The project is really interesting, but I can't get it to work, it doesn't recognize the usb port.

What adaptor do you use to connect your MMDVM Hat to PC? What does journalctl -fshow right after you connect it?

Hello Inga. First of all, I'm not using a native Linux machine, I'm experimenting with the Linux subsystem for Windows. Then the hardware part is composed by an MMDVM_HS_HAT and the interface board for the usb port MMDVM_HS USB HAT, it is the first image that you put in the project. Well, as for the journalctl, only later at night when I get home can I see it, then I'll send a printscreen. Thanks for your interest and feedback.

Hi Henrique,

I didn't try with WSL as I only use Linux as my host system. I intend to implement a dockerized solution in near future, so it is truly system independent. The existing one is just a start, an MVP.

There also is an existing solution with Windows native MMDVM, by UA6AHP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bsv2L6HUxxA

Thanks Inga for the video link. Hi! I didn't notice anything, but pictures are worth a thousand words. I'll try it out tonight. Your project is still very interesting, more than ever it makes perfect sense, at a time when there is a huge shortage of raspberrys, so, as I don't have any native machine for linux, for now I'm going to stay at interest in the project as I follow it. Thanks for everything and sorry for any inconvenience. Happy Christmas holidays.

Also, have you followed the documented path for attaching USB devices to a WSL instance?

I never tried it myself, just googled quickly :)

No, I haven't had time yet, the day should have 25 or 26 hours, hihihi. I'll see later
