**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Mar 09 03:00:03 2017 Mar 09 03:39:45 Hey maciejjo! Mar 09 03:40:11 Your blog post is nice. Mar 09 03:40:26 But I got stuck at the rootfs part. Mar 09 03:40:41 "We are all set, so time to fire the build". Mar 09 03:41:22 Do we just need to make -j4 to get an image after make nconfig? Mar 09 03:51:17 Maybe you can add that step there? Mar 09 05:45:24 tokencolour: yes, you are right. I'll correct it, thanks :) Mar 09 06:52:15 maciejjo: I noticed you didn't include an uEnv.txt Mar 09 06:52:44 maciejjo: My boot just defaults to the kernel on eMMC without it. Mar 09 06:52:56 even on pressing S2 and booting Mar 09 06:53:05 How does it work for you? Mar 09 06:54:05 I don't have BBB right now, but for me it scans ext4 partition and looks for dtb and zImage under /boot Mar 09 06:54:35 and loads them from there Mar 09 06:55:00 are you using TI u-boot? Mar 09 06:59:52 No. not TI u-boot Mar 09 07:00:12 used the one documented here https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black Mar 09 07:00:27 so that might be the issue. Mar 09 07:00:57 maciejjo: what do you think? Mar 09 07:01:01 yes, it differs from one to another how they behave on boot Mar 09 07:01:26 hmm...I'll rather try that. Mar 09 07:05:43 this patch 0001-am335x_evm-uEnv.txt-bootz-n-fixes.patch changes boot behavior Mar 09 17:18:12 Quiet today. I assumed it was just my flakey internet! Mar 09 19:25:28 hi Mar 09 19:25:46 i need ideas... I have no clues where to start Mar 09 19:26:39 jarvis_: here it is : elinux.org/BeagleBoard/GSoC/Ideas Mar 09 19:28:17 thanks bro! Mar 09 19:28:52 jic23b: maybe the students are busy doing the right stuff? Mar 09 19:29:02 naaaahhhh... Mar 09 19:33:00 Quite. All out enjoying their youth! Mar 09 19:33:19 i am familiar with coding in raspberry pi using python and c++. I have also worked in a few circuital projects. i am also familiar with machine learning algorithms. so how welll do i fit in the anemometer project? Mar 09 19:36:25 are you under pressure and wanting to hear about it? :D Mar 09 19:36:38 lol Mar 09 19:36:49 i want to know about it as it sounds interesting Mar 09 19:37:06 i havent used beaglebone before Mar 09 19:43:32 feel free to use the reference links and look at the previous year's code Mar 09 19:43:49 the wiki also has stuff in it Mar 09 19:44:05 *the sonics repo Mar 09 19:44:39 no idea about the UnivChile repo, it's pretty much completely undocumented Mar 09 19:45:23 will we be contributing to the existing code this yr or building the anemometer from scratch? Mar 09 19:45:51 last year's code was written for the original design/hardware Mar 09 19:46:06 there should be a branch with prudaq stuff Mar 09 19:47:36 so how would this year be different? Mar 09 19:47:42 a new project would start with analyzing that, either keep/extend it or use it as a model Mar 09 19:48:17 that branch didn't appear until the very end of the project Mar 09 19:48:46 turned out the 1206 eval board was a very annoying dead-end... Mar 09 19:49:20 thanks bro Mar 09 19:51:12 the prudaq is the "right" interface, only question is interfacing the murata sonics or something else Mar 09 19:51:56 the muratas are nice but a little bit different than normal ones Mar 09 19:52:14 *"normal" ping sensors Mar 09 19:53:11 also there's a good theory reference Mar 09 19:55:12 search for "acoustic remote sensing applications" and google books should pop up Mar 09 19:55:47 * nerdboy has a copy to share if someone gets the project... Mar 09 20:14:55 beagleslackbot: where is the spreadsheet from last year with the hardware part numbers? Mar 09 21:16:53 Hello maciejjo: Sorry, had to nip out in the afternoon. Had a class to attend. Mar 09 21:17:46 I was able to boot a kernel I cross compiled following the steps documented in your blog post. Mar 09 21:17:59 A BIG thank you! Mar 09 22:09:15 tokencolour: cool, glad to hear :) Mar 09 23:01:56 m_w: hi sorry for bothering you during your vacation Mar 09 23:02:56 I didn't know that the project doesn't have to be on ideas wall Mar 09 23:11:48 you can add it... projects needs to be useful to the community Mar 09 23:17:41 ds2: did you see my template? Mar 09 23:18:07 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1x_v16SO1Ugrv0432cTJ733nN-CIR7VaZdoBcdjlGFRo/edit?usp=sharing Mar 09 23:18:28 the project seems to be great Mar 09 23:19:24 i'm currently preparing my application Mar 09 23:20:57 I do not want to show it yet because there is still a mix Polish and English Mar 09 23:23:00 I came up with a name for the FPGA cape project, it's "Beagle Wire". Mar 09 23:24:30 I'm looking for a graphic who can design a project logo Mar 09 23:33:10 pmezydlo: hi Mar 09 23:36:10 i really like your project, you should definitely go ahead with it Mar 09 23:36:30 and regarding its logo , i can help Mar 09 23:40:41 uka_in: thanks, are you interested FPGA devices Mar 09 23:40:51 yup Mar 09 23:41:40 i have some experience of logo designing so i can help Mar 09 23:41:49 nope... buried in other stuff Mar 09 23:42:17 pmezydlo: what kind of FPGA? Mar 09 23:45:51 ds2: We will use FPGA device produced by lattice(iCE40) Mar 09 23:46:22 we want to do cape after GSoC Mar 09 23:46:46 pmezydlo: who is 'we'? are you on the student end or mentor end? (sorry, donno who's who yet) Mar 09 23:46:58 i'm student Mar 09 23:48:28 who's the we? Mar 09 23:48:38 m_w and I Mar 09 23:48:46 ah Mar 09 23:49:08 i been tossing around the idea of an expansion board with a few iCE40's and other stuff on it Mar 09 23:49:19 are you making it the same size as the bone? Mar 09 23:50:06 yes it has to be a standard cape Mar 09 23:50:30 ice40, some gpio, leds, sdram Mar 09 23:50:57 'k Mar 09 23:51:05 does the ice40 have a sdram controller? Mar 09 23:52:15 I'm not sure but I think not Mar 09 23:54:24 During GSoC I want to create iCE40 to ARM bridge Mar 09 23:54:37 what exactly is that? Mar 09 23:56:06 I want to enable the exchange of data between the arm and FPGA Mar 09 23:58:33 e.g. encryption algorithm works on fpga and application from userspace sends data for encryption Mar 09 23:59:11 ^^ not the best example Mar 10 00:11:54 ds2: to the bridge, I can use spi or specific interface with a wider data bus(bitbanging on PRU) Mar 10 00:12:25 what do you think, What is better Mar 10 00:38:56 I have to go to sleep now, bye Mar 10 00:41:05 hmmm Mar 10 00:41:09 doh **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Mar 10 03:00:03 2017
