hi VMat, This is really a piCore issue. It seems like every tce repostitory is different depending on the version of piCore. People usually request, via the tinycore forum, that a tce be added to the repository. If you start adding tce's to piCorePlayer, be aware that you will probably need to increase the size of the second partition. piCorePlayer is made as small as possible, with just enough space in the partition for the standard tce's and an allowance for an insitu upgrade. For basic GPIO options, no extra tce's are required. Just use shell scripts and the userspace (/sys/class/gpio/). Here's an example of controlling a relay to turn the amp off after squeezelite stops playing for a set period. http://www.pinkfishmedia.net/forum/showthread.php?t=165465 If you mention what you are trying to do via GPIO I might be able to point you in the right direction. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
