i followed the instructions:

https://randomnerdtutorials.com/install-upycraft-ide-linux-ubuntu-instructions/

Once i have activated the virtual environment, i should be able to list out packages using pip list and verify version using python --version.

that said - i continued:

python3 -m venv myVirtEnv

root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# python3 -m venv myVirtEnv

root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# source myVirtEnv/bin/activate

(myVirtEnv) root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# python --version

Python 3.5.3

(myVirtEnv) root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# pip list

DEPRECATION: The default format will switch to columns in the future. You can use --format=(legacy|columns) (or define a format=(legacy|columns) in your pip.conf under the [list] section) to disable this warning.

pip (9.0.1)

pkg-resources (0.0.0)

setuptools (33.1.1)

(myVirtEnv) root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin#

well i guess that i now can proceed with the futher steps

i cannot oppen serial - i cannot see any ports

RE: installing uPyCraft IDE on Mx-Linux - Larz60+ - Oct-14-2019

don't forget serial communications requires that conditions match on both sides,
usually the one that does not match is baudrate (transfer speed), it must be the same on both sides.
The best way to first establish (usually only needed once to get handshaking correct) serial communications is by using a serial communications stand alone package like putty: https://www.putty.org/
