Problems installing USBIPD #826
-
My first question here so Im sorry if I make the question in a wrong format :-) This is not working for me, it is something I maybe doing wrong or dont understand from the instructions in: https://github.com/dorssel/usbipd-win Going in to WSL Trying to install, "Unable to locate package usbipd" but it rejects me and want other install first that the system cannot find. Stucked here, what are the steps I need to do now? My computer: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6300U CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.50 GHz Windows subsystem for Linux and Virtual machine platform is both activated and system rebooted

I pull back my question, found out that usbipd is NOT possible with my x64-computer. Usbipd require x86.

Wrong. x64 is correct.
Your problem is that you try to run
usbipd
in WSL. Instead, you should run it in Windows (e.g., in PowerShell).And the documentation on Microsoft is outdated. A Pull Request to correct it is already pending here: MicrosoftDocs/WSL#1870.
Just follow the instructions on https://github.com/dorssel/usbipd-win/wiki/WSL-support
