I'm running my home automation on a Debian Stretch with 4.9.0-6-amd64 on a small mediaPC.
I'm trying to add a bunch of WS2801 to the setup and decided that using a SPI port to run them would be a thing to try. For the physical SPI interface I got me the Adafruit FT232H.
Now while enabling SPI on a raspberry is just a matter of running the raspi-config, I have not found any actual guides for how to do it on a regular PC.
Do I need to compile a new kernel or is it possible to just enable SPI support in the kernel I'm currently using?

Enabling SPI (spidev) on Debian Stretch PC
Re: Enabling SPI (spidev) on Debian Stretch PC
serial's a kernel basic - use some search foo
install inputattach
becasue the hard part is finding terminal acces to the port. Once that is done
the other stuff falls inline.
