Unable to get Arduino IDE to upload code to the "Arduino Nano".

I have checked this is working on Ubuntu Linux and also my MacBook Pro, so it's not the Arduino Nano device.

The error I am getting with opensuse is:

avrdude done.  Thank you.

An error occurred while uploading the sketch
------------------------------

To check the USB device is plugged in and exists

$ lsusb

Do this with device not plugged in, then plugged in to see it appear.


Check the USB device is there (plug arduino to usb):

$ ls -l /dev/tty*

Look for "/dev/ttyUSB0"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plugin Arduino Nano to USB
2. Run Arduino IDE
3. In IDE menu, go to File > Examples > 01. Basics > Blink
4. In IDE menu, go to Sketch > Upload
Actual Results:  
Upload error, "avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x8a"


Expected Results:  
Should upload code and control the LED flashing rate.

Setting up Linux permission

sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER

(**) Make sure to reboot!

Setting up Arduino IDE

With Arduino Nano plugged into USB, from the IDE

Menu Tool > Board > "Arduino Nano"
Menu Tool > Processor > "ATmega 328 (old bootloader)"
Menu Tool > Port > "/dev/ttyUSB0"
Menu Tool > Programmer > "Arduino as ISP"
