I am running the latest version of Raspbian on an R Pi 5 and trying to use a CH348 serial hub with it, but it needs the driver.
All the instructions and guides haven't worked, and I get errors about directories not existing or the driver file not being in the right format.
* Driver: CH34x
* I also tried following this guide https://github.com/WCHSoftGroup/ch9344ser_linux only to get that:
/lib/modules/6.6.62-v8-16k+/build: No such file or directory.
I want to install the driver to use this hub board for a project I have been working on.
* Error1:
-shellsession
$ make
make -C /lib/modules/6.6.62-v8-16k+/build M=/home/amp/Downloads/LINUX/driver
make[1] : *** /lib/modules/6.6.62-v8-16k+/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [Makefile:7: default] Error 2
* Error2:
-shellsession
$ rpi-source
File "/usr/bin/rpi-source", line 111
except urllib2.HTTPError, e:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: multiple exception types must be parenthesized
**New Details:**
* When I run lsusb
the board shows up:
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 1a86:55d9 QinHeng Electronics USB2.0 To Multi Serial
* But the ports do not register/show-up when I run ls /dev/tty*
* dmesg

So it sees the hub is there but not making the ports accessable.
