SPIDEV0 and I2C issues on BBB in Python

what does your “dmesg | grep spi” output

i get
pinctrl-single 44e10800.pinmux: pin PIN84 already requested by ocp:P9_22_pinmu
x; cannot claim for 48030000.spi
[ 9.559314] pinctrl-single 44e10800.pinmux: pin-84 (48030000.spi) status -22
[ 9.566450] pinctrl-single 44e10800.pinmux: could not request pin 84 (PIN84) from group sp
i0_pins_s0 on device pinctrl-single
[ 9.577914] omap2_mcspi 48030000.spi: Error applying setting, reverse things back
[ 9.585511] omap2_mcspi: probe of 48030000.spi failed with error -22

one other thing that i’m seeing
No such file or directory: ‘/sys/devices/platform/bone_capemgr/slots’

don’t know much about Adafruit_BBIO.SPI, but it appears to be for older images

also, there’s
/opt/source/spidev-test
just compile it with gcc

a quick search, apparently Adafruit stuff is no longer supported
