Can Yun USB talk to Mega 2560 USB?

Hardware Arduino Yún
#1

Hi,

I want to control an Ultimaker2 via the usb connection. UM2's usb port is supposedly an Arduino Mega 2560. When I plug a Yun usb to the UM2... I can see the usb device via lsusb:

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 058f:6254 Alcor Micro Corp. USB Hub
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 2341:0042 Arduino SA Mega 2560 R3 (CDC ACM)
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 058f:6366 Alcor Micro Corp. Multi Flash Reader

But looking at /dev/tty* doesn't show any new ports.

Any ideas?

@mdoan7,

I don't know, but you may need a driver. Try dmesg and see what was installed.

also goggle Arduino SA Mega 2560

Remember, this is an OpenWrt kernel, not a stock or standard kernel. Meaning, it is unlikely you have any drivers installed - beyond the minimum.

If you need a driver, these links might help.

I found the kmod-usb-acm shortly after posting the question and it's working nicely now. Thanks everyone for the detailed responses. Awesome forum never fails.
