A PPA (Personal Package Archive) is now available for Ubuntu 16.04+ to install Kvaser Linuxcan as a DKMS (Dynamic Kernel Module System) module. This saves you from having to rebuild/fix linuxcan after every new kernel upgrade. To install the PPA, do the following:
After a reboot, linuxcan should work as before and automatically re-build on a new kernel install. New versions will become available on this PPA as they are released by Kvaser. |
Used when configuring a driver launch file to work with a specific Kvaser interface.
cd /usr/doc/canlib/examples
./listChannels
The output should look similar to:
CANlib version 5.30 Found 4 channel(s). ch 0: Kvaser USBcan Light 4xHS 73-30130-00831-1, s/n 10761, v3.9.467 (mhydra v8.30.995) ch 1: Kvaser USBcan Light 4xHS 73-30130-00831-1, s/n 10761, v3.9.467 (mhydra v8.30.995) |
The number following the "s/n" in each of these lines is the CAN Hardware ID (serial number).
