What other driver should be loaded? It is registered using the cypress_m8 driver which treats it as "HID->COM RS232 Adapter". I don't see any specific handling in the Raspberry Pi kernel, so I'd expect that it works there the same there. As such, it should appear e.g. in /dev/by-serial/by-id.

Apologies… that’s the image from pi. Nuc image:

[sairon]

And my apologies as well, at first I have not checked the kernel config for generic-x86-64 and CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_CYPRESS_M8 is indeed not enabled there. That will be an easy fix.

[dtomcat]

Thank you. I’ll test it when released I’ll report back with results, but I’m sure it’ll be good

[dtomcat]

Confirmed working. Thank you again!
