Yes, thanks very much @Aydo and @ibertario - this is a very neat trick…but I can’t get mine to work.
I’ve edited the config.txt file several times now with nano, and I can see the successive changes I’ve made, but after several software- and hardware reboots, I still have the blinking Christmas tree Umbrel with all of the LEDs lit up / flashing strong.
Any ideas why it’s not working? Here is the relevant section of the config.txt file with the new additions:
Perhaps that’s the problem - the LEDs are being powered by the Geekworm auxiliary boards? Apologies - this is my first ever RPi, and I’ve pretty much only ever had it in this enclosure
I recently tried to do this after upgrading to version 1.0.4. However, I get the warning that “File ‘/boot/config.txt’ is unwritable” when I try to edit with nano. What do I need to edit this file so that I can turn off the LEDs?
