  • I creating my Meshtastic network and was having trouble setting a node with the right settings and wanted to plug in the unit into my Lenovo laptop running Fedora installed from the factory.

    I click serial connection. The web app recognized the connection. Click connect. Failed. Tried different plugs and ports. Failed. Searched online and I need to do a bunch of things in terminal to get it to work properly.

    Normally I would spend a few hours figuring it out. Instead…

    Pulled out my 15 year old PC running win10. Plugged in, instantly worked.

    I reeeeally want this to be my primary laptop, but man. I am just struggling on some basic things.
