I think it is because we use an upstream kernel which does not name it. I guess this would not be too difficult to get it, but someone need to make the patch and upstream it. > > # gpioinfo pinctrl-bcm2835 > gpiochip0 - 54 lines: > line 0: unnamed unused input active-high > line 1: unnamed unused input active-high > line 2: unnamed unused input active-high > line 3: unnamed unused input active-high > line 4: unnamed unused input active-high ... > line 29: unnamed "led0" output active-high [used] > line 30: unnamed unused output active-high > line 31: unnamed unused output active-high ... > line 47: unnamed unused output active-high ... > > There are references for Raspian, that the 'unnamed' entries should contain > the GPIO names, e.g. at https://www.beyondlogic.org/an-introduction-to- > chardev-gpio-and-libgpiod-on-the-raspberry-pi/ > . > > Also the "led0" and other output-GPIOs do not match in their position. > It seems that there is a mismatch in the device tree and I think the > Tumbleweed kernel uses a generic .dts config file, whereas Raspian uses an > adapted one.

On Tumbleweed 20190308, with my RPi3 B, the following command just works to set GPIO26 to 1 (3V3) : gpioset --mode=wait gpiochip0 26=1 Could you test the '--mode=wait' option, please?
