Hi
The code that is running is
// open the device memory file
fdDevMem = Syscall.open (BBBDefinitions.DEVMEM_FILE, OpenFlags.
O_RDWR, FilePermissions.DEFFILEMODE);
if (fdDevMem == -1)
{
throw new Exception ("DEVMEM_FILE did not open");
}
and the DEVMEM_FILE is defined as
public const string DEVMEM_FILE = @"/dev/mem";
Does that file exist and do you have permissions to open the DEVMEM file
for RDWR? Most of the memory access routines require running under elevated
permissions such as root. There used to be a File System Version of the PWM
code but it was removed in version 6 and replaced with the memory mapped
version because it was unreliable in various incarnations of Linux.
Cheers
Nic
