Wiringpi.tcz not working on 9.0.3
« on: September 25, 2017, 06:52:10 AM »
Hi,
I noticed that the version of wiringpi I got off the repository doesn't work with kernel versions greater than 4.8.
I get a
"Unable to determine hardware version. I see: Hardware   : BCM2835 - expecting BCM2708 or BCM2709." error
whenever I start the library.
The latest version of the wiringpi library I downloaded and compiled from source works correctly.
I'm on version 9.0.3 of picore.

Time to refresh the ol' repo? ;)

Cheers
Marco

I created the last one, I already have it packaged.   I thought I submitted this a while ago.   Just resubmitted.

Hi,

Did you guys managed to get it working on rpi zero? I loaded wiringpi package via 'tce-load -wi wiringpi' and it is not recognizing hardware:

> gpio -v
gpio version: 2.32

Unable to determine hardware version. I see: Hardware   : BCM2835
,
 - expecting BCM2708 or BCM2709.

As you can see this is version 2.32. On my another pi (this time it is rpi 3) I installed it via 'apt-get install wiringpi' and I got 2.44 version which works fine.

Thanks for reply
