Hi
I couldn't find any synchronized led triggers in the kernel. The timer trigger was blinking in random when I tried to set our 5 leds. :-)
So i created this led trigger, which can blink with a half and one hz.
Is there any place for something like this upstream? I'm prepared to make changes so it can be configured by the dtb or some other way.
Cheers
