June 26, 201511 yr I am trying to install a SureElec 20x4 Character LCD device that use a CP201x USB-Serial controller. When I plug the device in a USB port I see it detected with dmesg as : usb 1-5: new full-speed USB device number 7 using xhci_hcd usb 1-5: new full-speed USB device number 8 using xhci_hcd lsusb shows: Bus 001 Device 008: ID 10c4:ea60 Cygnal Integrated Products, Inc. CP210x UART Bridge / myAVR mySmartUSB light However, I get no /dev/ttyUSB0 to tell lcdproc to use. My tougths are that is is missing the proper driver which seeems to be downloadable here in patch: http://www.etheus.net/CP210x_Linux_Driver or here with a makefile: http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/pages/usbtouartbridgevcpdrivers.aspx or a guide to recompile kernel here : http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/75558/ubuntu-make-fails-with-no-such-file-or-directory-lib-modules-3-4-0-build/75584#75584 But, I dont know where to take it from there. Any help is welcome.
June 26, 201511 yr Tom, where can we look into the current and future kernel config? That way we know if we will need to request or build our own modules now and in the future? I'm thinking of sticking an arduino as an LCD screen + USB HID to my unRAID server.
June 26, 201511 yr Author Added that driver for you to unRaid kernel for 6.0.1 release. Thank you very much sir. You just made me happy reading this.
June 26, 201511 yr Author Added that driver for you to unRaid kernel for 6.0.1 release. Can I push my luck and ask for a ballpark ETA for 6.0.1 ?
June 26, 201511 yr Author Check for a plugin update. Not certain what you meant by this. Can you explain ? Thanks

I'm not seeing anything show when I plug in usb esp32. It should show up as available via usb serial etc. Instead am loading via my mac. CP2102drivers. As a side is there a way to see what drivers are installed in unraid 6.12? Many Thanks
