Hi I'm fairly new to embedded linux development and I've been stuck on this 
problem for quite some time so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using a BeagleBoneBlack Wireless with Ubuntu 18.04 and Linux Kernel 
4.14.108-ti-r113.

i need to reconfigure the pins that are not by default gpio. For example 
P8_46 pin which is by default an LCD_Data pin. 

When using the BBB with a debian stretch image I can use those pins as 
gpio. However, when I use my ubuntu distro, those pins will not work as 
gpio. When I try and reconfigure the pins using the config-pin utility I 
get this error:

P8_46 pinmux file not found!
bash: /sys/devices/platform/ocp/ocp*P8_46_pinmux/state: No such file or 
directory
Cannot write pinmux file: /sys/devices/platform/ocp/ocp*P8_46_pinmux/state


I have tried following numerous tutorials online with no luck. I have 
looked into using device tree overlays but I always get stuck because there 
is no slots file in this path:

/sys/devices/platform/bone_capemgr/slots


This slots file doesn't exist and so I can never proceed.

Note: I need to be running the ubuntu distro.

Please help. Thanks!
