Installing fab modules on Windows with WSL
Greetings, I am trying to get fab modules to work on Ubuntu installed on Windows via WSL. After about a day of tinkering around,this is my progress:
-
Installed fab modules from the repository (very clean instructions on : Fab Modules Wiki )
-
When I tried to run for the first time, I was getting an error. Checked the issues on github and found solution posted here
-
Got fab modules running on 127.0.0.1:12345
Now I am stuck at
From what I can gather from this, is that the roland MX-20 is not being detected at /dev/ttyUSB0.
I tried to check with setserial -g /dev/ttyS[1234] and the output is this.
Is there anyone who got fab modules to run from windows through WSL? I found that Paul Oneil made it to work by making his own toolchain to get WebSerialServer working, but he did not add much documentation on it due to size restrictions.

We have a linux machine at our lab to run our milling with, but I was just looking around if there was a solution to get this working on WSL.
