This is complicated... I'm trying to use a USB OBDII reader to perform a OBDII can dump or use sniffer to "see" the data being used by my car. So I have a Raspberry PI running LINUX and I've loaded can-utils, and can command candump and cansniffer, but these programs require I use the USB device as "can0" or slcan0", but when I type that, all I get is "No such device". Yet looking at USB devices (lsusb), I can see it in the list, but yet not as anything close to "can0". It shows as "Bus 001 Device 006: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology....... Any clue as to how to use this device in a can dump program? The youtube video "can bus sniffing with linux" does not explain enough to figure it out. Thanks!
