Connecting VESC to XAVIER

Has someone managed to connect the VESC to a Jetson Xavier?

I was following this tutorial (https://www.jetsonhacks.com/2017/06/01/get-your-motor-running-vesc-jetso...) which is actually for the TX1/TX2. NVIDIA mentioned that CDC-ACM should work on the Xavier without installing this. However, when starting the BLDC tool I am not able to connect to the VESC. It's not even listed.

Connection works fine on my other Ubuntu Machine and in Windows. I have no clue whats wrong. 

BTW:  The VESC tool won't even start on the Xavier. Guess it's not build for it.

The solution is not to install the driver from the link I have attached. Xavier works perfectly fine with it's default cdc-acm.ko driver file.
