ubuntu can't find serial port












0















I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS downloaded from Microsoft store and Arduino IDE. I'm trying to use ESP32 in Ubuntu, but Ubuntu can't find the serial port.



In Arduino, Tools > Port is greyed out.
In Windows, I can see ESP32(COM7) and it works.



lsusb outputs nothing.
dmesg only outputs [0.009121] Microsoft 4.4.0-17763.379-Microsoft 4.4.35.



I tried:




  • kernel update

  • add the user to dialout

  • install cp210x driver

  • Low level I/O stuff that needs kernel functionality do generally not work with WSL. Think your serial ports belongs to this category.
