Hi folks!
For some reasons (mainly the kernel support for IEEE 802.11s) I need to use Debian (kernel 3.13 or higher; I’m currently running 3.16.1-bone4) on my BBB. For my project, I will also use the CAN interface of the BBB and some IO pins (mainly for LEDs and switches...). This is my first BBB project so I searched the web for the easiest / best solution for using the GPIO pins of my BBBs. In many tutorials about BBB GPIO and can-bus the use of the capemgr is suggested. But as you all know there is no capemgr in 3.16. Now I would really need your help to find the best way to enable the can-bus (dcan_1) and also control some other GPIO pins. Can I do this from userspace some how? Or do I have to reconfigure and rebuild the kernel? @GPIO pins: I think the easiest solution is to use "echo [GPIO No.] > /sys/class/gpio/export" and then set the value & direction etc. using echo. Am I right here? Thanks a lot for your help and hints, Marco -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
