Aug 20 09:55:17 <vvu> av500: i think i got making sdcards to work, had time to compile my stuff?
Aug 20 09:56:33 <hatguy> vmayoral: do you have any devices interfaced using the i2c-dev interface?
Aug 20 15:51:46 <hatguy> koen: any ideas why the BBB i2c adapter does not implement the "SMBus Quick Command" functionality?
Aug 20 15:53:33 <tcort> hatguy: do you mean quick writes (writing 0 bytes)?
Aug 20 15:53:57 <hatguy> tcort: yeah
Aug 20 15:54:08 <tcort> it doesn't support quick writes because the am335x's data count register interprets 0 as 65536.
Aug 20 15:56:51 <hatguy> tcort: ahh I see... is there a workaround for this? I mean just to acknowledge the presence of a device from Userspace?
Aug 20 15:57:39 * hatguy sees i2c_smbus_read_byte() as a likely candidate
Aug 20 15:58:19 <tcort> yes, a 1 byte read is a common work around. it's used by i2cdectect from i2ctools.
Aug 20 15:59:11 * hatguy sees some light at the end of the tunnel
Aug 20 15:59:51 <hatguy> tcort: and is there any manual way to do a repeated start from Userspace?
Aug 20 16:02:32 <tcort> I don't know.
Aug 20 16:03:03 <hatguy> ok, no problem... thanks for the help! :)
Aug 21 01:24:08 <bradfa> jkridner, sorry but I won't be able to make it to tomorrow's gsoc meeting as I have solid meetings all day including during the lunch hour
