I think its because of this, the Adafruit Python GPIO library broke. Is there anyway to fix this? I fixed the I2C probably by changing the python file, but unsure how for the SPI. On Friday, March 21, 2014 11:41:06 AM UTC-5, David wrote: Robert, It appears that the GPIO label

Robert, It appears that the GPIO label numbering scheme has been changed from the device tree overlay's 1 to n+1, to the more con-formant 0 to n; I fell into this trap :-[ . I will send you my consolidated patch directly, once I had time to check it out further. Sorry for the

Robert, It looks like I spoke too soon. Although my device tree appears to get loaded and my driver entry point is called with correct parameters, the pinmux does not appear to get set up correctly. Where do I look in 3.13 kernel based systems to debug the pinmux settings? Best regards,

Hey guys, I am trying to decide whether to stay on the 3.8 kernel or move to 3.13 myself... The reason is that my usb wifi dongle does not work in 3.8 but it does in 3.12+. I am fairly new and just became familiar with getting things to work using the device tree overlays and the cape

Just a suggestion. If the dtb for the cape does not exist or is corrupted, could the device tree default to the base, for example am335x-boneblack.dtb? Dave. On 03/05/2014 08:07 PM, Robert Nelson wrote: On Wed, Mar 5, 2014 at 7:01 PM, David Lambert d...@lambsys.com wrote: On 03/05/2014

I am contemplating moving from 3.8.x to 3.13.x kernels due to the apparent improvement in USB support. I am confused, however, as to the state of device trees/overlays and their relationship with capes. It appears to me that 3.8.x kernels use device tree overlays managed by an internal kernel
