I am running bonescript 0.2.5 (the latest) on a Beaglebone Black RevC. Running an up-to-date Debian 7 (7.9??) and kernel as follows:

Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-bone79 #1 SMP Tue Oct 13 20:44:55 UTC 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux

I get the following error when running the code listed here (http://beagleboard.org/support/BoneScript/ServoMotor/):

Unable to unload conflicting slot: Write to CapeMgr slots failed: Error: EEXIST, file already exists

I have determined that the file that "exists" in the error above is:

/sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slots

The code that I have provided a link to is:

var SERVO = 'P9_14';
var duty_min = 0.03;
var position = 0;
var increment = 0.1;

b.pinMode(SERVO, b.OUTPUT);
updateDuty();

function updateDuty() {
    // compute and adjust duty_cycle based on
    // desired position in range 0..1
    var duty_cycle = (position*0.115) + duty_min;
    console.log(duty_cycle);
    b.analogWrite(SERVO, duty_cycle, 60, scheduleNextUpdate);
    console.log("Duty Cycle: " +
        parseFloat(duty_cycle*100).toFixed(1) + " %");
}

function scheduleNextUpdate() {
    // adjust position by increment and
    // reverse if it exceeds range of 0..1
    position = position + increment;
    if(position < 0) {
        position = 0;
        increment = -increment;
    } else if(position > 1) {
        position = 1;
        increment = -increment;
    }

    // call updateDuty after 200ms
    setTimeout(updateDuty, 200);
}

Note, it took a bit of debugging to get the messages above. The actual error I get is:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/bonescript/src/my.js:230
            callback(resp);
            ^
