2 years ago you could probably follow our guides to add support - since it looks like I2C and SPI is already enabled https://learn.adafruit.com/adding-a-single-board-computer-to-platformdetect-for-blinka https://learn.adafruit.com/adding-a-single-board-computer-to-blinka
Hi All,
I need to update a project I created a few years ago for a data acquisition project for work. The whole project needs to be refreshed and I need to build 5 of these right away. Probably many more. I cannot find RPis anywhere these days unless I'm willing to pay lots of $$. I have a couple of NanoPi M1 Plus boards I ordered a couple of years ago to evaluate and more stock is available. They are GPIO compatible with RPi's. I have everything set up and updated and the last step is to attach an I2C SSD1306 128x64 OLED display. Whoops! I updated all my Python libraries to support Blinka but it looks like my board is not supported. I like these boards and would like to use them, but I have to have the SSD1306 working.
Thanks, any help would very much appreciated. Details are shown below:
