Hi All,

i am currently trying to utilize the GPIO pins on an embedded plattform,
a PicoSYS PC with a Fintek SuperI/O chip and Ubuntu 22.04.4 installed.

For this i want to use libgpiod and gpiod but i am very new to this and
wondering if you could kindly give me some guidance.

I downloaded the tar.gz for version 2.1.1 and extracted into my home
directory, then installed autoconf and invoked the autogen.sh installing
it into a dedicated folder in my home folder. After make and make install it
seemed to install just fine, i could call gpiodetect from terminal but
it gave me an error: "cannot find GPIO chip character device". Do i need
to install it in a seperate directory or am i missing some 
driver/dependency?

Thank you very much in advance and with best regards

Oliver
