Sudo modprobe ti_usb_3410_5052.ko fails with modprobe: FATAL: Module ti_usb_3410_5052.ko not found in directory /lib/modules/4.18.0-25-generic Insmod ti_usb_3410_5052.ko fails with insmod: ERROR: could not load module ti_usb_3410_5052.ko: No such file or directory I went looking for a likely driver and found ti_usb_3410_5052.ko lurking down in /lib/modules/4.18.0-25-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/serial I messed about with some other ardunio flavors I had:Ī couple days of googling and a whole lot of lsusb and dmesg suggested that, even though I'm running a linux kernel, the likely problem is that the clones are using CH340/CH341 chips and my system wasn't recognizing them - even though linux nominally has drivers as part of the kernel. There was no available serial port and efforts to open the serial monitor resulted in an error message.

I then moved on to another little project that I wanted to put on a Wemos D1 R1. The first little project worked just fine using an Adafruit Huzzah esp8266 and an Adafruit FTDI Friend (No USB on the Huzzah). With little else running on it, I thought it would make a nice Everyday Carry for light duty arduino development. So I believe nobody should now need to pay $30 for an Arduino.I recently installed Lubuntu (based on Ubuntu 18.10) Arduino IDE 1.8.10 on an old Acer netbook I had lying around. They were selling Arduino Mega for $10 and Raspberry Pi for $20. I mostly use the board for training my students so it is a great buy at this low price.īTW, I purchased two Unos in Micro Center shop in Houston, USA, two months back for $6 each. After installing the driver, I had to disconnect and reconnect the board and then everything was fine. I quickly zeroed in on this topic and downloaded driver file from link given for Chinese manufacturer.

There were extra holes next to ICSP connector for Tx, Rx, +5V, 3.3V and SCL, SDA. It had a few nice things besides low price - additional holes to mount male pins, on all connectors, adjacent to female header, so that we can use female-to-female connectors to link up other Indian accessories having male header pins. This is first time I bought a low cost, about $7 Arduino Uno clone from eBay.in. I am a regular buyer/user in India, of Arduino boards of all varieties, since 2011.
