PI FACE cant import module into Python

Former Member
Former Member over 12 years ago

Hello

Can anybody help me get piface module imported into Python.

Having followed the instructions in the element 14 guide.

I have edited raspt-blacklist.conf and added the # infront of the blacklist spi-bcm2708

Install of software seemed to go OK and the piface graphical emulator works fine.

 

The problem is that when we open IDLE3 or IDLE and

 

import piface.pfio

 

we get an error saying ImportError: No module named piface.pfio

 

Can anyone help me?

    Nope - My enthusiasm with raspberry has wained. Partly because of this issue but also due to the fact that I would like to drive a screen but can't, and that when it comes to running python, there are ample tools on Mac/Windows that allow you to both programme and run Python (including a cool Pythonista app for iPAD/iPhone) a lost faster than the Raspberry. Also the final straw is that on a weekly basis my SD card would get corrupted and i'd have to set up from scratch - got board with that…

     

    Other than driving a motor or a few LED's I haven't used it much.
