Specifically, can it be used to be placed between a keyboard and a computer and pass keystrokes to the computer while also excecuting events when certain keystrokes are pressed? Jun 20 07:09:25 yes Jun 20 07:09:41 the hardware allows this Jun 20 07:09:51 and this requires a USB hub? Jun 20 07:09:54 no Jun 20 07:10:01 you have one host and one device port Jun 20 07:10:08 no hub needed Jun 20 07:10:23 what you need is a HID gadget driver Jun 20 07:10:29 that emulates the keyboard Jun 20 07:10:37 That sounds familliar. Jun 20 07:10:40 https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/usb/gadget_hid.txt Jun 20 07:10:45 and it even exists Jun 20 07:10:50 :) Jun 20 07:10:51 so, you Jun 20 07:10:54 so, you're done Jun 20 07:10:56 next! Jun 20 07:11:21 thanks! one last question: to do this for a mouse and keyboard together, you need a hub on the device port?

Jun 20 08:41:26 i wanna it as fast as possible Jun 20 08:42:42 BeagleCam: i'm afraid you have to ditch angstrom and look to something lightweight like buildroot Jun 20 08:42:58 *blink* Jun 20 08:43:55 don't blink, the angels have the blue box Jun 20 08:43:56 use a ramdisk with just busybox in it instead of a rootfs :) Jun 20 08:44:03 philenotfound: that's nonsense Jun 20 08:44:10 +1 Jun 20 08:44:20 what's ur opinion? Jun 20 08:44:31 * XorA shoots philenotfound for blasphemous references Jun 20 08:44:43 koen: in the windows world, it makes absolutely sense Jun 20 08:45:42 koen: huh? Jun 20 08:46:26 philenotfound: angström is a linux like every other too. if you knwo what you are doing, you can get it fast the same way as buildroot, t3 or what ever else you call "lightweight" Jun 20 08:46:36 what koth said Jun 20 08:47:10 philenotfound: it's just that angström comes with more stuff enabled by default than buildroot, to give you a better user experience Jun 20 08:47:16 anybody tried to startup quickly? Jun 20 08:47:41 BeagleCam: afaik record is <1s into an opengl app Jun 20 08:47:56 u mean i just need to rebuild the kernel with less stuff e.g. drivers? Jun 20 08:48:09 wow Jun 20 08:48:23 BeagleCam: figure out what is using time at startup, it is not only the kernel Jun 20 08:48:32 o Jun 20 08:48:45 KotH: of course, i just found it easier to fatten up a buildroot config than to slim down an angstrom one ;-) Jun 20 08:48:50 know thy system and speed will be given Jun 20 08:48:56 seems lots of work to do Jun 20 08:49:12 getting an understanding of what you are doing is always a lot of work Jun 20 08:49:19 does angström support bootchart ? if so, install it, check the charts Jun 20 08:50:28 doesnt systemd do that anyway? Jun 20 08:50:40 I remember koens "we can boot in 1s" talks Jun 20 08:50:55 dunno, does systemd charting ? Jun 20 08:51:18 tea time!

Jun 20 09:08:56 ogra_: auke's bootchart has been integrated into systemd, yes Jun 20 09:09:19 ah, intresting Jun 20 09:09:50 you can configure it to store one bootchart per boot or overwrite it each time Jun 20 09:10:52 sample: http://dominion.thruhere.net/koen/angstrom/minnow/bootchart-20130508-1105.svg Jun 20 09:10:55 can you auto-tweet it?

I'm not sure what does "next circus" stand for.

Jun 20 10:57:53 KotH, pretty sure they look down on all the potential test subjects Jun 20 10:58:20 "all android application" is pretty broad Jun 20 10:58:33 Rupesh: so no video decoding? Jun 20 10:58:51 av500, there are many android applications that require video decoding hardware... Jun 20 10:59:17 I know that Jun 20 10:59:31 we dont need Jun 20 10:59:37 you dont need what? Jun 20 10:59:49 so you just want to play games? Jun 20 10:59:57 the GPU in the bone is not really fast Jun 20 11:00:26 Rupesh: my advice, get a $50 HDMI Android stick Jun 20 11:00:30 yes game on large projector screen Jun 20 11:00:38 same price Jun 20 11:00:42 android already ported Jun 20 11:00:44 Russ: nope, quite the contrary Jun 20 11:00:44 full HD Jun 20 11:00:51 good GPU Jun 20 11:00:56 Russ: they are glad for anyone who agrees to be tested :) Jun 20 11:01:36 Russ: each and every study is lacking test subjects, hence they try to give you as many incentives as possible to agree to take part in a study Jun 20 11:01:47 I don't mean test subjects themselves, I mean people who aren't in the social sciences, people who don't understand how people and society really work, the "truth" Jun 20 11:01:48 free chocolate? Jun 20 11:01:59 did someone say free chocolate? Jun 20 11:02:12 i have some with me Jun 20 11:02:17 and we should eat it before it melts Jun 20 11:02:19 where do I send my consent form?

Jun 20 11:13:22 av500: and just with a "yes"! Jun 20 11:13:40 they dont make em like they used to Jun 20 11:22:15 Hello. I'm using the BeagleBone_Rev_A6A_Production_11_22_2012 kernel on my bone to do some high-bandwidth USB communications and I've noticed that the kernel has CONFIG_MUSB_PIO_ONLY=y set. Does anyone know why DMA is turned off, and if I patch and compile my own kernel with it turned on, will something bad happen? Jun 20 11:22:52 because it wasnt implemented back then Jun 20 11:23:08 there was some work done on the musb, dunno if dma is working already Jun 20 11:23:30 gwryan, usb dma doesn't work yet Jun 20 11:23:45 well that's a good reason :) Jun 20 11:23:47 there are patches that you can try to apply, but things are never simple with musb Jun 20 11:25:16 is it unworking all the way to the the 3.8 kernel? Jun 20 11:25:18 ...things are never simple in reality Jun 20 11:25:26 reality bites! Jun 20 11:26:18 nope, mranostay bites Jun 20 11:26:38 or wants to be bitten Jun 20 11:26:57 are these the patches I can try? http://elinux.org/MUSB Jun 20 11:32:56 no Jun 20 11:32:59 those are very old Jun 20 11:34:32 hi all Jun 20 11:34:46 how to have the BBB use a wifi usb on boot? Jun 20 11:34:59 plug it in? Jun 20 11:35:00 I see wlan0 as the modules where loaded Jun 20 11:35:39 perhaps you should configure it then Jun 20 11:35:56 I edit the wpa-supplicant yet, using ifup wlan0 doesn't set the essid Jun 20 11:37:15 need I edit the /etc/network/interfaces file? Jun 20 11:37:44 I only added auto wlan0 before: Jun 20 11:37:44 I don't remember exactly how that goes Jun 20 11:37:57 is that angstrom btw? Jun 20 11:38:00 or some other distro Jun 20 11:38:12 anyone have a link to patches for the musb I can try? or is it probably a fool's errand? Jun 20 11:38:23 iface wlan0 inet dhcp \n wireless_mode managed \n wireless_essid any \n wpa-driver wext \n wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf Jun 20 11:38:48 panto: yep , its angstrom Jun 20 11:39:15 gwryan, check out patchwork for linux-omap Jun 20 11:39:32 cityLights, can't remember now Jun 20 11:39:37 check up with koen Jun 20 11:39:46 plus it's lunch time Jun 20 11:39:51 yes, where is koen?

Jun 20 14:36:36 mt9p031 camera Jun 20 14:37:28 I have been trying to modify the exposure value on the beagleboard for several weeks now, and I can't seem to get a build of anstrom that allows me to change the value using Aptina's instructions. Jun 20 14:38:28 ezequielgarcia: I havn't tried it with the BBB yet, but I guess it won't work well there without USB DMA Jun 20 14:39:08 When I finish the readme given by aptina, I gave a build but it's so barebone that I can't communicate with the camera, because the build does not have i2c packages. I've also tried a build by Max Galemin, but it does not have the packages needed to actaully perform the experiments I need. Jun 20 14:39:54 I'm using the beagleboard xm rev 3. Forgot to mention that Jun 20 15:03:48 well, I am about to head home Jun 20 15:03:53 Hi all, I know the BBB has 4 GPIO connectors designated for timers but are these I/O or simply output timers? i.e. can i give the board an input timer? thanks! Jun 20 15:04:02 av500: can you please call koen? Jun 20 15:05:03 will the real koen please stand up Jun 20 15:05:51 I ran opkg install connman-angstrom-settings connman-tools Jun 20 15:06:16 in a desperate attempt to solve this Jun 20 15:06:46 Overlordanny: what is an input timer? Jun 20 15:08:03 like can i give the board a timer? the onboard one is too inaccurate for my purposes Jun 20 15:08:19 what do you mean give the board a timer? Jun 20 15:08:20 a timer input* Jun 20 15:08:33 the timers are available Jun 20 15:08:59 but there's no such capability in the drivers IIRC Jun 20 15:09:04 but are the timer connections simply an output of the ARM 3558x processor? Jun 20 15:09:04 you can connect a clock source Jun 20 15:09:06 you might have to hack around in dm_timer Jun 20 15:09:08 and get interrrupts Jun 20 15:09:11 you can connect a clock source? Jun 20 15:09:14 coooool thanks! Jun 20 15:09:16 yes and no Jun 20 15:09:20 no Jun 20 15:09:22 to a GPIO Jun 20 15:09:26 and get interrupts Jun 20 15:09:27 what do you want to do exactly? Jun 20 15:09:39 time timer timings Jun 20 15:09:46 hmm k. Jun 20 15:09:56 there is no external clock input Jun 20 15:09:58 afaik Jun 20 15:10:15 well I'm using it for data acquisition and I need like 100Khz accuracy Jun 20 15:10:25 but you could use an external clock to measure you internal Jun 20 15:10:25 and correct it Jun 20 15:11:17 ok. internal clock is 32Khz right? but i've heard it's a pretty inaccurate oscillator Jun 20 15:12:03 what are you measuring exactly Jun 20 15:12:16 IIRC timers have that hardware capability Jun 20 15:12:25 whether the drivers expose it that's another matter Jun 20 15:12:35 there is a 24mhz xtal too Jun 20 15:12:40 OMG http://sakuraboard.net/index_en.html Jun 20 15:12:41 NSA secrets Jun 20 15:12:41 airspeed altitude of an unladen swallow Jun 20 15:12:51 maybe eCAP would work best Jun 20 15:12:55 but there's no driver for it Jun 20 15:12:57 Defiant: yes, I have one :) Jun 20 15:13:24 av500: you liked the color? Jun 20 15:13:51 the board is pink, very nice Jun 20 15:15:03 wow, 29 exact steps Jun 20 15:16:43 * Defiant wonders is there is a board av500 doesn't have Jun 20 15:17:14 :) Jun 20 15:17:26 I totally forgot about it Jun 20 15:17:31 signed up at some website Jun 20 15:17:45 dont even remeber when Jun 20 15:18:04 https://www.miniand.com/products/Cubieboard A20 Dev Board Jun 20 15:18:09 I dont have this one Jun 20 15:21:02 I hate the Allwinner numbering..A10 has an A8 Jun 20 15:21:43 yes Jun 20 15:21:47 a31 has 4x A9 Jun 20 15:21:54 a30 has 2x A9 Jun 20 15:22:00 and they have a Pet too. Jun 20 15:22:56 av500, its a good thing I have a Day Job.... Jun 20 15:51:14 How many BeagleBones have shipped to date? Anyone know? Jun 20 15:51:23 ...including the BBB Jun 20 15:52:43 42 Jun 20 15:52:50 Hah Jun 20 15:53:08 I thought koen might know :) Jun 20 15:54:36 Dear koen, by the time you will see this, I will be long away . If you find it in your heart to help a lost soul as me to figure out how to use a USB wifi stick on boot on the BBB Jun 20 15:54:45 please say how. Jun 20 15:54:56 until then , Goodbye. Jun 20 15:55:48 that was beautiful Jun 20 15:56:08 cityLights for the Lit Nobel price Jun 20 15:56:12 that was painful to look at Jun 20 15:56:17 huh - Is there any good reason why /dev/ttyO4 can't be set to 31250 (MIDI baud rate)? Jun 20 15:56:32 can set it to 9600, 115200 ..... no go on 31250 (invalid argument) Jun 20 15:56:34 divisor issues? Jun 20 15:56:46 31250 looks like a weird baudrate Jun 20 15:56:52 yeah, it's MIDI Jun 20 15:57:31 it's an even divisor of round numbers, e.g. 1000000 / 32 = 31250 Jun 20 15:58:01 <_av500_> does linux support random baud rates? Jun 20 15:58:42 well I guess if it doesn't, then I'll be stuck doing some ghetto MSP430 man-in-the-middle or something. Jun 20 15:58:47 <_av500_> no Jun 20 15:58:51 <_av500_> its just SW Jun 20 15:58:57 <_av500_> there is no need for an msp430 Jun 20 15:59:11 hmm, what is the user space interface Jun 20 15:59:31 <_av500_> /dev/hayes Jun 20 15:59:33 I don't know if termios has that rate as Jun 20 15:59:50 ah k, but there might be another syscall way to hit it? Jun 20 16:00:02 <_av500_> or hack the kernel Jun 20 16:00:18 come to think of it I should just look up the playmidi software since I'll need it at some point anyhow. maybe that has the support built in Jun 20 16:00:44 <_av500_> I did that for omap3 in the past to get my 1mbit Jun 20 16:01:01 <_av500_> but recent kernels support baud=1000000 Jun 20 16:01:50 oh, durr, guess this explains something. alsa's used to having kernel-sanctioned MIDI hardware available to do its thing Jun 20 16:02:11 wonder if there exists any OMAP UART-to-MIDI adapter drivers Jun 20 16:02:35 Spirilis, I'm pretty sure the h/w can support that rate Jun 20 16:02:43 yeah I'd be shocked if it couldn't. Jun 20 16:02:44 you have to find out how to set it though Jun 20 16:02:56 termios is a pretty ancient interface Jun 20 16:03:05 ok thanks guys, time to dive deep Jun 20 16:03:35 * mranostay hands Spirilis some scuba gear Jun 20 16:07:31 I guess an extra ghetto way is to write a secondary dto to bang the correct register bits for the UART.... lol Jun 20 16:07:52 * Spirilis might have to pull his pants down halfway before writing that Jun 20 16:15:32 yargh, not as easy as I thought. takes a sequence of bitbangs to get there. Jun 20 16:17:24 too early in the morning for bit-banging Jun 20 16:48:59 How to synchronize two beaglebones? I want to use one redundant beaglebone in my design but both of BBs should be synchronized Jun 20 16:49:18 bb1: what aspect do you want synchronized? Jun 20 16:49:26 clock Jun 20 16:49:38 ntp? Jun 20 16:49:51 the control signals should be exactly at the same time Jun 20 16:49:59 how exact is exact? Jun 20 16:50:14 zero tolerance is an invalid answer. Jun 20 16:50:24 ms accuracy is fine not very exact Jun 20 16:50:35 use ptp Jun 20 16:50:36 check out ntp. Jun 20 16:50:46 if you want better than ntp Jun 20 16:51:04 georgem: never heard of it. quick google gets bogus results. Jun 20 16:51:18 ah, http://www.fsmlabs.com/blog/choosing-between-ptp-and-ntp Jun 20 16:51:38 thanks for the help Jun 20 16:51:48 IEEE 1588 v2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_Time_Protocol Jun 20 16:52:13 good luck getting hardware timestamping to work... although am335x technically does support it Jun 20 16:53:11 ciao Jun 20 16:57:05 meh, finally getting off my butt and building a linux VM for doing source & kernel compiles for the 'black. Jun 20 16:57:42 jkridner|work: random Q if you're listening, ever seen anyone look into using the UARTs for midi work? Jun 20 17:01:53 model name : ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7l) Jun 20 17:01:59 jei.. got them. Jun 20 17:02:55 spirilis, you could use a PRU for midi? Jun 20 17:03:18 vaizki_: just to read/write the interface from linux or from alsa's midi tools, seems excessive to use the PRU for that. Jun 20 17:03:34 especially since the UART should be perfectly capable of doing 31250 8/N/1 Jun 20 17:04:33 well if it is, then what's there to look into? Jun 20 17:05:05 unless you mean hacking the kernel to allow 31250 Jun 20 17:05:05 software side doesn't work. stty doesn't let you set a UART to 31250, and typically midi apps use ALSA's sequencer interface which require a kernel driver that supports talking like a sequencer. Jun 20 17:05:10 yeah Jun 20 17:05:35 did you try the ioctl directly? TIOCCSERIAL Jun 20 17:05:40 seems like it'd be straightforward for a driver using the uart to expose such an interface, just I was curious if anyone's written one yet. Jun 20 17:05:41 TIOCSSERIAL evel Jun 20 17:05:44 EVEN.. dammit Jun 20 17:05:55 I've not. Collecting info now, not doing any coding... Jun 20 17:07:44 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/beagleboard/uV7tIUwzKOk Jun 20 17:07:50 seems like someone was there Jun 20 17:08:22 ah, I see. Jun 20 17:08:24 thanks Jun 20 17:08:46 alas, not going that route, so I am going to have to dive into kernel land and look into writing a seq driver for it. Jun 20 17:09:07 that's the spirit Jun 20 17:17:45 Spirilis: yes, I have seen some folks use the UARTs for MIDI. Jun 20 17:18:38 jkridner|work: ah k, cool. I'm assuming nobody put together an ALSA sequencer driver variant for the omap uart? Jun 20 17:19:04 why would they need to? Jun 20 17:19:34 to use stock seq progs I guess, that use /dev/seq/ et al. Well I dunno, if you're just doing basic stuff you can roll your own entirely and use the /dev/ttyOx... Jun 20 17:22:17 seems that everyone that has done it needed to hack up the device driver anyway. Jun 20 17:22:26 gotcha Jun 20 17:22:36 31250 isn't a baud rate supported by default it seems. Jun 20 17:22:39 ah well, this'll be fun :) Jun 20 17:22:40 yeah Jun 20 17:23:38 koen: hi Jun 20 17:27:43 Spirilis: most people seem to just connect USB MIDI controllers, but that is boring. Jun 20 17:27:54 spirilis, maybe look in TI's arago for serial8250 Jun 20 17:28:17 I still think you should do it with a PRU because that's even less boring than kernel hacking Jun 20 17:28:18 jkridner|work: yep, totally agreed. I have an interface right now, a "bb launchpad cape" and RobG's MIDI boosterpack from 43oh.com so it has the optoisolators et al already rigged together. Jun 20 17:29:44 ultimate goal is to eventually hack together a synthesizer app that uses samples I record from my drumset in the basement and spits it out in response to a midi drumkit (plus fixing a little "glitch" in the drumkit's midi, but that's a separate problem) Jun 20 17:51:16 picking cherries for pie Jun 20 17:51:33 * martinm grumps.... this sin't the google bar... Jun 20 17:54:48 at least you weren't typing anything else.. Jun 20 17:58:06 yes, the llamas and alpacas are safe for now Jun 20 18:05:02 Hi. Is the board revision written somewhere on the board? I have a beagleboard-xm Jun 20 18:07:09 codd7: typically on the Ethernet jack. Jun 20 18:10:39 it says "LINK-PP", "LPJ1026AGNL", and "1229" - they seem to be the model number for the ethernet jack itself? Jun 20 18:11:42 A sticker near the ethernet jack says "00" and another near the reset button says "C2" Jun 20 18:19:43 jkridner|work hmm? Jun 20 18:54:18 hello Jun 20 18:57:35 I design a cape , and I find the location of the connector j1 from the P8 connector millimeter Jun 20 18:58:07 Does someone could tell me? Jun 20 19:05:29 <_av500_> in the gerbers Jun 20 19:05:56 <_av500_> cedric_: or search the channel logs Jun 20 19:06:03 <_av500_> it was asked and answered a few days ago Jun 20 19:06:11 <_av500_> but I forgot Jun 20 19:06:38 _av500_: beer? Jun 20 19:09:15 wmat: maple syrup dude Jun 20 19:09:54 mranostay: yup Jun 20 19:10:29 codd7: C2 then Jun 20 19:12:48 wmat: hmm i should try a maple and crown Jun 20 19:14:50 mranostay: maple and anything Jun 20 19:24:02 wmat: how about Mrs. Buttersworth? Jun 20 19:24:16 that is almost as good as real maple syrup right? :) Jun 20 19:24:45 like Hersey's is almost as good as swiss chocolcate, right KotH? Jun 20 19:29:56 heresy :P Jun 20 19:29:58 _av500_ : with which open gerber and measure? Jun 20 19:35:17 there are DXF files in the ZIPs that you find for the PCB details Jun 20 19:35:23 look inside them Jun 20 19:36:10 mranostay: yes, like dying from lepper and a month long, fully paid holliday on the maledives are the same Jun 20 19:36:29 ok what is lepper? Jun 20 19:36:53 oh leprosy Jun 20 19:37:07 er.. yes.. Jun 20 19:37:10 sorry..

Jun 20 19:37:56 Leprosy is readily treatable with the cheapest antibiotics Jun 20 19:38:15 SpeedEvil: yes, but's a very awfull death... Jun 20 19:38:19 vaizki_: i never drink the stuff Jun 20 19:38:28 straight edge all the way Jun 20 19:38:55 mranostay: and finding my address is an easy exercise for anyone who knows how to use the publicly stored information on the intarwebz Jun 20 19:38:59 ok but I'm off to Midsummer frolicking and yes there will be beer. Jun 20 19:38:59 I beleive my beagleboard has bricked, i have no video no input device is being recognized, any suggestions Jun 20 19:39:30 skipping with beer? Jun 20 19:39:30 bclerc: attach a serial cable and see what it prints Jun 20 19:39:44 ok Jun 20 19:48:18 last day for LinuxCon submissions isn't it? Jun 20 19:53:19 wasnt that end of july?

Jun 20 20:24:25 mranostay: i let panto bite you, i guess he must be starving right now in .gr Jun 20 20:27:09 KotH: still better than a turk :P Jun 20 20:29:19 mranostay: turks dont need to take a bite from lowly, beer feed beings like you. because they are rioting for political reasons, not because they are not getting any money from the EU anymore Jun 20 20:29:59 Stanto: m_billybob seems to like it Jun 20 20:30:38 <_Sy_> Hello all Jun 20 20:30:48 hello one Jun 20 20:31:44 <_Sy_> :) Jun 20 20:31:58 hello off by one Jun 20 20:32:22 KotH: boo hoo Jun 20 20:32:31 <_Sy_> Finally got broadband back.

Jun 20 20:45:53 Nothing but us trolls. Jun 20 20:46:47 Can you explain anything about beagleboard black? Jun 20 20:47:07 Is it a sort of device? Jun 20 20:47:26 that reminds me Jun 20 20:47:45 mranostay: invite me to the troll community already! Jun 20 20:47:58 wmat: are you ready to move under the bridge? Jun 20 20:48:16 droidgeek: Yes, the BBB is an USB Device if you want it to be Jun 20 20:48:18 Actually i was asking for beaglebone.. Jun 20 20:48:19 or, to start living under the bridge, to be more precise Jun 20 20:48:56 kfoltman: of course Jun 20 20:49:07 kfoltman: luckily, i like goat as well Jun 20 20:49:56 What is it used for? Can you elaborate please.. Jun 20 20:50:35 droidgeek: I mainly use it to illuminate the room in brightish blue Jun 20 20:50:54 droidgeek: I use it in my world domination project Jun 20 20:52:00 back Jun 20 20:52:07 Are you talking about SoC project? Jun 20 20:52:32 Defiant is designing his/her own SoC? ambitious goal ;) Jun 20 20:53:06 what? Jun 20 20:53:33 Well - there is someone over on ##electronics doing his own processor design and novel security architecture into a laptop. Jun 20 20:53:40 (Though admittedly into a FPGA Jun 20 20:53:56 which limits the speed to about 200mhz Jun 20 20:54:11 I stay with the Zynq-7000 Jun 20 20:54:15 Defiant: I mean Google Summer of Code..are you a mentor or a student? Jun 20 20:54:16 It's a bit faster than that IIRC Jun 20 20:54:27 SpeedEvil: I only know about the guy who is designing an Ethernet switch (azonenberg) Jun 20 20:54:30 And of course, you can parallelise somewhat Jun 20 20:54:32 droidgeek: aah different SoC..none Jun 20 20:54:38 his other project is a laptop Jun 20 20:54:47 droidgeek: SoC for me is System on Chip Jun 20 20:55:20 isn't it for everyone? Jun 20 20:55:39 * wmat notes scrollback Jun 20 20:55:57 Well, you'd expect that interpretation in a channel that is about a dev board that incorporates a system-on-chip ;) Jun 20 20:55:58 GSoC != SoC Jun 20 20:56:50 Defiant: O that's good. Actually I was looking for some idea for a potential Summer of Code project of mine, the next year..And I was wondering if Beagleboard community could be of any help to me as a mentor.. Jun 20 20:57:37 wmat: That's correct. I got it, lately though..;) Jun 20 20:58:25 no worries Jun 20 20:58:36 I wish they'd do Google Life of Code Jun 20 20:58:49 a summer just seems so short Jun 20 20:59:08 Hey guys, I'm a noob blogger. Would you mind leaving a feedback, on www.androidandroting.blogspot.com ? Jun 20 21:00:20 I'm in the middle of flashing my BBB with Ubuntu… Does anyone know if 2 solid LEDs is indicative of anything? Is there a problem, or should I just wait a while longer until all 4 are lit up? Jun 20 21:00:29 wmat: lol..yeah you're right! And for some it takes half a decade or so for trying and getting into that GSoC..:P Jun 20 21:01:12 droidgeek: you're url 404s Jun 20 21:05:23 wmat: Let my paste it again.. http://androidandrooting.blogspot.in/ Jun 20 21:05:39 has anyone seen dropbear suddenly not accepting new connections Jun 20 21:05:49 no log messages, just silent death? Jun 20 21:09:56 droidgeek: tip - you navigation font is painfully bad Jun 20 21:12:11 I'm trying to run Android on the Black. I was trying to get it to flash onto the eMMC, but when I followed the instructions online, none of the user LEDs were starting up, and Android never booted. How could I get Android to boot on the BeagleBone Black? Jun 20 21:12:39 I was trying from this link: http://icculus.org/~hendersa/android/ Jun 20 21:13:40 wmat: And what about the layout, content? Jun 20 21:14:47 droidgeek: fine Jun 20 21:15:00 droidgeek: where's the beagle connection? Jun 20 21:16:47 wmat: Sorry, I didn't get you? Jun 20 21:17:29 droidgeek: you're soliciting feedback on your blog in an IRC channel dedicated to the beagleboard, so I'm curious where the connection is? Jun 20 21:20:44 I don't know if this is the wrong place for general ARM-questions. I'm mucking about with the BBB and don't see how I can branch to user mode and keep kernel space unreadable from user-mode. If I set the TTB register and set user mode, the branch instruction after that jumps to the user process won't be readable. Sorry again if this is the wrong place :) Jun 20 21:22:03 wmat: Actually I'm a newbie for this community, and was looking for ideas for GSoC on some website, when I came to know about Beagleboard as a mentoring organisation..That blog feedback was an odd move. Jun 20 21:27:29 dk-: I don't have a specific answer for you, but I've found the ARM technical documentation to be pretty thorough and it's freely available. Jun 20 21:35:26 levi: Thanks. I've read a bit in the docs but of course I can't claim to have read it all :) But from what I can see it's mostly how to do each single step (which I get), and not so much on how to put it all together, which I suspect is more of an implementation issue. And so I'm a bit curious on how this is usually implemented. But I'll have a more thorough look in the docs, as I said I've only read fraction of it. Jun 20 21:38:51 dk-: My only other suggestion would be to look for some sample code from a free RTOS or something like that. Jun 20 21:39:27 levi: Okay, thanks for the tip :) Jun 20 21:42:20 Sorry I don't have anything more than meta-advice, but those are the places I'd look. Jun 20 21:48:25 mrpackethead: hey kiwi Jun 20 21:49:08 levi: Information on where to look is the best kind :) Jun 20 22:13:31 Hey guys, I'm a noob blogger. Would you mind leaving a feedback, on www.androidandroting.blogspot.com ? Jun 20 22:15:17 Sorry, that link won't work..This one's fine: www.androidandrooting.blogspot.com Jun 20 22:20:18 <_av500_> and? Jun 20 22:21:19 ... no? Jun 20 22:24:21 How do I change the runlevel to text on the BBB with Ubuntu. I've changed /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf from 2 to 1 but then the board doesn't boot. Jun 20 22:26:36 <_av500_> #ubuntu Jun 20 22:31:38 so if you utter #ubuntu 3 times quickly, does a genie come out? Jun 20 22:32:00 no, a penguin dies Jun 20 22:53:09 Michael Keaton shows up and causes trouble? Jun 20 22:54:08 full moon? Jun 20 23:20:55 lol eklo Jun 20 23:21:16 well more a genuine 'hah' than 'lol' Jun 20 23:43:17 Howdy trolls, hobbits, and jihadists Jun 20 23:44:25 today's special appears to be Hershey lovers Jun 21 00:36:35 Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for me. I updated my beaglebone black rev A5A using demo_beaglebone_BBB-eMMC-flasher-2013.06.06.img, and it successfully flashed the eMMC. however, now it will not mount as an USB drive on windows 7. I am able to ssh to it, and access cloud9. Jun 21 00:47:02 additionally, I can mount /media/BEAGLEBONE (/dev/mmcblk0p1) and the files are there. Jun 21 00:57:10 I apologize, but I must run... Thank you Jun 21 01:34:57 anyone seen Eric? Jun 21 01:46:42 Anyone having any luck with the BBB (Beaglebone black.) Jun 21 01:49:01 keatont: luck with what? Jun 21 01:49:12 the beagle bone black Jun 21 01:49:30 *cough* Jun 21 01:49:37 keatont: what on the beaglebone black? Jun 21 01:49:44 keatont: your question wins the "ambiguous to the extreme" award. Jun 21 01:50:06 Oh come on, I was just trying to get a general idea of what perception is... Jun 21 01:51:03 my perception is that it's a little computer with decent mainline linux support. Jun 21 01:52:03 and pretty rad specs for the price. Jun 21 01:54:03 if by "luck" you mean "scoring with members of the opposite sex", then I have yet to hear the BBB implicated in any such encounters :p Jun 21 01:57:53 yeah, it's not what you'd call promiscuous Jun 21 01:57:56 ^^ agreed. my wife actually hates it when i mention anything related to embedded linux. Jun 21 02:06:02 seriously. what f'n year is it!? Jun 21 02:06:54 wrong windewww Jun 21 02:10:40 Newbie with new BBB. Updated with the latest Angstrom release. Accessed board via browser OK. BBB will not respond to Cloud9 IDE - port 3000. Same results for Window and Linus client, USB or Ethernet I/F. Any thoughts??? Appreciate your help. Jun 21 02:11:41 how about ssh? Jun 21 02:12:21 it's the year of the dog, obviously ;-) Jun 21 02:13:47 I'm sorry - please define ssh // how to restart Jun 21 02:15:13 Hi, I just updated the image on my beagle bone black to the Angstrom June 6th image, it was my understanding that the image had gnome and cloud9 IDE on it. After flashing the eMMC and plugging in my LED3 it boots to the kernel and I cant connect to it via 192.168.7.2 Jun 21 02:16:00 * martinm makes a note to avoid the June 6th Ansgstrom image Jun 21 02:16:43 Is there a later or earlier version prefered? Jun 21 02:18:51 Any input? Jun 21 02:22:19 How can I get a previous version to overwrite the to-be-avoided June 6th release Jun 21 02:23:15 hmmm.... I don't know that the June 6th is bad, but having two independent trouble reports at the same time.... the comment was half tongue in cheek Jun 21 02:23:35 bobvader505 LED3? Jun 21 02:23:45 LCD3 my mistake Jun 21 02:23:48 ah Jun 21 02:24:10 Guest92718: hold the user/boot button and it'll boot from the SD slot instead, so just throw something valid in there Jun 21 02:24:13 the circuitco compatibility site says you have to update to the 6-6 image for it to work Jun 21 02:24:20 which it does now work Jun 21 02:24:26 but it boots into the kernel Jun 21 02:24:49 so LCD is still working? do you get a console on it so you can see what's going on? Jun 21 02:25:04 I get a console Jun 21 02:25:11 but no information Jun 21 02:25:28 it just goes straight to the login screen Jun 21 02:26:08 how about connecting over the real ethernet? it should acquire a local address from DHCP Jun 21 02:26:27 let me try Jun 21 02:27:10 oh, of course - it's for the GUI. guess you could login there and peruse dmesg's output and so forth, but no way to cut and paste it Jun 21 02:27:59 sorry, what? Jun 21 02:29:27 uhm... dmesg? kern.log? this lil' board is more of a developer's toy than a polished product Jun 21 02:29:34 Is the production Angstrom image available somewhere? Jun 21 02:29:48 FWIW, by blackbone seems to have a May 20th kernel build Jun 21 02:30:49 Where is FWIW Jun 21 02:31:00 For what its worth Jun 21 02:31:09 For what it's worth Jun 21 02:32:31 I'm not a Linux Power user. I understand the capabilities, but the advertised use of the 6-6 image is different than what it actually provides. I was just making sure I wasnt missing anything Jun 21 02:32:36 Sorry where does Beaglebone have that image hiding Jun 21 02:33:41 it's what was installed in the on-board flash when I received it a few days ago Jun 21 02:34:25 the kernel is in /boot, or you can run cat not a lot of info there, but it does let us know that koen gets the blame for it :-) Jun 21 02:36:21 I overwrote the memory with the June 6th release - are you saying the original still there? Jun 21 02:36:29 no Jun 21 02:40:28 OK - does BB archive old releases to facilitate rolling back? Jun 21 02:41:03 nope. you could archive the micro SD card you used for each install, I suppose Jun 21 02:41:54 hey, did you guys both say you used the June 6th image, or did I slip from month 6 to day 6 by mistake? Jun 21 02:42:10 ignore me Jun 21 02:42:14 I figured my issue out Jun 21 02:42:26 Yeah - but did not have an earlier version on SD!!! Jun 21 02:42:41 oh, good! want to share? truly unique errors are rare Jun 21 02:42:44 We loaded the June 6th release Jun 21 02:43:13 has them going back to the 5/20 that was shipped on mine http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=Updating_The_Software Jun 21 02:43:14 Actually, just a second. I might have spoke too soon. I am making headway though Jun 21 02:43:35 also, the current release is now 6/20 Jun 21 02:44:18 Great - should have known - I'll check it out Jun 21 02:45:09 do you have a link to the 6/20 release Jun 21 02:45:10 I dont see it Jun 21 02:45:11 actually, you could just save a copy of the image files on your hard drive, no need to tie up the card Jun 21 02:45:19 bottom of that page Jun 21 02:45:26 er. top of the pile Jun 21 02:45:32 5/20 is at the bottom Jun 21 02:46:27 file itself: https://s3.amazonaws.com/angstrom/demo/beaglebone/BBB-eMMC-flasher-2013.06.20.img.xz Jun 21 02:46:39 thank you Jun 21 02:47:34 Thank you - appreciate your interest/help on this one Jun 21 02:48:27 it's all learning, one way or another. hope this helps with your issues - maybe 6/6 really was problematic Jun 21 02:49:41 So this is what i am finding right now. If I leave my SD card in the slot, I boot into the kernel. If I remove the SD card then I don't boot at all. Note: I did flash the image to the eMMC Jun 21 02:50:18 i had to press the reset button Jun 21 02:50:22 that sounds rather as though something's not right with the image in the emmc Jun 21 02:50:33 oh noes, not the reset! Jun 21 02:50:46 it worked somehow Jun 21 02:51:11 I'll report back - where best to post the trouble report? Jun 21 02:51:16 baboo are you talking about my problem, or another one? Jun 21 02:51:26 bobvader505, yours Jun 21 02:51:42 bobvader505: has the board been power cycled - not just reset - since you flashed? the choice the "boot button" makes is only changed at a power cycle Jun 21 02:52:06 ...which is a little strange, but, well, embedded hardware often is strange Jun 21 02:52:09 yes I have power cycled Jun 21 02:53:40 I am going to go ahead and assume that this didnt flash right Jun 21 02:53:53 because without the SD card its like I am dealing with a bricked device Jun 21 02:53:59 the LEDs remain solid Jun 21 02:55:01 oh well. I am going to try the new image in the morning. Thank you martinm and baboo for your help Jun 21 02:55:26 you Jun 21 02:55:30 oops Jun 21 02:55:36 you're welcome Jun 21 02:55:43 lol Jun 21 02:55:51 yeah, see if it looks better tomorrow Jun 21 02:56:41 oh, say, you have seen the warnings about flashing being kinda of iffy on USB-only power? Jun 21 02:56:59 bobvader505, for my trick, i unplugged and replugged before resetting Jun 21 02:57:09 i used usb Jun 21 02:57:48 yeah, it doesn't have to fail, just possible. also depends on how much more than 500mA the port will allow - there's some uncertaintly there Jun 21 02:58:52 Hi I just got my beaglebone black in the mail! I'm excited! Jun 21 02:58:59 I haven't seen that Jun 21 02:59:12 Ill have to wait until tomorrow then because my 5v PS is at work Jun 21 02:59:36 yeah mine isn't showing up as a tty device Jun 21 02:59:56 I plugged it in the USB and I was able to connect to that first web page but im wondering does the default image come with the ability to use a HDMI monitor? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Jun 21 02:59:58 2013
