Raspberry Pi 5 GPIO Pins problem

Configuration
1

Hi,
after lots of trouble i was able to make Home assistant Core work on my Raspberry Pi 5 in a Docker Container.
Everything works fine.
The only thing is that i have problems using the GPIO pins.
the Docker COntainer is --privileged so it should be able to access the GPIO Pins.

I Installed Hacs and the Raspberry Pi GPIO Repository. THis worked great on my Raspberry Pi 3B.
Now i am only getting this error in the logs on startup of the container:

Logger: homeassistant.components.switch
Source: helpers/entity_platform.py:360
Integration: Schalter (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 14:31:32 (1 occurrences)

Error while setting up rpi_gpio platform for switch

    GPIO.setup(port, GPIO.OUT)

Is someone able to help me?

I’d like to know this too, did you ever get it to work?

No but i found the source of our problem.
The rpi5 is using the gpio pins in a different way as rpis before him.
I use a rpi zero to control things over gpio wich tells the main rpi5 over mqtt their state

Any update? I have the same problem and its not related to docker but to the way RPI5 kernel controlling GPIOs

I’m also keeping my fingers crossed that GPIO access comes back for Pi 5 :slight_smile:
