QDL flashing in ubuntu 18.04

Can QDL flashing be done in 18.04? If it is possible, what are the packages to be installed to support that? I am facing a XML parsing issue. I have attached the logs below:

LOG: ERROR: XML not formed correctly. Expected a < character at loc 0
received response with no parser
LOG: ERROR: XML not formed correctly. Expected a < character at loc 0
received response with no parser
LOG: ERROR: XML packet not formed correctly. Ran out of room looking for TAG
received response with no parser

Any suggestions? @Loic @danielt
Thanks,

I don’t run ubuntu but I have not seen any reports of problems with 18.04.

The required packages are described in the docs: Qualcomm USB flashing tool - 96Boards

You could try enabling qdl_debug (-d option) and see if the logs offer any additional clues.

QDL started working after disabling ModemManager. Thanks @danielt
