**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 09 02:59:58 2014 Mar 09 06:50:13 did a student just volunteered to write a I2C slave driver for the BB? Mar 09 07:05:55 morning Mar 09 07:41:34 s Mar 09 07:46:25 ds2: What further refinement do you suggest to my idea? Mar 09 07:53:27 has anyone worked in shift mode out, for R30 PRU Mar 09 08:06:29 Abhishek_: get a few more mentors excited over it Mar 09 08:07:23 mdp could be one Mar 09 08:09:42 Has Ceriand been online lately? Mar 09 08:26:40 sorry I got disconnected. Which mentors are working on a PRU project? Mar 09 08:26:51 *PRU based project Mar 09 10:49:23 praveendath92: ping Mar 09 10:50:25 leave your questions here, i will be offline for a period and will answer when i am back Mar 09 10:59:25 @vvu, I saw the link you posted. It is a substitute for a physical device right ? (BB in this case ? ) Mar 09 11:01:24 From what I understood, we won't need usblib since Accessory Dev Kit has everything we need (even more i suppose) Mar 09 11:03:41 The bidirectional data part is doable. In fact the example codes have this communication. Mar 09 11:04:59 Can you suggest some tool to get a frame buffer ? I shall work on the data transmission and reception part for now. Mar 09 11:05:39 Feel free to ping me when you get back :) Mar 09 13:08:05 praveendath92_: are you sure you can adapt the code from starware to work on debian or what is the latest OS that is running now on the BBB ? Mar 09 13:08:13 i was suggesting libusb on the BBB side Mar 09 13:08:21 on Android u just use adk nothing more Mar 09 13:09:04 usb code can get really nasty if is not done the right way, i remember my issues with the boot stuff Mar 09 13:09:32 Hello, I installed the tools on my Ubuntu. Mar 09 13:10:26 I will try loading it to BB and see if I get any issues. Mar 09 13:10:45 do some tests and pastebin the results *hope not errors* Mar 09 13:11:09 aslo use latest images for BBB cuz they have good usb as it is stated Mar 09 13:11:13 There is a libusb library for Android too. I was saying that we wont need that Mar 09 13:11:14 did not try though Mar 09 13:11:19 no, that we do not need Mar 09 13:11:30 anyway it should work on all android devices without any kernel/rom tampering Mar 09 13:12:10 Hopefully. BTW the linuxbox you sent... Mar 09 13:12:32 Is it a replacement for initial work ? Mar 09 13:12:40 what initial work ? Mar 09 13:12:58 i was saying it is easier to develop the project on a normal linux box then port all the code for BBB Mar 09 13:14:38 Okiee. Please correct me if I got this wrong, if i want to test the gpios toggling from Android... Mar 09 13:14:53 I can use linuxbox instead of BBB ? Mar 09 13:16:43 you got it a bit wrong, for the remote display i was referring. for gpios it is normal u use the BBB. Mar 09 13:19:06 So, I can establish a 2-way communication between PC (with linux box) and Android device for display testing right ? Mar 09 13:19:19 yep Mar 09 13:19:26 what android device do u have ? Mar 09 13:19:49 i have a Samsung S2 and a Nexus 10 Mar 09 13:20:22 it should work Mar 09 13:20:38 just do some tests and report the results back Mar 09 13:20:49 i think for the moment you have enough resources for it Mar 09 13:21:34 I also borrowed a BBB for a week so, i think I can start with the work.... Mar 09 13:22:16 I'm thinking, i will run the precompiled binaries given on the ADK site Mar 09 13:22:33 as a start point just do a simple echo between userspace application and ADK on the phone Mar 09 13:23:42 Do you have any resources for reference, just in case i run into errors ? Mar 09 13:24:11 Google/hereIRC Mar 09 13:24:51 Okiee. Thanks a lot for helping out. Mar 09 13:25:05 I will get back soon with some progress. Mar 09 18:23:06 ka6sox: ping Mar 09 19:40:43 jkridner: ping Mar 09 20:12:33 Abhishek_: do you have something to say/ask? may I suggest saying/asking rather than pinging? Mar 09 20:13:25 Okay, I just wanted to ask about following up on my idea. Mar 09 20:14:13 what in particular? Mar 09 20:14:22 I mean, what thought have *you* put into it? Mar 09 20:18:33 ds2 suggested contacting other potential mentors and getting them interested. Mar 09 20:20:40 Today afternoon I did send emails to Koen, Russ, Laine and Matt, inviting them to join the discussion, however there hasn't been any reply yet. Mar 09 20:21:41 I spent the weekend trying out the new system image that you had posted about in the GSoC group, and also detaching the system terminal from the Gadget Serial. Mar 09 20:23:09 jkridner: The next target would be to get the BBB to *spoof* the SUMP logic analyser that I had talked about, and try and output some dummy data through Gadget Serial and see if it is received and decoded correctly by the client. Mar 09 20:24:44 jkridner, hey! Is there any order of importance for the project ideas? Mar 09 20:25:08 Would it be okay if I club two ideas together provided I can convince you I could finish it within the period? Mar 09 20:28:32 Abhishek_: good to contact them. best to pique their interest by showing you know what you are doing and making it sound interesting. Mar 09 20:28:56 Abhishek_: creating a gadget serial connection to SUMP sounds like a good idea. Mar 09 20:29:29 wiznerd: combining ideas is fine. trick is to make it clear you know how to execute them and that they are valuable to the community. Mar 09 20:31:44 jkridner, are matt porter and Yau available here on irc? Mar 09 20:32:06 wiznerd: mdp is currently offline Mar 09 20:32:11 I'm interested in the documentation for BeagleBone Black Mar 09 20:32:21 Abhishek_, oh okay Mar 09 20:57:45 G'Night everyone Mar 09 20:57:58 *night Mar 09 22:04:51 mdp: ping, still here ? Mar 09 22:08:49 <_av500_> mdp is on a plane Mar 10 01:47:17 looking forward to having you back soon, mdp. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Mar 10 02:59:58 2014
