Wait, we need a driver.
How would I do that.

Might I suggest this site here. I've downloaded tilp2 (in .deb format), and installed it with no problem. When you install it, it should be able to download and install all dependencies (drivers) as well.

TiLP2's DEBs install the drivers, but don't do this part:

Quote:
Now we have to setup the rules for using the USB sub-system. We are going to give the group 'tilp' access to the TI USB interface. Using your favourite edit as root create the following file

nano /etc/udev/rules.d/25-ticables.rules


Put the following 4 lines in that file and save it.


Code:
BUS=="usb", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0451", SYSFS{idProduct}=="e001", MODE="660", GROUP="tilp"
BUS=="usb", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0451", SYSFS{idProduct}=="e003", MODE="660", GROUP="tilp"
BUS=="usb", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0451", SYSFS{idProduct}=="e004", MODE="660", GROUP="tilp"
BUS=="usb", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0451", SYSFS{idProduct}=="e008", MODE="660", GROUP="tilp"


Create the group and add the user account to the tilp group. Replace USERNAME below with the name of the user you want to add to the group. Repeat the usermod command for each user you want to give access to.

groupadd -f tilp
usermod -a --groups tilp USERNAME


The next time USERNAME logs in they will be part of the new tilp group.

Tell him it won't. Creating a group and some udev rules won't affect anything else. If for some strange reason it does, you can always remove the file.

He thinks he will need a library that makes him reinstall every app.
He did that, but the option will not show up
