So, I have all 3 "dual channel" PWMs, and UART4 working in the same file. So like if a pin had the ability to be muxed 5, or 6 different ways. I only left the one I needed, then changed that one to "default" for the pinmux naming. Do also keep in mind I did not get this right the first time, I had to experiment a few times. . . . So you should experiment youself( Theodosis ) to get a better understanding of what's going on. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
