davedarkoI couldn't find the picoprobe with openOCD until I flashed it with a pre compiled picoprobe.uf2 file instead of compiling it myself. If it works, it works - I guess.
found the related issue where I got the working picoprobe.uf2 got from: https://github.com/raspberrypi/openocd/issues/71
Basically pointing to this site where you can download the probe firmware:
So apparently there's a tinyusb bug that will break the usb hid example and throw something like this at you:
assertion "ep->active" failed: file "~/Projects/pico/pico-sdk/lib/tinyusb/src/portable/raspberrypi/rp2040/hcd_rp2040.c", line 164, function: hw_trans_complete
This has something to do with the debug mode and you need a flag to run cmake first before compiling:
PICO_SDK_PATH=~/Projects/pico/pico-sdk cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release make -j8
I have yet to find out what the difference between -j8 and -j4 means but hey, that up their worked.

The -j parameter tells Make how many threads to spawn, when it can compile things in parallel. It makes sense to set it to the number of cores your processor has, or, for some stupid magical reasons, double that on some architectures. In any case, the only thing it will affect is the speed of compilation and how high your laptop will hover on its fans.
Are you sure? yes | no
ha thanks, good to know! :) I have that magical M1 thing that doesn't seem to need fans, only when recoding blu-rays
