BME280 initialization issue #374

jos149 commented 3 years ago

Describe Your Problem:

Hey, short docker question: in oznu/homebridge my i2c communication fails with the bme280. Is it because I defined my PGID and PUID incorrect in my compose file? It is 1000 now.

Response from my terminal: pi@homeserver:~ $ id pi uid=1000(pi) gid=1000(pi) groups=1000(pi),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),27(sudo),29(audio),44(video),46(plugdev),60(games),100(users),105(input),109(netdev),999(spi),998(i2c),997(gpio),995(docker)
