I’m am using a Variscite DART-MX8M Mini version 2.0 with BalenaOS and some of the pins are unusable. Will there be an update for the MX8M version 2.0 with the updated DTB?

Hello @e-soubliere thank you for your message and apologizes for the long delay on the answer. We have pinged the devices team at balena and we will update you.

BTW did your situation improved during the last 2 weeks?

Hi, we have created an issue to track this support at [Update support for the revision 2.0 of the Variscite MX8M development kit · Issue #84 · balena-os/balena-variscite-mx8 · GitHub](https://github.com/balena-os/balena-variscite-mx8/issues/84) which I have linked to this ticket so we can update you here when there is progress.  
As a reminder, you can also build the source, modify it to work with the new 2.0 hardware (this will likely require some detection of the version at boot so that it can use the correct device tree), and PR your changes to the project.

Hi @e-soubliere , you can check if the v2.80.5+rev2 image from the dashboard works with the new board revision 2.0, as it has the new 5.4.85 kernel and updated dtbs.
