Downloaded the d2xx library from this site Works fine on Windows7 with python2.6

List of extracted files. In Ubuntu 10.10(Maverick Meerkat) I cannot proceed further. how to install the files so that I can import d2xx library

$make
Makefile:1: Makefile.conf: No such file or directory
make: * No rule to make target `Makefile.conf'. Stop.

$sudo python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):

Solution

  • It appears that the PyUSB interface for FTDI drivers only provides support for Windows at the moment.
