Overview

This How-To is meant to be a starting point for people to learn use GPIOs for IGEP v2 devices as quickly and easily as possible. For this how-to i used Linaro Headless, Ubuntu 10.04 with Linaro Toolchain, IGEP v2 RC5 and GPIO driver wrote by Dave Hylands. There are more ways to use GPIOs in IGEP v2, but this one is simple and reliable.
