How to Install RPi.GPIO library (or equivalent) onto NEO3 ?

Hi folks,

Board: NEO3 2GB
OS: Ubuntu 18.04 bionic
Kernel: aarch64 Linux 5.4.61
Image: NanoPi NEO3 rk3328-sd-friendlycore-bionic-5.4-arm64-YYYYMMDD.img.zip
(Based on UbuntuCore 18.04 and Linux-5.4.12 Kernel)


I want to use the GPIO but the

Code: Select all

 sudo apt install RPi.GPIO
or the python command

Code: Select all

pip install RPi.GPIO
does not install the appropriate libraries.

I note WiringNp developed for the NEO2 but not yet for NEO3?

I suppose i should try Armbian image ;)

Regards,

Michael.

Hi,

Did you get GPIO working?

I have looked RPIO, WiringNp, but none support the NEO3.

Quite the disappointment to buy a board for GPIO and see there is no support for it

I can't speak for the official distribution, but GPIO works absolutely fine from the mainline.

by main line you mean the command line (shell) and using sys / class / gpio
What do the different gpiochip 0, 32, etc. mean under the gpio directory?
Are there any tutorials or examples of use
thank you

Alternatively you can try User Space IO
