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.

Glad you found out before the purchase. I made my purchase September 2024 and still rely on it for FrigateNVR.

I'm hoping that somehow a few people will get together to keep it going for a while. I sadly don't understand most of the programming and such.

Do you know whether they plan to introduce a newer TPU instead?

Not that I know of.
