Pin 16 as stated goes to gpio 17 which is Pin 11 on pi. ---- mn283's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38056 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101269 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
