Hi, Thank you. That's very disconcerting though. The documentation of the device states that we can use "up to 28 GPIO", implying that all the GPIOs can have their other functions disconnected from it. Would the answer change if I reformulate my question to : is it possible to disconnect the i2c feature from the GPIO pins so I can use those pins for other purposes ? Thank you again !

Hi everyone. I was using TinkerBoard S boards for a project, but now that we can't get those anywhere, I started looking for other solutions. I didn't want to use anything that didn't have an EMMC, so I went the Tinker Edge T route while waiting for the S2 to come out. I can get pretty much everything I need working, but I can't seem to be able to disable the i2c bus at all. I need to disable it to be able to use at least 25 GPIO. I tried the /boot/config.txt route, but not only are i2c busses not listed originally, adding them manually (with intf:i2c2=off) doesn't disable them at all. Moreover, there doesn't seem to be any linux kernel loaded for it. I am using the Tinker Edge T with Mendel Eagle 3.0.7. Any way for me to disable i2c ? Thank you !
