    hi guys, I've try to connect another Arduino at my UDOO neo. I've try with an original Arduino uno and all work great.
    But if I connect an Clone Arduino with Serial/usb converter Chip CH340 the Arduino IDE not see my Board.
    I've write the command lsusb into the terminal and I have see my board: QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter.
    But the Arduino IDE not see the board.
    Any Solution?
    thank you

    Hi, do you solve your issue? Did you try to install ch340 driver for linux on udoo? I want to do the same thing with a mega2560 based on ch340 usb communication.
    Thank you!

    Seems a known issue, did you try with a standard CP210x Serial to USB converter attached to TX0 RX0?

    Dear @Enrico Cirignaco, please be a little more specific than "I haven't solved the problem", so to help other people help you.

    I found some driver for mac os x, windows and linux 32-64 but they didn't work with arm UDOO Neo's processor.
    So now I can't upload some sketch in any Arduino clone with my UDOO Neo.
    If you have any solution please share it with us.
    thanks Enrico.

    Did you do an
    sudo apt-get update / upgrade ?

    It looks like a general Linux issue so perhaps it is already solved with an Ubuntu update.

    After some googling around it looks like a lot of Linux users have issues with these serial to USB converters. Also raspberry pi users who also use arm processor so it it not very likely that a solution is near. The only simple thing I found was to do "sudo modprobe ch341" but no guarantee that it works.
    The other option is to buy another Uno with a proper USB to serial converter.
