Hi list,

I have a net4801 Soekris board. It has 12-pin GPIO interface.

GENERIC kernel doesn't show any /dev/gpio* device. I tried including

device gpio

and I see the module with

# kldstat -v | grep gpio

but still no /dev/gpio* device.

Could anyone point me to the steps to follow in order to enable such
interface? And taking the opportunity for a second shot, any
recommendation for a Perl module to work with?

Thanks in advance

Regards.
