3.14 support #63

Closed alexanderhiam closed 9 years ago

alexanderhiam commented 9 years ago

Since the BeagleBone's 3.14 kernel doesn't include capemgr, PyBBIO will need a new method of dynamic pinmuxing. This could be done through the existing cape-universal (https://github.com/cdsteinkuehler/beaglebone-universal-io), which would also require the user to enable overlays for any peripheral subsystems they want to use.

Check the comments on this particular post : https://plus.google.com/+EliasBakken/posts/Uhejy5jLuv4 panto says patches are coming through. Could stick to capemgr

That's 4.0 though. AFAIK BeagleBones will still be shipping with 3.14 for now.

Closing this for now as it looks like the next BeagleBone release will have 4.1 instead of 3.14.
