What version of the e100 image are you using. Can you start by making sure you are using the latest? http://code.ettus.com/redmine/ettus/projects/usrpe1xx/wiki/FAQ#How-do-I-create-re-create-E1xx-SD-Card-Images I think earler images will not have access to gpio0 due to some pinmux stuff in u-boot. I need to double check 170 pinmuxing also. there should be some free gpios in the 20's with the current image. > Another question, what is the difference between gpio0 and gpiochip0 found at > /sys/class/gpio I think the gpiochip entries represent the various banks of gpios.
