Problem running RPIO on Raspberry Pi 4

[Tim8Trudeau]

I am seeing a "SystemError: This module can only be run on a Raspberry Pi!" I am running RPIO on a Raspberry Pi 4 under Python 3.7.3.
Logged into the Pi via SSH from a windows 10 machine.

Here is the traceback from import RPIO.

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo rpio --version
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/rpio", line 345, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/local/bin/rpio", line 147, in main
    import RPIO
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/RPIO/__init__.py", line 115, in <module>
    import RPIO._GPIO as _GPIO
SystemError: This module can only be run on a Raspberry Pi!

The OS is buster

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="10"
VERSION="10 (buster)"

Hi @Tim8Trudeau,

Were you able to find a work around?
I am having the same issue.

The author @metachris of this library doesn't seem to be very responsive

I dropped RPIO in favor of RPi.GPIO.
