Is there a "readme" or other instructions with it?

If the 'driver' is a kernel module, then you might need to "modprobe" it
to get it active assuming that the driver is already installed into the
right place.

All should be explained in the instructions for it.


Or, it might already be in there and you just need to select to use it!

If stuck, you're always welcome to bring it along to one of our meet-ups.

Good luck,
Martin
