Thanks Paul, I'm getting closer, but I'm not quite at the skill level I'd like to be, but I'm learning as fast as I can. I'm following the info in the thread you pointed me to with some variation. Since the Pi in question has no network connection yet, instead of using wget, I extracted the spidev.ko file into a local folder on my debian desktop computer. I made a temp folder alongside the tce folder in the /PCP folder on the sd card and copied the file there. After inserting the sd card back in the pi and booting up, I then moved the file into the correct folder in the /lib structure. Then I used vi to add the line to /opt/.filetool.lst. Backed up (pcp bu) and tested to see if that was enough. lsmod showed no change yet, so issued the commands: sudo depmod -a sudo modprobe spidev.ko now lsmod showed that spidev was loaded, so I needed to get these loaded autmoatically used vi and added the lines to /opt/bootlocal.sh backed up and restarted Good news, spidev shows up in lsmod now. Bad news, still no network connection. I added a dtoverlay line in config.txt for the SPI, dtoverlay=spi-bcm2835 Still no go. I know you don't use SPI on your setup, but I'm hoping you might point out some little step I have missed. I feel like I'm really close...
