Followed this guide and I get errors upon installation. NewPac BM1387 USB Stick Miner User Guide

Those instructions are for cgminer, not bfgminer.
That said, try the instructions here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5355470.msg58200639#msg58200639
It should help you compile a working gekko driver you can use.

I'm trying to make it work for an ASIC BlockEruptor. I will definitely try this out when I get home from work. Fingers crossed!
If you're only using a BlockErupter, then you may need to replace this line: CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native -fcommon" ./autogen.sh --enable-gekko --enable-icarus
With this one: CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native -fcommon" ./autogen.sh --enable-blockerupter
Per the README: https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer/blob/master/README
To ensure you enable the driver as part of the build for the executable.
Best of luck!
Everything is working now, except the device cannot be found. Are these considered blockeruptors? That is what it was listed when I bought it.
Additionally, I followed this code.
$ cd ~/git/vthoang/cgminer/ $ sudo usermod -G plugdev -a
whoami
$ sudo cp 01-cgminer.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/ $ sudo reboot
Try this:
sudo cgminer --ndevs
If it lists the actual device(s), then your issue is related to your OS not granting your user account access to those USB devices.
You can shortcut troubleshooting by trying a test run of the devices with sudo prepended to the command like the above, but realistically that's not a great long-term solution.
sudo cgminer --ndevs
Sadly, I get this error.
sudo: cgminer: command not found
When I go to USB Management, it does state that there is one device. However, it does not start the mining process.
