Hi,

i have a problem connecting to the printer running under linux ubuntu 18.04. I tried to install the usb driver CH340 as said here: viewtopic.php?t=60612

but running the installation with sudo make it throws and error:

Code: Select all

make -C /lib/modules/4.13.0-36-generic/build  M=/home/sebastian/Downloads/CH341SER_LINUX  
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/4.13.0-36-generic/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
Makefile:5: recipe for target 'default' failed
make: *** [default] Error 2
has someone struggled with the same problem?

greetings!

Hello.
:mrgreen:

After updating the UsbIds database and displaying the devices connected to the usb port, do you get correct and complete information?

Below you have two sample links that I found ... :roll:

i dont get it updated. it returns an error as i wrote :o
I also setup an Ubuntu 16.04 version on my laptop still the installation of the driver does not complete and the usb connection is not recognized.
But in the lsusb i can find the usb connection.

Sebastian, that is an individual case.
Try to solve it yourself, it concerns the linux environment. :roll:
You can ask for the support of the community on the ubuntu forum.

Follow the bugs in the compilation you are trying to do.
