Hi,
Just to add to the comments.
I have a bunch of radio type devices I plug into LL, that all work.
You can check if it is recognised by LL
Before plugging in the device, open a terminal(crtl+T), and type:
You should get something like:
Now plug in the device, and do the lsusb command again
This is with one of my Radio devices plugged in:
You can see a new device FT232. The most common devices are FTDI & Prolific
One final thing, I did have an initial issue.
The way some USB devices communicate need you to be added to a certain "Group"
To avoid any possible issues, I suggest you do that before plugging in the device.
Do the following command in a terminal. You only need to do it once, you can do this now.
Just replace username with your LL username.
