Hi!
I am having same problem as seen in many other topics around, but none of their solutions helped me yet.
I use RAK5146 on RAK7391.
Both through docker or directly instally rak_common_for_gateway, I keep getting:
Sep 13 08:04:51 rak-gateway ttn-gateway[1558]: Opening SPI communication interface

I changed GPIO17 for 529 following this mapping:

But even if in 529 it does not complain [before it said the resource did not exist], It does not seem to be reseting the module:
Sep 13 08:04:48 rak-gateway ttn-gateway[1550]: /opt/ttn-gateway/packet_forwarder/lora_pkt_fwd/start.sh: line 6: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
I do not know if there may be someone else blocking those pins.
I tried also adding:
dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=host
to /boot/config.txt file as suggested in https://forum.rakwireless.com/t/spi-interface-not-working-with-rakpios-in-rak7391/9183/7
And everything I found here, I also moved it to the 2nd PCI slot, with no success. I am really lost now…
Any Ideas about what to try next?
