I tried that ls -la /dev and could not find anything like a GPIO group - my Nanopi M1 does not have a GPIO group and right now the only way I can run the MATRIX programs that come with the NanoPi - is by root- and every recommendation I have ever seen for Node-Red says NOT to run it as root - and Node-Red's EXEC function cannot accesss SUDO which suggests there is no way for Node-Red to access the GPIO on the M1. Ideas anyone?
