What do you mean by saying:
QuoteI'm trying to upload code on my arduino uno to olinuxinot but I'm geting error:

What are you trying to do?

sorry, there wasn't so much info in my post.
I am running the latest version of debian on sd-card and I m trying to get som communication between arduino and the A13 board.
I have installed the arduino ide on the board, and connected to the usb com port and now trying to upload som testing code to arduino but I get this message: avrdude stk500_recv() programmer is not responding
(installed even librxtx-java and chose the port /dev/ttyS0)
Should the arduino work only by doing this what i ve done? ( I am really new in linux:)
thanks for any reply

The serial port uart1 is used by uboot/linux, so you can't use it 'as-is' ( see https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=1788.0 (https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=1788.0) )
solutions ( that come to my mind )
- use an usb to serial converter ( you need drivers, if not included in your distribution )
- free uart1 from uboot/linux
- use uart3

Hi,

I've checked active uart on my A13 board and there is only active ttyS0. How I can enable other port?

There is another thread (https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=1030.msg6385#msg6385) explaining this ( post #8 I think, didn't try myself ).
In short you need to enable uart3 in the script.bin

P.S. uart0 is referenced sometimes, but according to A13 datasheet (https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/blob/master/HARDWARE/A13-PDFs/A13%20User%20Manual%20-%20v1.2%20(2013-01-08).pdf) only uart1 and uart3 is present
