Sketches not uploading to Micro from Ubuntu 14.04
I have a Micro and Ubuntu 14.04. I have successfully uploaded sketches to the Micro using IDE 1.0.6. Thus that combination should work.

I suggest you get the sketch compiling OK. Then hold down the Reset button on the Micro, start an upload with your other hand, and release Reset when it says "Uploading". 



Try typing

lsusb | grep Arduino


I found with a sketch uploaded which opens the Serial port:

Bus 003 Device 087: ID 2341:8037 Arduino SA

If you hit Reset and wait a second, then do the lsusb again you see a different device:

Bus 003 Device 086: ID 2341:0036 Arduino SA

That one (the 0036 one) is the one it will upload to. You might get 0037 rather than 0036 because I reflashed the bootloader to be the Leonardo one, but the concept is the same.
