Thanks for the reply. So I take it I need to edit the mux.c file in the PCM049(which is the one I use) board directory. I changed the lines as below: {I2C4_SDA, (PTU | IEN | M0)}, /* i2c4_sda */ {MCSPI1_CLK, (M3)}, /* gpio134 */ {MCSPI1_SOMI, (M3)}, /* gpio135 */ {MCSPI1_SIMO, (M3)}, /* gpio136 */ {MCSPI1_CS0, (M3)}, /* gpio137 */ {MCSPI1_CS1, (M3)}, /* gpio138 */ {MCSPI1_CS2, (M3)}, /* gpio139 */ {MCSPI1_CS3, (M3)}, /* gpio140 */ {UART3_CTS_RCTX, (PTU | IEN | M0)}, /* uart3_tx */ This still did not allow me to change pin conditions. So in the board.c file for the PCM049, I also added these lines to force the config of the pins: omap_add_display(&pcm049_fb_data); gpio_direction_output(135, 1); gpio_direction_output(136, 1); gpio_direction_output(137, 1); gpio_direction_output(138, 1); gpio_direction_output(139, 1); gpio_direction_output(140, 1); If I then do the gpiolib command inbarebox, the pins are indicated as gpio as below: gpio 133: false gpio 134: false gpio 135: true gpio gpio 136: true gpio gpio 137: true gpio gpio 138: true gpio gpio 139: true gpio gpio 140: true gpio gpio 141: false gpio 142: false gpio 143: false BUT using the commands: gpio_direction_output 135 0 And gpio_direction_output 135 1 Still does not change the pin condition. Is there something else I still need to do?
