**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Aug 06 02:59:58 2012 Aug 06 05:23:01 anyone know if the digital outputs on the bone are 3.3V or 5V? Aug 06 05:27:08 the gpios are all 3.3 Aug 06 06:20:36 <_av500_> gm Aug 06 06:21:49 gm Aug 06 10:58:20 Hello there! I need the positions of the mounting holes. I searched for 2 hours but various possible sources of those positions (KiCAD files, etc) are corrupted or non functional. Where can I find them? Aug 06 11:08:34 einball: _the_ mounting holes, and you expect us to know what you're referring to? Aug 06 11:14:32 oh crap ... Sorry! I forgot to mention that ;D Aug 06 11:14:46 I have the beagleboard-xM Aug 06 11:15:28 And I need the positions of the four holes to mount extension boards to the beagleboard. Aug 06 11:16:34 I'd expect the SRM to have the information Aug 06 11:18:31 dm8tbr: The board dimensions are mentioned there, but not the mounting holes. Aug 06 11:22:03 "beagle board mounting holes" yields http://elinux.org/File:BeagleBoard.dxf Aug 06 11:23:15 I need the *-xM holes :-) Aug 06 11:26:31 einball: then you clearly didn't read the BBxM SRM Aug 06 11:27:58 dm8tbr: on page 141 is a dimension drawing, but the holes are not mentioned Aug 06 11:28:31 read the text Aug 06 11:29:22 http://www.flickr.com/photos/av500/5125778540/ here's a visual hint: that's BB, bbxm, pb in a stack Aug 06 11:29:51 err crap. scanning throught the manual is certainly not the best method. Thank you for making me feel bad :) Aug 06 11:30:52 (I wouldn't have pointed to the BB dxf, if I wouldn't have read in the xm srm that the holes have the same geometry) Aug 06 11:33:34 That's akward :P Aug 06 11:34:43 Thank you! .. You're in almost every channel, I'm in :D Aug 06 11:35:24 einball: pssst, your'e not supposed to notice us. at least pretend that we're not after you. Aug 06 11:36:20 :-) Aug 06 11:36:32 Okay okay .... I'm sorry Aug 06 11:50:59 koen: in my angstrom console-base-image with systemd, is /etc/init.d/networking supposed to be called on boot? seems to be connmand that sets up networking for me, and she doesn't use /etc/network/interfaces. Aug 06 11:52:18 * tasslehoff found http://www.gigamegablog.com/2012/02/06/beaglebone-linux-101-assigning-a-static-ip-address-with-connman/ Aug 06 12:51:40 I've tried to get SGX driver for am3517 under Debian 6.0. Is it possible to use them with Gnome? SDK provides iwn X server in /usr/local/XSGX Aug 06 12:52:59 this X server will be started via /etc/init.d/rc.pvr Aug 06 12:53:34 Hi guys, is it possible to output the clock of the beaglebone (with clock divider) on one of the pins on the expansion headers? I'm using Ubuntu minimal as operating system, and use C++ as programming language. Aug 06 12:55:46 sh4wn, a clock? there's lots of clocks Aug 06 12:57:44 mdp, ok, so could you tell me how to get a stable 2 MHz clock on one of the pins? Aug 06 13:04:16 sh4wn, use the pwm Aug 06 13:11:35 sh4wm, example I use to clock a 6502 at 1MHz: http://pastebin.com/28dmjJMJ Aug 06 13:12:01 adjust accordingly Aug 06 13:25:32 mdp, thanks, definitely useful Aug 06 13:29:30 sh4wn, np, it's also easy from a kernel driver using pwm.h and appropriate pinmuxing in the board file. Aug 06 14:30:06 my beagle board em rev c. seems tobe hanging after "starting sshd.. ok" anyone have any ideas. i tried googling this, but didn't come up with anything usfull Aug 06 14:33:19 shawn: what OS are you running on it? Aug 06 14:35:37 linux kernel 3.4.6 Aug 06 14:40:39 and your userspace is what? Aug 06 14:43:27 u mean the file system? Aug 06 14:45:46 or the init process? sorry i'm a noob. Aug 06 14:46:24 i used buildroot to put everything together. so busybox Aug 06 14:55:37 shawn: uhm, so you built your own userspace and are surprised that it doesn't give you magically a login prompt? Aug 06 14:55:51 hint: inittab, getty Aug 06 14:56:20 ok Aug 06 15:00:49 dm8tbr: i think i should come up with my own super cool embedded distro. it will be named xunil, and feature the bleeding edge versions of initty and gettab ;) Aug 06 15:07:14 * dm8tbr would call it sunil, just to stay in the detergent-IT cross-over ;) Aug 06 19:07:32 hi folks, i am new here, just wanted to drop a question Aug 06 19:07:52 maybe some of you encountered this issue already Aug 06 19:08:18 i have bitbaked angstrom 3.2.18 virtual/kernel together with a console-image Aug 06 19:08:41 additionally created a ti-dsplink module for DSP programming on the beagle c4 Aug 06 19:09:15 swapped all bootloader/image stuff onto SD, all fine so far Aug 06 19:09:37 the system boots, but here the problem Aug 06 19:10:11 i can log in (root) on a serial/local console for the first time Aug 06 19:11:03 but just cant log in after rebooting Aug 06 19:11:53 facing the "Cannot make/remove an entry for the specified session" Aug 06 19:11:57 message Aug 06 19:12:13 after doing some research, it looks like a PAM issue Aug 06 19:13:01 however, after manipulating /etc/pam.d stuff and adding/removing/editing stuff in /etc/login.defs /etc/pam.d/su, etc. Aug 06 19:13:10 just cant manage to resolve this issue Aug 06 19:15:28 grateful for suggestions of any kind :-) Aug 06 20:30:27 3.2.23-rt37 has been working well for me, thank you guys for the help! my project is open source btw https://github.com/drue/King-James Aug 06 22:41:34 is there a u-boot fork that has dts support for the beaglebone somewhere? Aug 06 22:57:55 Hexxeh: aren't we the dreamer? :) Aug 06 23:19:49 hello, anyone using debian armhf? it seems that the latest kernel won't boot ( it complain about no /init found, but /init is in the initramfs ) Aug 06 23:26:24 hi prpplague Aug 06 23:26:35 greetings Aug 06 23:26:46 prpplague: so do they have bacon flavored rum? Aug 06 23:28:12 probably Aug 06 23:30:36 rule 34 Aug 06 23:30:41 * ccssnet runs Aug 06 23:50:35 heheh, the pandaboard ES has dropped lower in price than the original pandaboard at digikey Aug 06 23:59:12 link or gtfo :) Aug 06 23:59:25 indeed Aug 07 00:00:01 mranostay: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/UEVM4460G-02-01-00/1055-1000-ND/2771679 Aug 07 00:12:06 http://www.digikey.com/scripts/dksearch/dksus.dll?vendor=0&keywords=pandaboard Aug 07 00:48:41 does the beagleboard xm not have nand anymore? Aug 07 00:52:11 most do not Aug 07 00:52:48 there were a very small few of the initial rev that had some, but by and large you are correct Aug 07 00:58:00 that's kind of annoying, are there any reasonably priced sd cards that offer usable performance for os use? Aug 07 01:02:07 sandisk? Aug 07 01:02:53 although reasonable and usable tend to be somewhat contradictory Aug 07 01:03:43 performance being more important Aug 07 01:04:09 i've used sd cards and usb flash for stuff like this before, and it was horrible :) Aug 07 01:04:32 remember that the speed rating on sd cards is for linear access Aug 07 01:04:47 the kind of access patterns typical when running a system off it can be much slower Aug 07 01:05:05 so for your purposes, a class 6 can beat a class 10 Aug 07 01:07:05 indeed, and there's no benchmarks done on them that i've seen recently Aug 07 01:46:47 mru: are you saying marketing lies to us? Aug 07 01:47:15 not at all Aug 07 01:47:26 they're just being selective with their truths Aug 07 01:47:55 with a little practice, you can learn to say pretty much anything you want without ever telling a lie Aug 07 01:48:03 mru: i know :) Aug 07 01:48:16 of course you do Aug 07 02:31:35 i would like to connect a kinect to my beagle bone. can anyone reading this be my mentor? Aug 07 02:33:05 ozzloy sounds like a challenge but also awesome at the same time. Aug 07 02:33:49 yeah,too bad you can't do anything commercial with the kinect without windows Aug 07 02:34:41 thurbad I'm still waiting for someone to reverse engineer the technology. Aug 07 02:35:05 as far as I know there are linux drivers out there Aug 07 02:35:25 you just risk lawsuits from MS if you use them in any product Aug 07 02:38:35 wat Aug 07 02:42:16 so i'm trying to do this for a robot Aug 07 02:43:09 for myself Aug 07 02:43:15 not commercial Aug 07 02:43:46 and there are drivers for the kinect on linux, yes. libfreenect. i used it on my laptop already Aug 07 02:53:39 for personal use they're not gonna go after you Aug 07 02:55:44 thurbad, i wasn't worrie Aug 07 02:55:46 d Aug 07 02:55:58 this keyboard is kinda annoying Aug 07 02:56:43 thurbad, i know they try to make it sound like you're not allowed to use hardware you buy in a way you choose Aug 07 02:56:58 but that's complete bullshit Aug 07 02:57:02 no they dont Aug 07 02:57:15 they encourage using kinect for new things, it even has an SDK Aug 07 02:57:25 for linux? Aug 07 02:57:46 there's no requirement that you use it on windows Aug 07 02:57:50 furan, oh, maybe they've stopped. in the past they've released statements to the effect of "we're working with law enforcement to ensure the kinect is used lawfully" Aug 07 02:58:02 I think that's bs Aug 07 02:58:18 furan, ok, citation needed, i understand Aug 07 02:58:25 they had a eula at one point that required using their software interfaces Aug 07 02:58:34 :D Aug 07 02:58:48 things like that are more for support than anything else Aug 07 02:59:02 furan, i swear though, when the bounty was put out they said that Aug 07 02:59:22 that would be unfortunate **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Aug 07 02:59:58 2012
