LED issue on 2big2 with kernel 4.2.5/4.3.3

@Werner

that is the expected behavior, seems the latets settings set in the gui are not applied (issue for Jocko)

Indeed it is not the normal behavior.

But currently I'd rather not to interfere the exchanges with the fan issue.

Just for my understanding, what do you mean by

With the led debugging I used the nano editor to switch the leds.

And do you install this patch viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2314 (if not, maybe it should fix your LED issue)
Note: as written in this topic, you should install it in all case.

No, I didn't, because it is intended for firmware 15.3 and 16.0, and I did a clean install of 16.1.
I tried to install the patch, it failed while unpacking the tar archive.

=> may I help you to identify the correct gpio bit by writing to it?

There is no gpio issue with LED: if you can set brightness or switch on/off from the web-interface that means all is ok on the user side (sys).

You can easily check that with these commands

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/led -w 25  (set a new brightness value)
/usr/bin/led -w off
/usr/bin/led -w on (brightness value should be restored)

(Note: I am pretty sure to known why you don't keep your custom brightness after rebooting)

The issue is not to known what is the current version but what version did you use when you made the first install.
currently with the latest fvdw-sl console version you install version 16.0 and so you need to install this patch.

How did you install the patch and what error code upload patch menu has returned.

Hi Werner,

Thank you for your pm and it confirms my opinion. There is no issue with kernel 4.3.3 and LED commands.

So you must install the patch but it is amazing your first attempt failed. :scratch
