Is the problem:

1. Bad board
2. Bad installation (I have a venv python environment)
3. Issue with GPIO and Pi 5 and Inky (I thought that was fixed)

Thanks!

I would guess that’s the case given that the error message is SOC-related. Maybe the underlying library that handles GPIO needs to be updated?
