I was trying to upload code for a blinking LED. It is a new Arduino Uno board. Any further help will be appreciated.I got the following error:

Info.: OS- Ubuntu 16.04

Software: Arduino IDE 1.8.5

I could not see any port.

I have tried dialout. But still it is not working.

I also have a confusion, i.e. the Programmer menu shows AVRISP mkll.

enter image description here

If anyone wants any information, please do comment.

Error:

An error occurred while uploading the sketch avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "COM1": No such file or directory`

Ubuntu and other Linux operating systems don’t name the serial ports “COM1” or similar.

They use special files like

/dev/tty.[something]

The [something] depends on the USB device driver. The IDE should list available serial ports in the Port selection menu.
