Yes I am running:

*Linux beaglebone 4.1.1-bone10 #1 Tue Jul 7 01:15:35 UTC 2015 armv7l
GNU/Linux*

I followed your instructions but still am at a loss.  I was able to update
the device tree compiler and the kernel which is now:

*Linux beaglebone 4.1.13-ti-r33 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 20 11:00:50 UTC 2015
armv7l GNU/Linux*

 Perhaps describing my exact steps might shed some light on my screw up?


*This is the device tree I am testing with:*

I also removed ALL overlays from my system before doing this below.
Here is my output from slots and a python program to get the pins i wrote:

*root ~/bbb_stuff # **slots*




* 0: PF----  -1  1: PF----  -1  2: PF----  -1  3: PF----  -1  9: P-O-L-   0
Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,EBB-GPIO-Example*

*root ~/bbb_stuff # ./getpins *



*==================================================Reading Pinux
Pins==================================================*








*pin 16 (44e10840.0) 00000027 pinctrl-singlepin 18 (44e10848.0) 00000027
pinctrl-singlepin 19 (44e1084c.0) 00000027 pinctrl-singlepin 28
(44e10870.0) 00000017 pinctrl-singlepin 29 (44e10874.0) 00000027
pinctrl-singlepin 30 (44e10878.0) 00000027 pinctrl-singlepin 86
(44e10958.0) 00000027 pinctrl-singlepin 87 (44e1095c.0) 00000027
pinctrl-single*

You can clearly see I have requested them all to be 0x17?

*Here are the alias's I am using:*

*pins='cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/44e10800.pinmux/pins'**slots='cat
/sys/devices/platform/bone_capemgr/slots'*


*This is the command i used to compile the dt.*
*dtc -O dtb -o EBB-GPIO-Example-00A0.dtbo -b 0 -@ EBB-GPIO-Example.dts*

*This is the command I used to install it:*
*echo  EBB-GPIO-Example-00A0 > "/sys/devices/platform/bone_capemgr/slots"*


*This is the dmesg output after installing the overlay:*






*[ 2629.259630] bone_capemgr bone_capemgr: part_number

So any help guys would be really appreciated!  I am thinking that I must be
just doing something wrong.  Perhaps the example device tree I am using is
outdated?  Would someone be willing to share with me a GPIO device tree
that works with kernel 4.1?  Also I have tried the dt builder online:

http://kilobaser.com/blog/2014-07-28-beaglebone-black-devicetreeoverlay-generator#1gpiodto

But this seems to not work also.  Thanks again everyone.
