Raspberry Pi - GPIO Access...

Hi All,

Can anybody provide information, or point me in the right direction, to start to work with the GPIO pins on a Raspberry Pi, specifically the I2C and SPI buses?

Am keen to use FreeBSD as a GUI to a number of hardware components...

James.
 
FreeBSD doesn't have I2C, SPI or GPIO driver at this time.. You are unable to communicate with those low peripherals that Raspberry Pi has.

I recommend you to try Linux (Raspbian, Arch etc) to work with Raspberry Pi GPIO

And I will let several links that talk about I2C and GPIO from RasPI:
