error accessing p8_7 and p8_8 on BBB about adafruit_python_gpio HOT 3 CLOSED

The issue has to do with the fact that GPIO 66 and 67 are used for a green and red led (I think perhaps on a different platform). The underlying c file tries to access a file relating to the brightness of these LED's, which may not exist. I modified the following #defines in event_gpio.h, setting them to 51 and 52 or something that won't be accessed.

#define USR_LED_RED 66
#define USR_LED_GREEN 67

after staring at some documentation for the headers it seems I should probably be using:
P8_07 - will test and close if thats the case.

hiya thank you for the issue. we're going to be deprecating this library in favor of our python3 Blinka library which has support for almost 200 different drivers, and a wide variety of linux computers as well as ft232h

If this issue is still occuring when you use Blinka, please re-open it there!
