I am also trying a fresh install

I setup my waveshare hat as per [https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2-CH\_CAN\_HAT#Install\_libraries](https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2-CH_CAN_HAT#Install_libraries)

and i followed [Linux version info and install instructions](https://forum.realdash.net/t/linux-version-info-and-install-instructions/1098) for the realdash setup

now i am getting “RNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted” when running. And as per setup i was able to do the ```  
sudo ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 500000 restart-ms 100

```command

```
