pasting what I wrote in the hardware channel, so the right eyes can hopefully see what's going on.

I was struggling with BT connectivity for my Technikable, so Pete suggested I enable USB logging, as seen here: https://zmk.dev/docs/development/usb-logging

I did so (as indicated in the Kconfig file output: https://github.com/hanhanhan-kim/zmk-config/actions/runs/6685004193/job/18162852358 ), but I can't seem to see any relevant outputs (see screenshot with the tio command).

Now my keyboard is perpetually flashing a blue light on the top right corner. I can't even reset with the hardware reset button, so I can re-upload a new firmware without the USB-logging on, so I can use the keyboard in the meantime.

In either case: a) how to access the usb-log output? b) how can I go about uploading new firmware without the logging turned on, so i can use my keeb in the meantime?

You are double tapping the hardware reset button right?

What is the output of lsusb?
While not familiar with the technikable in particular, I'm guessing that
a. slow blue flashing means it's in bootloader
b. fast blue flashing means it's searching for a USB connection

well, i guess i can go back to trying to get bluetooth working on my technikable lol. something tells me that the keyboard being non-functional after putting CONFIG_ZMK_USB_LOGGING=y in the .conf file is not expected behaviour?? 😂

#

i've cleared all my bluetooth profiles btw

ok well, i guess i'll just start logging in my troubleshooting steps here.

Overarching goal: how to get bluetooth working on technikable

Solution suggested to me: enable USB logging in ZMK .conf file. https://zmk.dev/docs/development/usb-logging
doing so requires me to run something like sudo tio /dev/ttyACM0. except i'm not sure if my technikable is located on physical serial port /dev/ttyACM0

New sub goal: figure out which physical port my technikable is plugged in.

Response to sub goal: run ls /dev before and after plugging in keyboard and get the difference. the answer i got was 22d21 < hidraw2 . i have no idea wtf this means . doesn't seem to be a tty device?? try plugging in stuff into the tio command:

Current state: how to get physical address of my technikable so i can run sudo tio /dev/BLAHBLAH . will then try to run the tio command with the USB logging on the technikable enabled, once i get my physical address on the technikable. plz help?
