Hi,
I'm really stuck trying to get my wemos D1 mini to connect to Arduino IDE. I'm running PopOs 22.04. The device shows up when I run lsusb but when I choose the board in the Arduino IDE the port is greyd out and I wont connect which leads me to think that I need a driver?
Would really appreaciate help!

Hello, have you installed the CH340 driver?

maybe it's just a permission problem
