Title: SPIdev help
Post by: Vinayakj70423 on April 22, 2014, 09:51:27 PM
hi,

I am using the A13-Olinuxino-WIFI board with debian (armel) running from the sd card.
My project requires the use of SPI communication. I have used spi previously on Beagleboneblack, and know how to use the spidev. But the A13 does not show any spi devices in the /dev directory.

Please help.

You have to enable it on linux kernel .config and recompile the linux kernel. After that, you can use it normally.

.config
Device Drivers ---> SPI support ---> <M>User mode SPI device driver support
