LEDs & Thermal Sensors for APU1C support
-
I have an APU1C (not via netgate) and am running pfsense 2.1.3 (full install), and I do not have a /dev/gpioapu. What are my options for LEDing?
-
We'll be releasing a Platform Specific Release for the APU, though not for "full install".

Thanks Gonzopancho!!
I've found another implementation for FreeBSD that uses /dev/led. This implementation for APU/Pfsense have some limitations comparing with "/dev/led" one.
Did you know if is possible to use Larry's implementation in PfSense?

Anybody have any luck getting blinkled to work on a non-Netgate APU? I have an APU1D running 2.1.5 and have no /dev/led* or /dev/gpioapu. Am I correct in assuming that a proprietary Netgate-specific distribution of pfSense must be used to achieve this functionality?
Thanks.

Did you try using Larry Baird's driver linked to above? I just downloaded it and it builds into a loadable kernel module OK. I don't have an APU to test it with though.

Larry's driver is ours. He seems to have decided to remove Ermal's name.
Fun times

Ouch. :-\

Forgive me for going slightly off topic, but I can't seem to find an image for FREEBSD-8.3 anywhere, has it been EOL'd? What is the best way to get a VM going to build stuff like this for pfSense 2.1.x? Thanks!

Thanks very much for all your help.
