The Coral TPU driver has basically been abandoned by Google so if you are running a Linux kernel newer than 6.2 it will not function.

https://github.com/google/gasket-driver is the original driver which was archived on April 18, 2026

You can try the driver https://github.com/feranick/gasket-driver or https://github.com/dude84/gasket-driver-coral or search through the forks of the original gasket-dkms driver https://github.com/google/gasket-driver/forks

So in the future your options are to pin your kernel to 6.2, upgrade your hardware, hope that someone will keep a gasket-dkms fork updated for newer kernel versions, or make your own fork to do so yourself.

Bought mine 3 weeks ago, I haven't had the time to add it to my frigate...

The frigate container comes with the drivers for it. So its probably fine for the time being

Exact same boat as you.. Urgh. Maybe community drivers are possible?

https://github.com/feranick/gasket-driver is the best option for now. But you also need the same gcc version installed as what was used to compile the kernel.
