[SOLVED] Arduino Pro Micro is not being detected by the Arduino IDE

SOLVED: The board was shipped without the leonardo bootloader even though it was advertised as such. I solved this by using ESP8266 NodeMCU dev board and flashing a bootloader with it.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arduino

I've installed the `arduino` AUR package, added myself to the uucp and lock groups(and tty, since I found that in some other forum issue) and modprobed `cdc_acm`.

After rebooting and plugging the chinese clone into my USB port, this is the output of `dmesg`

[58965.060348] usb 3-2: new full-speed USB device number 32 using xhci_hcd

I can further see this with `lsusb`

Bus 003 Device 032: ID 03eb:2ff4 Atmel Corp. atmega32u4 DFU bootloader

However Arduino IDE is not detecting it at all (greyed out port) - http://i.imgur.com/TiQzA3K.png

Running Arduino IDE with sudo makes no difference at all and there are no errors in the terminal.

I didn't see anything with `journalctl -xe` that was anyhow relevant to the arduino.

EDIT: Also there are only numbered tty's in /dev, except for ttyS0-S3.

EDIT2: Found out how to access the Pro Micro but I still have no idea how to use it within the IDE
