Hi Thomas!

In order to use libpruio with kernel 4.4 better compile the current source from

https://github.com/DTJF/libpruio

In contrast the old libpruio-0.2 won't support pinmuxing on this kernel. For PWM output you'll have to fix a CLCK problem in the device tree. Then you can run the example examples/qep to check the QEP feature.

In order to get python wrappers you can use the fb-doc package (https://github.com/DTJF/fb-doc) and its plugin https://github.com/DTJF/fb-doc/blob/master/src/bas/plugins/py_ctypes.bas.
