There are a lot of people still depending on overlays, maybe that should pose an issue on moving on. It seems to me that it is a simple matter of getting the outdated tutorials on using capemgr and finding out ways to replace its usage. It seems so for the main tutorials providers i have found lately, they all depend on capemgr. I could not find a single source on how to change pinmux without capemgr, i.e., doing so directly on main dts. Could you give me any pointers? I have tried mapping memory directly with mmap, but i couldn't, probably because the kernel is locking the memory for pinmux driver. I have just downgraded so I could get the work done, but, since I will be using the plataform for a while, I most certain need to it the right way. Thanks! Paulo Sherring.
