How to connect?
In most cases you just need to connect it via USB and put the device in PC mode on the switch.
Sometimes the udev rule is missing and you will need to add it:
- Open a terminal window
- Type
sudo echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTRS{idVendor}=="057e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0337", MODE="0666"' | sudo tee -a /etc/udev/rules.d/51-gcadapter.rules > /dev/null - Type
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules - Sometimes you will need to take out and reinsert the USB connector after you have reloaded the rules.
