RS485 not working

[wasn-eu]

Hi

first thank you for your great work.
But i have a problem that i could not use the rs485 because of a gpio conflict:
`root@raspberrypi4:~# dmesg | grep -i '(can|spi)

[ 4.428624] pinctrl-bcm2835 fe200000.gpio: pin gpio19 already requested by fe200000.gpio; cannot claim for fe215080.spi

`

I have the latest stable venus os large installation on a raspberry pi 4.

as i can see the changes for digital input 4 are acitve:

digital_input_4 -> /sys/class/gpio/gpio22

but what else is now using gpio19?

i had to comment this line out in the file /u-boot/config.txt
dtoverlay=VenusGpioOverlay

than the /dev/ttySC0 and ttySC1 devices are created.
but i get these errors:

`root@raspberrypi4:~# dmesg | grep spi

Hi @wasn-eu ,

sorry for the long delay but I realized right now that there is an open issue. Did you find out where the problem results from (what overlay uses GPIO19)? I have no idea - my rpi 3 works without any problems.

Ah,

right now I saw the possible reason: Did you install https://github.com/kwindrem/RpiGpioSetup? This uses different GPIO pins (5 6 13 16 19 26) and MUST NOT be installed together with my addon!

@wasn-eu Is your problem solved so I might close this issue?
