Hello everyone.

Tried to use GPIO. Installed the necessary C library.

As you can see, there are some weird numbers. The only one pin I could find was gpiochip1184. It was pin 184. Others not even match a pattern of last 3 numbers.

Maybe you could help me, what is wrong there?

 

Model: Asus Tinker Board S.

 

Thank you.

Please provide the output of armbianmonitor -u

 

I had the gpio returned to base 0 (Rockchip decided it should be base 1000 at some point for unclear reasons involving Android if I remember correctly.)

 

If that is not still the case, it could be due to the recent issue with kernels resulting in us reverting to an older kernel source.  Some of the the patches that were no longer needed may again need added.  

@TonyMac32

Here are the results of the command: http://ix.io/1h0m

Yes, that one is still counting from 1000. Do you need multimedia or touch screen/camera? If not I recommend a mainline kernel, the legacy kernel has sadly taken a turn for the worse recently and needs some work.

Thank you! Currently, I don't need any cameras or screens at all. How do I forcefully update a kernel? To install the specific version manually?

armbian-config -> system -> alternative kernels -> next

@Igor Thank you very much. It was quite easy

Now GPIO looks a bit different. But I still don't see most of the numbers in GPIO table

$ ls /sys/class/gpio/
export  gpiochip0  gpiochip120  gpiochip152  gpiochip184  gpiochip216  gpiochip24  gpiochip248  gpiochip56  gpiochip88  unexport

This is a table:
 

$ sudo gpio readall
