Hello,
I need to use the USB-8452 device under Linux, but I have only found a device driver for Windows. Is there any possibility of using this device on Linux without a Windows VM, or has anyone done this in the past?
Thanks

Hello,
Unfortunately there is no 845x driver for Linux yet.
As you mentioned, one option could be to use a Windows VM to use the 8452 with Windows driver but you will have to configure the VM properly to access your device through the VM and it can be challenging and is not offcialy supported by NI:
