edgetpu: apex_0 driver not loaded
Description
I have just installed a fresh ubuntu server 21.10 and installed the latest 5.16 kernel. I am able to detect the coral with
user@server:~$ lspci -nn | grep 089a
02:00.0 System peripheral [0880]: Global Unichip Corp. Coral Edge TPU [1ac1:089a].
However, running
user@server:~$ ls /dev/apex_0
ls: cannot access '/dev/apex_0': No such file or directory
I have tried doing the install with the workaround even though no apex driver was preinstalled and that didn’t work either. Any help is greatly appreciated.

OMG you just saved me! Secure Boot was enabled on my Proxmox VM and I was pulling my hair out wondering why the apex drivers would not load. Disabled secure boot on the VM, and instantly the apex device appeared.
It seems kernel headers are missing. Can you try to install the modules after installing kernel headers: https://www.tecmint.com/install-kernel-headers-in-ubuntu-and-debian/
