**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Apr 13 02:59:59 2012 Apr 13 03:10:07 prpplague: is the firmware bugs as bad as some of the lists suggests? Apr 13 03:10:44 ds2: yea there have been a bunch of little "bugs" Apr 13 03:12:33 prpplague: but does it do the basic scope functions (by scope I mean analog scope) Apr 13 03:12:39 or is even that buggy? Apr 13 03:12:45 ds2: yea it does the basics Apr 13 03:12:56 ds2: if you just want to do some low speed stuff Apr 13 03:13:11 what are you calling low speed? Apr 13 03:13:29 1KHz? Apr 13 03:13:32 1MHz? Apr 13 03:16:11 it says what speed it goes up to Apr 13 03:16:24 it says what sample rate Apr 13 03:16:25 I've heard that for just a little more you can get a far better o-scope Apr 13 03:16:42 you mean the Rigol stuff? Apr 13 03:16:51 yea Apr 13 03:17:13 it is about 1.7x more but it does get you into a true 100MHz territory Apr 13 03:17:25 and you give up the signal generator and the 2 digital channels Apr 13 03:18:02 a signal generator is cheap Apr 13 03:18:51 it is still 30-40 Apr 13 03:19:20 do you know anyone who might have one you can play with? Apr 13 03:19:37 ds2: 500KHz operations are solid Apr 13 03:19:40 you could also try for an analog o-scope off ebay for around the same price which would get you a ton more speed Apr 13 03:20:06 isaacbw: this is to supplement a 100MHz analog scope Apr 13 03:20:13 oh Apr 13 03:20:15 the analog scope is a suitcase Apr 13 03:20:22 they are super hefty Apr 13 03:20:29 well, then the portability might be nice Apr 13 03:20:44 I've never actually used one, I've just heard people whining about them Apr 13 03:21:27 i did see some firmware complaints Apr 13 03:23:27 for $150 + shipping, it looks temping Apr 13 03:24:41 ds2: get a das_oszi instead, hehe Apr 13 03:24:47 ds2: i need some hacking help Apr 13 03:24:53 das_oszi? Apr 13 03:24:55 got a link? Apr 13 03:25:28 http://elinux.org/Das_Oszi Apr 13 03:27:07 http://www.ebay.com/itm/220906916160?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Apr 13 03:27:33 ds2: even if you aren't going to hack, just doing the firmware upgrade drives it to 200MHz support Apr 13 03:28:52 looking for a nonebay source Apr 13 03:29:10 ds2: they are pretty available Apr 13 03:29:24 under which name? nothing much under protek so far Apr 13 03:30:08 ds2: for the US it is the Hantek Apr 13 03:30:11 ds2: DSO5062 Apr 13 03:30:15 ds2: or DSO5062B Apr 13 03:30:26 http://www.web-tronics.com/dso5062b.html Apr 13 03:31:53 are you saying any of those can do 200MHz? Apr 13 03:32:08 ds2: yea Apr 13 03:32:14 ds2: only difference is the firmware Apr 13 03:32:40 http://www.eevblog.com/forum/general-chat/hantek-tekway-dso-hack-get-200mhz-bw-for-free/msg21170/#msg21170 Apr 13 03:33:05 it looks pretty nice Apr 13 03:33:58 ds2: i have barebox and 3.3 mainline booting on it Apr 13 03:35:41 booting but do you have scope functionality? Apr 13 03:36:16 it does need to be able to do something besides an expensive doorstop :) Apr 13 03:36:31 ds2: booting, only three days of work on it so far, give me time Apr 13 03:36:44 also, do you know if anyone has Linux equivalent of the desktop sw? Apr 13 03:36:59 oh.. okay..thought you got lucky and userland just "worked" Apr 13 03:37:32 ds2: yea the sigrok folks have the protocol mapped out Apr 13 03:37:39 ds2: and there are range of utils and such Apr 13 03:38:42 hmmm Apr 13 03:38:52 sigrok.org Apr 13 03:39:49 that would make it useable as a signal collection platform Apr 13 03:40:13 yea Apr 13 03:41:17 probally will get that then Apr 13 03:42:19 prpplague: what kind of help do you need? Apr 13 03:42:52 ds2: general kernel stuff atm Apr 13 03:43:02 ds2: later we need to hack some fpga driver Apr 13 03:43:04 ah.. stuff I can actually help with :) Apr 13 03:44:05 I wonder how fast can the USB host go Apr 13 03:44:50 slap on one of those $20 USB RF front ends and get real Spec.An functionality Apr 13 05:42:15 just plugged in a 2GB hd, such a satisfying startup sound Apr 13 06:12:14 2gb? where did you find that? Apr 13 06:18:38 i once played diablo-2 on 2gb magnetic HD :) Apr 13 06:44:05 aholler, time to clean out the closet Apr 13 06:45:51 and many drives with exciting death noises Apr 13 06:46:05 <_av500_> and many drives to smash to pieces Apr 13 06:46:13 <_av500_> before throwing them away Apr 13 06:46:32 well, the one that makes the zoop noise can't exactly be zeroized Apr 13 06:46:47 <_av500_> hence the smash to pieces Apr 13 06:46:57 8 drives to smash Apr 13 06:47:14 <_av500_> I usually extract the magnets Apr 13 06:47:25 <_av500_> makes for unremovable fridge magnets :) Apr 13 06:47:37 dangerous to have around when you have a dog that likes to eat random things Apr 13 06:48:05 <_av500_> well, stick them up high onto something magnetic Apr 13 06:48:33 maybe I can use the magnets to zeroize the platters Apr 13 06:49:08 * Russ compares Tc (curie point) to his oven's max temp Apr 13 06:49:13 ever tried to smash a drive into pieces? Apr 13 06:49:35 <_av500_> aholler: well, a hammer to deform the platters is enough Apr 13 06:50:00 it's unbelievable hard to destroy them. Apr 13 06:51:14 hmm, maybe I need to start collecting scrap aluminium and rust Apr 13 06:51:35 <_av500_> isnt that what cars are for? Apr 13 06:52:00 I live in phoenix where cars don't collect rust Apr 13 06:53:10 <_av500_> ah Apr 13 06:53:46 <_av500_> anybody got a spare roboraptor remote? Apr 13 06:53:55 <_av500_> I just got donated one Apr 13 06:59:20 Russ: making thermite? Apr 13 06:59:34 would be a fun way to melt the platters Apr 13 07:34:23 geez, talk about a slow boat Apr 13 07:34:35 Shipped - Delivery Estimate: Monday May 7, 2012 - Wednesday May 23, 2012 Apr 13 07:37:53 you've never seen the delivery a n950 to israel has taken. That rested about 3 month beneath some bureaucrats desk ;) Apr 13 07:38:49 this is just a easycap usb capture dongle Apr 13 07:39:01 easycaps are nice Apr 13 07:40:00 I'm going to be hooking them up to my xM and am37x-evm Apr 13 07:40:55 suppose the shipping policy is listed, 'Continental US Street · Standard · (17 - 28 business days)' Apr 13 07:44:41 Russ: me and brother got one working nicely on beagleboard Apr 13 07:45:41 I'm actually going the opposite way Apr 13 07:45:57 for testing the video output Apr 13 07:46:00 ah right, using them as composite in? Apr 13 07:46:04 yeah that works well as well Apr 13 07:46:16 doesnt work so well for zx spectrum video output though :-( Apr 13 07:46:46 main reason I had easycap was to use beagle video out without having to walk across room to TV Apr 13 07:47:07 I'd think the zx spectrum would be pal Apr 13 07:56:39 its PALish which trips up the decoder chip Apr 13 07:57:06 works fine on btxxx PCI card I have, but easycap goes a bit mental with the timings being off Apr 13 08:39:28 hey guys, I don't know why, but GPIO is not working this morning... Apr 13 08:39:59 I do echo 183 > export, to use the pin 23 Apr 13 08:40:06 and set direction to out Apr 13 08:40:20 my GPIOs work only in the afternoon, it's a union thing... Apr 13 08:40:25 and the value is on 0 but I have 1.8v on this pin Apr 13 08:40:47 lol okay, for this reason. Shit, I have to wait 2 hours... Apr 13 08:40:54 =) Apr 13 08:41:05 yes, have an early lunch Apr 13 08:41:32 ^^ Apr 13 08:41:37 otherwise... Apr 13 08:42:15 any help? Apr 13 08:45:11 no :(? Apr 13 08:45:24 I have no idea what you changed Apr 13 08:46:26 mhh, is my method is good? Apr 13 08:46:58 I mean export, set direction, & set value? Apr 13 08:47:41 I guess so, it worked before, non? Apr 13 08:48:00 maybe it was luck ^^ Apr 13 08:48:02 its open collector with a pullup? Apr 13 08:48:17 I don't know Apr 13 08:48:27 I want to simply blinka Led Apr 13 08:48:48 so i followed tutorials on net Apr 13 08:49:19 but nothing work. But on a google group, I saw someone talking about a problem with the latest kernel builded with angstrom.. Apr 13 08:51:12 Pin 23 of expansion connector is GPIO_130 Apr 13 08:51:28 http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardPinMux Apr 13 08:51:34 noted 183 here Apr 13 08:51:53 old doc? Apr 13 08:52:03 MMC2_CLK/McSPI3_CLK/GPIO_130 Apr 13 08:52:08 according to schematic Apr 13 08:52:16 although Im on laptop so might have misread Apr 13 08:52:21 is it on reference manual? Apr 13 08:52:39 your theory sounds good. Apr 13 08:52:51 oh wait I have wrong pin Apr 13 08:53:01 I zoomed and alignment is a bit better Apr 13 08:53:43 its GPIO_183 Apr 13 08:53:52 but I think by default that is muxed as I2C2 Apr 13 08:53:54 ... Apr 13 08:54:00 ok Apr 13 08:54:11 so I can't use it as I/O pin? Apr 13 08:54:15 so expansion boards work Apr 13 08:54:27 you can change muxing in kernel, not sure if they ever did usespace or not Apr 13 08:54:56 I'm beginning with beagle, not sure that I'm able to do that :) Apr 13 08:55:10 you should be able, somewhere in /sys/debug Apr 13 08:55:19 is tehre a "safe pin" that work every time with gpio config? Apr 13 08:55:55 you can see the muxing in the debugfs Apr 13 08:58:05 I tend to use those MCBSP pins, not sure what they mux to by default though :_D Apr 13 08:58:17 nothing called debug in /sys Apr 13 08:58:31 ok Apr 13 08:58:33 will try Apr 13 08:58:37 mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug Apr 13 08:58:47 ls /sys/kernel/debug Apr 13 08:59:32 ok thanks, good to know Apr 13 09:09:47 which build is the best to develop on beagleboard? Cloud9 or the demo-image? Apr 13 09:11:30 'gpio-183 (sysfs ) out lo ' Apr 13 09:11:41 founded in /sys/kernel/debug/gpio Apr 13 09:18:39 beagleboard or beaglebone? Apr 13 09:18:46 board Apr 13 09:18:54 use what suits you best Apr 13 09:18:58 or build a custom one Apr 13 09:19:07 ok Apr 13 09:19:32 will take the demo Apr 13 09:22:48 * Russ creates an mmc card for his xM, turns to his xM to insert it, then realizes that its probably time to sleep Apr 13 09:22:50 XorA: it seems most people lack the reading stamina to find your kernel workflow docs on the angstrom site :( Apr 13 10:01:23 I've two files when I do a Narcissus build. What is the difference? Apr 13 10:03:42 what are the files? Apr 13 10:03:56 Angstrom-2012.04-narcissus-beagleboard-i686-louisbobv4-nano-image-sdk.tar.gz Apr 13 10:04:05 louisbobv4-nano-image-beagleboard.tar.gz Apr 13 10:04:11 I guess the second is the distrib Apr 13 10:04:14 but the first? Apr 13 10:04:25 its the "SDK" Apr 13 10:04:39 its what you need on the host PC to build stuff for the image Apr 13 10:04:55 so it has all the headers and libs needed Apr 13 10:05:18 but there is also tar tvf $file Apr 13 10:05:45 ok so I don't care of the first for the moment Apr 13 10:05:52 yep Apr 13 10:06:02 if you uncheck the "sdk", you wont even get it Apr 13 10:06:03 it's for developping, and compiling on a pc, right? Apr 13 10:06:07 o Apr 13 10:06:08 yes Apr 13 10:06:08 k Apr 13 10:06:47 ok, so it allows to compile binaries and the program is ready to use on the board Apr 13 10:27:32 It defintely doesn't work. In my kernel/debug/gpio file, I had this line: "gpio-168 (sysfs ) out lo" Apr 13 10:28:02 and I have high level on the pin 24 (1.8V) Apr 13 10:29:34 and it's muxed to gpio? Apr 13 10:34:21 How can I know? Apr 13 10:36:53 ? Apr 13 10:45:26 need help please Apr 13 11:07:55 koen: How to know please? Apr 13 11:14:59 as already said, debugfs, ls /sys/kernel/debug/ Apr 13 12:02:29 hi :) someone have manage the chulk board lcd woth beagleboard xM? Apr 13 12:37:18 root@beagleboard:/sys/kernel/debug# ls asoc clock hid omapdss sched_features usb bdi gpio mmc0 pm_debug tracing vram Apr 13 12:37:39 this is the output of my ls command on kernel/debug folder Apr 13 12:41:23 any idea? Apr 13 12:41:57 WAKE UP! Apr 13 12:44:08 sigh Apr 13 12:44:22 r-pi trolls incomming Apr 13 12:46:48 ? Apr 13 12:47:33 keep them talking until dawn Apr 13 12:47:56 thx Apr 13 12:48:21 irc is trully usefull Apr 13 12:50:21 i met my wife on irc! Apr 13 12:50:29 oO Apr 13 12:50:49 irc = meetic Apr 13 12:50:55 metric? Apr 13 12:51:12 www.meetic.fr/ Apr 13 12:51:18 zombie apocalypse guide does not cover how to deal with hoards of trolls :( Apr 13 12:51:23 * mru uses imperial irc Apr 13 12:51:42 mru, excellent, we need more right thinkers in our camp Apr 13 13:15:02 av500: what triggered the trolls? Apr 13 13:15:09 no idea Apr 13 13:15:12 maybe r-pi ships Apr 13 13:16:02 ah no Apr 13 13:16:10 14:27 < stuk_gen+> is there here somebody have try chalkeboard lcd on beagleboard? Apr 13 13:16:12 14:33 < piless+> stuk_gen: Try #beagle Apr 13 13:16:13 14:33 < stuk_gen+> piless: i just try but in that room all are spleeping Apr 13 13:16:18 zzzz Apr 13 13:17:41 true story Apr 13 13:37:21 av500: its true Apr 13 13:38:04 * XorA is asleep Apr 13 13:38:36 where i can find a documentation of what parameters can i add to uenv.txt files? Apr 13 13:38:56 What you want to do? Apr 13 13:39:37 i try run an lcd on beagleboard xM Apr 13 13:39:50 connected on hdmi port? Apr 13 13:39:58 no lcd port Apr 13 13:40:03 is a chalk board Apr 13 13:40:15 sorry, I mean DVI port Apr 13 13:40:23 no Apr 13 13:40:23 follow "chalk board" documentation Apr 13 13:40:24 lcd Apr 13 13:40:57 av500: yes the 3 rows of documentations that tell to set 1024x600 resolution. Apr 13 13:42:15 i try to use boot.src or uenv.txt but lcd not work correctly maybe i'm wrong parameter but i can't find the documentation of the parameter that i can write on the uenv.txt Apr 13 13:42:24 stuk_gen: did you try google? Apr 13 13:42:26 https://www.google.com/search?q=uenv.txt+lcd+resolution Apr 13 13:42:36 I get a ton of hits.... Apr 13 13:42:52 av500: wow Apr 13 13:42:58 wow? Apr 13 13:43:28 av500: its 2 hours that i try search and try...but whitout solutions Apr 13 13:43:38 I have no omap_mux file in /sys/kernel/debug when it is mounted. What's wrong? Apr 13 13:44:10 louisbob: it turns out that is not turned on in the beagleboard kernel, but is in the beaglebone kernel :( Apr 13 13:44:10 is it possible that the kernel module is not loaded? Apr 13 13:44:29 but iirc they should all be muxed to gpio already Apr 13 13:44:33 and this is not a documentation but a more 'try code and look if run'... i spent much time to try and run...maybe if i study how uenv.txt work i can find solution... Apr 13 13:44:42 I remember playing with the gpios a while ago Apr 13 13:46:38 Yes, it's a plate of noodles. So, the muxing is made by the bootloader then? I have big problems with GPIOs, and I think that the issue is in relationship with muxing. Apr 13 13:48:17 ah right Apr 13 13:48:22 I remember now Apr 13 13:48:23 https://github.com/koenkooi/linux/blob/linux-3.0.25-r118a/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-omap3beagle.c#L979 Apr 13 13:48:29 that's for the trainer Apr 13 13:48:35 not sure what the default mux is Apr 13 13:49:15 I have to compile my distro with this modified? Apr 13 13:49:22 av500: for example i found put in uEnv.txt dvimode="1024x600MR-16@60 omapfb.vram=0:40M,1:24M,2:4M omapfb.vrfb=0 " but i need lcd do i have to try lcdmode="1024 ecc.." ? Apr 13 13:51:00 omap_mux_init_gpio(140, OMAP_PIN_OUTPUT); Apr 13 13:51:01 no Apr 13 13:51:08 dvi and lcd share the same pins Apr 13 13:51:14 its not exactly the most difficult bit of code to change the mux :-D Apr 13 13:51:31 ok Apr 13 13:51:32 XorA: it does not even involve I2C :) Apr 13 13:52:04 just stick that in the board file somewhere Apr 13 13:52:08 XoRa: but it's a C function, so I have to add the header gpio_keys.h to my program? Apr 13 13:52:19 no Apr 13 13:52:20 kernel Apr 13 13:53:27 av500: I mod the kernel, recompile it and put it on the sdcard, right? Or could be done on live on the board? Apr 13 13:54:51 i guess it can be changed with devmem as well :-D Apr 13 13:54:55 but that way is scary Apr 13 13:55:08 hot needle and a steady hand Apr 13 13:55:13 I'm already scared by the "kernel" Apr 13 13:55:18 boo Apr 13 13:55:47 kernel is like a professional dominatrix :-D Apr 13 13:56:06 don't like to stroke an unknown thing =D Apr 13 13:57:08 XorA: so I have to recompile the kernel myself finnaly? Apr 13 14:11:01 av500: dvi and lcd share pins? Apr 13 14:11:16 av500: so i can't use dvi port and lcd at the same time? Apr 13 14:12:00 sure you can Apr 13 14:12:13 just don't expect different output Apr 13 14:12:50 different...not Apr 13 14:13:54 louisbob: within a week you shall be addicted :-D Apr 13 14:15:46 stuk_gen: correct Apr 13 14:15:51 schematics are public Apr 13 14:15:54 no surprise there Apr 13 14:22:46 av500: so or i connect to lcd or connect dvi? Apr 13 14:23:33 av500: its strange i see only more strange row in a lcd ...there is someting wrong Apr 13 14:28:15 lo! Apr 13 14:29:27 ¡hi Apr 13 14:30:15 - mediocre Apr 13 14:35:04 i'm still struggling with loggin on a beagleboard XM with 2.6.32 Apr 13 14:35:41 i use select and open with 0_NONBLOCK, but calls to write some times take 15 secs Apr 13 14:35:56 blame your sd card Apr 13 14:38:21 av500, that could be it... read a bit about them, wouldn't solve it with a faster one, fast means "fat stuff goes fat", right? Apr 13 14:38:51 and looks like write delay go down to 15ms max (instead of 15 SEC) if i will wifi Apr 13 14:38:56 *kill wifi Apr 13 14:39:02 hmm Apr 13 14:39:11 could the wifi driver be stealing the kernel from me? Apr 13 14:39:59 ok i think i have problem with lcd...or the problem is the lcd or the beagleboard. If i connect hdmi-dvi i can correct see on monitor an boot logo and angstrom run. if i use only lcd raw i see only strange row Apr 13 14:40:36 well, either DVI works or LCD Apr 13 14:40:40 but not both at the same time Apr 13 14:41:07 not even if attached displays support same timings? Apr 13 14:41:41 mru: would he complain in that case? Apr 13 14:42:03 you never can tell Apr 13 14:46:39 av500: dvi works, lcd not Apr 13 14:47:03 but i need kernel configuration driver or anyother tools to run the lcd?!? Apr 13 14:47:23 you need the correct timing for that LCD Apr 13 15:02:45 av500: what this mean? Apr 13 15:03:02 av500: i have to set up something? Apr 13 15:03:58 easter monday has me all confused Apr 13 15:04:10 it's friday already, but it feels like a thursday Apr 13 15:05:05 stuk_gen: see chalk-elec instructions Apr 13 15:05:33 av500: its not talk about timing, its only says add an argoment to uEnv.txt Apr 13 15:05:47 yes, and did you try that?

Apr 13 15:21:22 stuk_gen: like i said, it all depends on what is compiled in the kernel, what drivers are setup and what panel information you have Apr 13 15:21:54 prpplague: ok..its a disaster xD thanks Apr 13 15:22:07 stuk_gen: indeed Apr 13 15:22:15 prpplague: ahah, there is a easy UK source of them as well Apr 13 15:22:27 XorA: for the breakout board?
