**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Aug 19 02:59:59 2013 Aug 19 03:05:45 trlls Aug 19 03:13:13 jkridner: if you keep that "bit", and save another 7 you'll have a byte Aug 19 03:13:14 distracted.... back now Aug 19 03:13:32 mrpackethead: oh? Aug 19 03:13:49 yes, lets start a bit market Aug 19 03:13:53 were we could trade bits Aug 19 03:15:31 Lee201: do you have a full log? Aug 19 03:15:52 I haven't seen that issue with oebb.sh in specific, no. Aug 19 03:16:28 your file system good? Aug 19 03:17:18 mru: note to self - pumpkin ale and burritos don't go well together.... Aug 19 03:17:32 prpplague: :-) Aug 19 03:17:40 scotch ale and IRC go together nicely. Aug 19 03:17:44 jkridner: generating one now... Aug 19 03:20:40 jkridner: getting prepared for a fun week? Aug 19 03:20:54 every week is a fun week. :-) Aug 19 03:23:12 weekends are funny Aug 19 03:23:16 dont cha know Aug 19 03:24:12 jkridner: http://pastebin.com/y8eQdyjE Aug 19 03:25:48 s effing glad i dont touch angstrom anymore Aug 19 03:26:52 m_billybob: what do you use? i'm pretty new to beagleboards, so any insight to better solutions would be helpful Aug 19 03:27:31 Well, use what you like to use, but i am just saying i hated screwing aroudn with the "sngstrom build process" Aug 19 03:27:42 ah Aug 19 03:27:43 I use debia nwheezt though Aug 19 03:27:51 debian wheezy* Aug 19 03:28:32 I spent a week trying ot build angstrom from source, and the lack of up to date instructions drive me buts Aug 19 03:28:43 err drove me nuts Aug 19 03:28:48 prpplague: ew Aug 19 03:29:03 hey there fancy beer troll guy Aug 19 03:29:13 * m_billybob waves at mranostay Aug 19 03:29:52 mranostay we're slumming big time tonight. milwaukee's best light :P Aug 19 03:30:45 oh christ Aug 19 03:30:57 damn hipsters Aug 19 03:31:10 Lee201, anyhow you can pretty much use whatever you like, so if you have a favorite distro, you can more than likely put that on the BBB Aug 19 03:32:37 Debian fedora ubuntu ARCH gentoo and i think slackware too not to mention the "non linuxes" that run on it as we'' Aug 19 03:32:52 wow, that's good to know Aug 19 03:33:10 err run on it as well Aug 19 03:33:36 Lee201: did you try to run any builds? Aug 19 03:34:38 m_billybob: the beast is to beer that nodejs is to programming :P Aug 19 03:35:14 mranostay webUI abstraction, tell me how you do that well ever ? Aug 19 03:35:28 i don't want too Aug 19 03:35:34 Lee201: looks like the tag from meta-xilinx isn't valid anymore... but, you probably don't use that layer. Aug 19 03:35:35 you have perl, dotn even get me started on perl, you have php . . . Aug 19 03:35:49 the whole field is litered with garbage Aug 19 03:36:09 m_billybob: php isn't bad it is just the noobs that write it Aug 19 03:36:25 php as a l;anguage is no better than javascript Aug 19 03:36:31 Lee201: looks like the Danny branch isn't there either. Aug 19 03:36:35 on meta-linaro. Aug 19 03:36:58 jkridner: danny i harely knew ye? Aug 19 03:38:13 mranostay, anyhow i learned a long time ago, that yeah i am a code snob too, but sometimes somethign that are what we might consider garbage, are best used to *some* things Aug 19 03:38:50 best used to do some thigns. i dont exactly like writting web app stuff, but my project requires it Aug 19 03:39:24 jkridner: after the config, i run an update, which also gets errors (log: http://pastebin.com/6mqMkrSS) followed by the bitbake command, which aborts with fatal errors (log: http://pastebin.com/L8nhfcw8) Aug 19 03:39:50 i don't think i have a proper source tree to do a build yet Aug 19 03:41:02 Lee201: looking at layers.txt, there is reference to the 'danny' branch. Aug 19 03:41:14 looking at https://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/meta-linaro, there is no 'danny' branch. Aug 19 03:41:23 :/ Aug 19 03:41:28 yes, they're definitely in the layers.txt file. i've tried modifying those to read "master" instead, Aug 19 03:42:21 i got errors when doing that as well Aug 19 03:42:23 https://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=openembedded/meta-linaro.git has one.... not sure why koen didn't clone it in his new clone. Aug 19 03:50:26 should i replace my meta-linaro entry with that link in my layers.txt? Aug 19 03:58:05 probably, to get moving. Aug 19 03:58:29 deserves a google to see if koen explained his patch to move to a fork of meta-linaro Aug 19 03:59:11 i've definitely been googling most of the messages i'm getting, but i haven't found much. Aug 19 04:00:30 but i'm new to much of this, so i may not have searched for the right stuff in addition to my precise error messages Aug 19 04:01:03 i saw some queries about this patch ... https://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/setup-scripts/commit/66e40ddfe62f9f67263aaf82014e12b682351182 Aug 19 04:04:22 * jkridner looks at http://logs.nslu2-linux.org/livelogs/beagle/beagle.20130525.txt Aug 19 04:05:23 ooh, this appears relevant Aug 19 04:07:17 up to date "instructions" not necessarily exact steps would come in real handy me thinks Aug 19 04:08:39 problem i found was that some stuff was out of date, and tons of information all over the place did not work, or match from one set of instructions to the next . . . made me personally very frustrated Aug 19 04:11:27 Lee201: ah... Aug 19 04:11:33 looks like the branch you are on is old... Aug 19 04:11:47 seems the old branch got broken. :-( Aug 19 04:11:50 oh? Aug 19 04:12:11 Lee201: yeah... look at the angstrom-v2013.06-yocto1.4 branch of setup-scripts.... Aug 19 04:12:20 if you use that one, I think the layers.txt should be valid. Aug 19 04:12:28 sucks that the old one is broken. Aug 19 04:43:20 this branch definitely seems better, although i'm getting an error during the update step: Aug 19 04:43:28 "WARNING: meta-ti is using a different branch 'master' than configured in layers.txt 'angstrom-staging-yocto1.4'" Aug 19 04:48:02 just hand-modifying layers.txt to "master" seems to have solved that though Aug 19 04:49:34 building! thanks jkridner for your help :) Aug 19 04:50:06 glad it helped Aug 19 05:05:03 * mranostay is back Aug 19 05:17:06 heh...all this Angstrom building has run me out of disk space. off to resize some partitions :P Aug 19 05:24:50 buy a hard drive Aug 19 06:19:46 trolls Aug 19 06:19:50 trolls Aug 19 06:21:19 Brup Aug 19 06:41:00 Hi all! How I can get TDA19988 datasheet? It is required to write graphics driver for QNX using Beaglebone Black device. Thanks in advance! Aug 19 06:57:01 heh Aug 19 06:57:45 lmike: yeah nobody wants to get sued by NXP here Aug 19 07:11:05 lmike, not gonna happenhere. Aug 19 07:34:54 my e-mail: mike.gorchak.qnx at gmail.com, thanks in advance for TDA19988 datasheet :) Aug 19 08:00:57 a wonderfull, JIHADistic monday moroning! Aug 19 08:01:05 gm koth Aug 19 08:01:10 hoi woglinde Aug 19 08:01:16 woglinde: komme stei? Aug 19 08:01:26 I am a quarter century old today :( Aug 19 08:01:27 ? Aug 19 08:01:49 das haha Aug 19 08:02:34 woglinde: "come stai" auf kanakisch ;) Aug 19 08:02:44 ? Aug 19 08:02:52 woglinde: "wie geht's" ^^; Aug 19 08:03:03 um Aug 19 08:03:05 das: poor boy... you've still so much to learn Aug 19 08:03:20 ka6sox: since when do you live in the european timezone? Aug 19 08:03:37 achtung morgen alles verboten keine sorgen sturm und drang cafe excellente Aug 19 08:03:38 KotH he so old he only needs 2 hours sleep Aug 19 08:03:51 +is Aug 19 08:04:22 KotH: will I be linearly depressed or is it logarithmic ? Aug 19 08:04:42 das logarithmic Aug 19 08:04:55 yay ! Aug 19 08:13:03 help me out guys.. is there an easy to use DIP IC for reading 2-4 thermocouples.. :P Aug 19 08:13:41 that's kind of a broad question Aug 19 08:13:42 what is DIP? Aug 19 08:13:57 in principle, sure. Aug 19 08:14:07 you may need several. Aug 19 08:14:13 woglinde: dual inline package? Aug 19 08:14:28 at least I think it means that :D Aug 19 08:14:31 (noob alert) Aug 19 08:14:37 Vaizki: depends on the circuit you want Aug 19 08:14:45 das: square root Aug 19 08:15:26 low input offset quad opamp rail-rail, setup to multiply *100 Aug 19 08:15:30 well I just need to get a few easy temp reading into BBB / msp430 / or similar Aug 19 08:15:40 why thermnocouokes Aug 19 08:15:46 thernocouokes Aug 19 08:15:49 ... Aug 19 08:15:52 thermal coconuts? Aug 19 08:16:02 couples Aug 19 08:16:05 toasty toadnuts? Aug 19 08:16:11 new ubuntu release? Aug 19 08:16:15 who stole the coconut? Aug 19 08:16:45 SpeedEvil: well I thought they are so common that there must be a gazillion chips to use out of the box :) Aug 19 08:17:07 yes, but there are easier ways Aug 19 08:17:19 four one wire temperature sensors Aug 19 08:17:33 bt Aug 19 08:17:42 if you don't need more than -20 to 120c Aug 19 08:17:47 yea but this is for a smoker/grill thingy, I need ones that will withstand up to 400°C Aug 19 08:18:02 o.O Aug 19 08:18:06 then a quad opamp to boost voltagfe Aug 19 08:18:12 samrt grill? Aug 19 08:18:21 from the thermocouple, then read into an ADC Aug 19 08:18:31 does the beagle have ADCs? Aug 19 08:18:33 woglinde: something like that Aug 19 08:18:35 SpeedEvil: sure Aug 19 08:18:44 perfect burgers Aug 19 08:19:20 my sous vide is fine with a ds18b20 because it never goes above 100 :) Aug 19 08:19:57 SpeedEvil: I'll have to investigate that. I suck at electronics. I was looking at this: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/AppNotes/00001154B.pdf Aug 19 08:20:01 multiply by 1000 with the opamp, to get about 10mv/c, then connect to an ADC Aug 19 08:20:02 but it's a bit overkill Aug 19 08:20:51 vastly Aug 19 08:20:54 that circuit + pt100 .. :) Aug 19 08:21:17 does the beagle have four 0-3.3v ADCs? Aug 19 08:21:29 1.8v Aug 19 08:21:58 I think there are 7 with 12bit resolution Aug 19 08:22:51 OK, then the idea is to multiply your voktagfe up into the 0-1.8v range Aug 19 08:23:09 for which you need about a *200 amp Aug 19 08:23:34 basically your stock negative feedback opamp circuit. Aug 19 08:23:59 for k-thermocouples? Aug 19 08:24:25 with a gain of 200, set by two resistors, and a low input offset voltage Aug 19 08:24:27 yes Aug 19 08:25:04 afk, picking up broken glass. ##electronics may be better Aug 19 08:27:05 ok thanks.. a bit wary of wiring directly into the BBB ADCs, don't want to fry them.. but let's see. I was surprised there weren't any ready made I2C chips to read temp probes that would be widely used. maybe it's just too simple a circuit :) Aug 19 08:45:15 ahoi Aug 19 08:47:40 av500: ausgezeichnet. Aug 19 08:48:29 wos? Aug 19 08:49:02 Vaizki: The easy way is a 1K resistor in series with the input to the ADC, with a 1uF capacitor to ground. This will greatly slow input speeds, but will work well for thermocouples. - a protection circuit Aug 19 08:52:41 av500: mr. burns sagt "ahoi" und "ausgezeichnet" Aug 19 08:57:53 Vaizki: http://www.analog.com/en/all-operational-amplifiers-op-amps/operational-amplifiers-op-amps/op491/products/product.html - for example may suit, though has somewhat higher than desired offset DIP really limits Aug 19 09:07:27 av500 ahoi brause Aug 19 09:22:01 hi Aug 19 09:22:10 anyone here? Aug 19 09:23:02 no. Aug 19 09:23:17 He's right. Nobodiy is here. Aug 19 09:23:55 here? where is here? Aug 19 09:25:12 woglinde: depends. Aug 19 09:27:24 hi folks! i'm desinging a breakout board for the beaglebone black. i'd like to have an usb host connector on the breakout-board, but cant find the usb_dp / usb_dm among the pins. a soulution would be to unsolder the usb-host connector, but i guess it would void the warranty. do you know an easier way? Aug 19 09:33:49 A 5cm lead with a plug on it Aug 19 09:34:01 ^- that Aug 19 09:34:05 I have no idea if the pins are otherwise broken out Aug 19 09:34:09 hi Aug 19 09:34:17 any one has idea about initramfs? Aug 19 09:34:19 The easy way to do it is to inspect the schematic Aug 19 09:34:36 any one has idea about initramfs? Aug 19 09:37:23 initramfs? Aug 19 09:37:48 aww he left already, I was getting ready to be entertained :-( Aug 19 09:38:46 off to carpetbomb another channel no doubt Aug 19 09:41:38 SpeedEvil : unfortunatelly there's no space in the enclosure for this :( one more hope, if they can ship it without the connector... is it an option or just a dream? :) Aug 19 09:42:05 unsolder Aug 19 09:42:39 you can also order one without the connector, but for the extra price you can just buy another one if your solder job goes wrong Aug 19 09:42:55 its not rocket surgery Aug 19 09:43:27 hm I have an idea about initramfs Aug 19 09:43:34 but thats my idea Aug 19 09:44:01 av500 : ok, i see :) Aug 19 09:49:08 aphex: you said "you'd like" to have it.. if it's an enclosure for specific app, are you sure you need usb? Aug 19 09:59:06 jackmitchell: remember this ? http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=9vLm6BRT Aug 19 09:59:24 got fixed by setting the governor to performance Aug 19 10:00:09 the kworker bug is produced by cpsw.c while transitioning to a higher cpu frequency Aug 19 10:05:47 Vaizki : sorry i was not 100% clear. currently i just designing the board, the enclosure will be the next task. but, it has to be as small as it can, thus no space for that extra 5 cm :( Aug 19 10:07:02 aphex: https://www.google.de/search?q=angled+usb+connector&client=ubuntu&hs=oXi&channel=cs&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=MO4RUrX7FImg7Ab4sIGgCw&ved=0CEYQsAQ&biw=1918&bih=971 Aug 19 10:07:10 thank you for the help, i guess, i will put 2 holes on the pce above the connector, and i will unsolder the connector only if its needed :) Aug 19 10:07:32 pce->pcb Aug 19 10:08:05 aphex: lots of angled conenctors there that would add <1cm Aug 19 10:08:48 LetoThe2nd : really nice option, thx! Aug 19 10:11:33 or you can hack together something with a ribbon cable? Aug 19 10:18:28 Vaizki : that would be the nasty way : D Aug 19 10:20:08 or just buy USB connectors that have solder points.. Aug 19 10:20:13 something like http://www.made-in-china.com/showroom/szymtec/product-detailLoDEzRdlJrcY/China-USB-Connector-AM-Solder-Short-Type-.html Aug 19 10:23:59 yes, i agree, using a small connector is far the clearest i can do. btw, with this method i can also have a hdmi connector on the pcb as well :) Aug 19 10:24:41 ouch Aug 19 10:24:49 you do not want to hand solder hdmi Aug 19 10:26:08 that's true... : / Aug 19 10:26:35 and you can't call it hdmi unless you have the cable etc tested... Aug 19 10:28:21 Vaizki: nah, you just can't use the hdmi logo Aug 19 10:28:38 Vaizki: Alternatively - mount on your pcb a couple of pogo pins to touch the USB pins. Aug 19 10:29:07 i can call my Hydrogenated Defensive Mega Injector HDMI as long as i want to. Aug 19 10:30:18 LetoThe2nd I won't buy it Aug 19 10:30:30 woglinde: don't worry, it'snot for sale anyways. Aug 19 10:34:05 pogo pins, yes! i can connect to the solderabe connector with them :) awsome! Aug 19 10:39:33 how well does the Beaglebone Black support RT Linux? Aug 19 10:39:52 the bbb does not support rt linux Aug 19 10:39:59 but rt linux might support the bbb Aug 19 10:40:16 benjamindees the question is which rt you need Aug 19 10:40:27 there is this rt and this rt Aug 19 10:40:42 and there is the other rt too Aug 19 10:42:22 and there is rt in what it means and rt in what you think it is :) Aug 19 10:43:20 LetoThe2nd koth already said it Aug 19 10:43:57 woglinde: KotH always already said it ;) Aug 19 10:45:05 hey! i dont talk _that_ much! Aug 19 10:45:25 not? ;) Aug 19 10:46:21 well.. maybe ^^' Aug 19 10:46:26 \o/ Aug 19 10:47:57 morning all Aug 19 10:49:43 this PRU thing sounds interesting Aug 19 10:50:27 JIHAD! m_billybob Aug 19 10:50:58 Merry Christmas ;) Aug 19 10:55:06 hi billybob Aug 19 10:55:24 so benjamindees found his rt Aug 19 11:06:14 does anyone here know much about the BBB Linux build? I'm trying to understand how Arago, OpenEmbedded, Yocto, PSP, EVM and a bunch of other stuff relates to what you get as provided by default in the BBB? Aug 19 11:15:11 it comes with angstrom on the emmc Aug 19 11:15:20 angstrom is yocto compatible Aug 19 11:15:26 whatever the hell that means Aug 19 11:15:39 yocto has something to do with openembedded Aug 19 11:16:08 but nobody knows quite what yocto is Aug 19 11:16:17 the people in charge will only tell you what it is not Aug 19 11:17:15 isnt yocto puppy just that it isnt ? Aug 19 11:17:40 yocto is a puss according to koen 3d printer! Aug 19 11:19:14 mru: yes this is the trouble I'm having :) Aug 19 11:19:36 Looking here: http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=Updating_The_Software Aug 19 11:19:41 you can put whatever you want on it of course Aug 19 11:19:54 The default image is available here: https://s3.amazonaws.com/angstrom/demo/beaglebone/BBB-eMMC-flasher-2013.06.20.img.xz Aug 19 11:20:13 mru: yep - but I'm just using the BBB as a lesson in building linux from scratch Aug 19 11:20:31 the actual Linux From Scratch project doesn't seem to applicable to the ARM processors Aug 19 11:21:02 last year I asked the Wind River people what Yocto is .. a lot of babbling and very little that my technical mind could grasp Aug 19 11:21:19 I'm not entirely sure what code base I need to use for the kernel though Aug 19 11:21:39 there a kernel git tree on github Aug 19 11:21:47 there's this: https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/tree/3.8 Aug 19 11:21:54 yeah, use that Aug 19 11:22:01 why does everyone who comes to the channel want to compile their own kernel Aug 19 11:22:16 better question is, why do they all fail? Aug 19 11:22:26 ok, message taken Aug 19 11:22:27 cya Aug 19 11:22:29 yea there's that.. but why. Aug 19 11:22:51 to get a different configuration perhaps Aug 19 11:24:05 possibly.. or they don't realize that the kernels already out there can do what they need without rolling their own Aug 19 11:24:26 I usually need to tweak something or other Aug 19 11:25:12 not that I'm against compiling your own kernel, just seems like a disproportionate amount of people show up and the first part of their project is compiling a kernel Aug 19 11:25:30 it's usually the first thing I do with a new board Aug 19 11:25:39 kinda hard to do anything at all without a kernel Aug 19 11:26:05 yea well would you log on to an irc channel to ask how to do it? Aug 19 11:26:15 no Aug 19 11:27:54 some abstraction must be missing(on x86 people don't). I have been thinking about the same questoins poping up every hour or so also on the mailing list. In the past I have used a KB / FAQ type website to answer those questions. The problem is of course that there are multiple answers :P Aug 19 11:28:35 in part the problem is that these people don't actually know what they want Aug 19 11:28:40 much less what they need Aug 19 11:28:44 the the questions seam legit. only finding the answer isn't always. take the eMMC and external SD-card on the BBB Aug 19 11:29:30 I have only found one case where I would have liked to recompile the kernel for the BBB, so far been happy with the stock Arch kernel images Aug 19 11:29:52 mru: also true but that is because there some things are incomplete/unsolved if there where only one way to togle the GPIO's we would not have so much hassle. Aug 19 11:29:57 I've always built my own kernels Aug 19 11:30:03 and even in that case I just built the driver I needed as a module against kernel headers Aug 19 11:30:06 since 1995 or so Aug 19 11:30:36 yea in the 90's I did too.. but most people have no need to Aug 19 11:30:49 I don't want the bloated distro kernels Aug 19 11:31:30 sure. but as I said, you're not popping in on IRC channels asking someone to hold your hand through it Aug 19 11:32:10 people seem to expect there to exist a set of #exactsteps by which they can become instant experts Aug 19 11:32:14 so just thinking out loud, why are these people seeing a custom kernel as their solution while they'd probably never do it on a laptop pc. Aug 19 11:33:30 mru: like, take this bag of "instant expertise mix", dissolve in vodka, drink, and be an expert? ;) Aug 19 11:33:36 ok so maybe some of them got it as a school project.. some think they need to recompile the kernel to get i2c working or stop the leds from blinking.. etc Aug 19 11:33:43 I gave up building a kernel for the TI keystone dsp chip Aug 19 11:33:57 Vaizki: on x86 it is certainly true but if you follow the kind of things people do here you sometimes end up the "o yes you will have to write a kernel driver for this" or you just need to modify the device tree Aug 19 11:34:02 Vaizki yocto is the intel project you can buy support for Aug 19 11:34:24 and it is the stable distrp + some bsp's Aug 19 11:34:47 keesj: yes, sometimes. I have been there myself. but it's a bit scary that they want to write kernel drivers and have no idea how to compile the kernel. Aug 19 11:35:35 and it doesn't help that LDD3 is so out of date it isn't even funny Aug 19 11:37:02 on a different topic, google now is funny at times Aug 19 11:37:43 just now, out of the blue, it suggests that I want to go to london waterloo station Aug 19 11:37:58 ? Aug 19 11:38:02 they just want something to work not write a kernel driver and perhaps the answer should read "this is not possible unless you are a kernel haxor" or some other answer we can expect them to be able to follow Aug 19 11:38:14 maps suggest you where to go? Aug 19 11:38:18 mru, do it ! it might change your life ... g-now might know something you dont ! Aug 19 11:38:26 woglinde: Google Now does Aug 19 11:38:37 sometimes it's eerily accurate Aug 19 11:38:48 and sometimes it's outrageously wrong Aug 19 11:39:37 like whenever I arrive at the airport in stockholm, it pops up directions to the friend's place I usually go Aug 19 11:40:01 or rather the library next door Aug 19 11:40:13 deus ex machina ... :) Aug 19 11:40:23 as if I didn't know how to get there Aug 19 11:41:27 I will not use it Aug 19 11:42:16 I enabled it to see what it did Aug 19 11:42:36 it can do more useful things too Aug 19 11:42:43 that don't require location tracking Aug 19 11:43:00 like if you pull it up near a bus stop or train station it shows departure times Aug 19 11:44:48 hm if I am near I can look at the printed table Aug 19 11:45:04 assuming there is one Aug 19 11:45:20 hm Aug 19 11:45:22 and you're standing within, say, 2 feet of it Aug 19 11:45:30 I do not leave germany this much Aug 19 11:46:37 and all bus stations i know have printed tables on them :) Aug 19 11:46:47 stations, yes Aug 19 11:46:53 bus stops not always Aug 19 11:47:12 and there are the turkish ones, where there are no printed tables, but even if there would be, the busses would not depart at that time Aug 19 11:47:13 and sometimes they do, but someone has destroyed it Aug 19 11:47:30 of course buses never run to schedule anyway Aug 19 11:47:36 * KotH doesnt go to 3rd world countries that often Aug 19 11:47:45 in .ch they do :) Aug 19 11:47:46 do swiss buses run on time? Aug 19 11:48:01 hm we have digital signs on some line now Aug 19 11:48:12 on rush houry they have usually 1-2min of delay, 5min when it's really bad Aug 19 11:48:18 hour* Aug 19 11:48:23 woglinde: we have those here too, and they're always wrong Aug 19 11:48:30 a couple of bus routes in stockholm are almost always on time Aug 19 11:48:38 but only because there is no set time table Aug 19 11:49:07 they start the route every 5 minutes and hope for the best Aug 19 11:49:31 lol Aug 19 11:49:40 it works surprisingly well Aug 19 11:49:49 mru: remember the metro schedules in .jp? Aug 19 11:49:56 what about them? Aug 19 11:50:04 they are on time! Aug 19 11:50:09 I never thought about the schedules Aug 19 11:50:17 usually off by less than 30s Aug 19 11:50:38 I once saw trains delayed by over 30m around osaka Aug 19 11:51:06 what happend? some tunnel collapsed? or earthquake? Aug 19 11:51:18 unexpected heavy snowfall during the night Aug 19 11:51:25 Hi all. Aug 19 11:51:49 I can't data out to P9_28. Aug 19 11:51:57 Help me. Aug 19 11:52:05 heh.. yeah that can be the beginning of a bad day Aug 19 11:52:33 I can other data out to other pins. Aug 19 11:52:51 which pins? Aug 19 11:52:52 But can't P9_28 Aug 19 11:53:00 * mru did not know that 'data' was a verb Aug 19 11:53:02 on xeno389? Aug 19 11:53:03 in .ch we once had really havy snow fall. within 24h we had 1.5m snow (standing, not fallen) in the middle of zürich... rural areas had up to 5m Aug 19 11:53:13 it was the day when .ch stood still Aug 19 11:53:54 also the time when people choose to go skiing in the middle of zürich :) Aug 19 11:54:10 koth faster than running Aug 19 11:54:12 BBB Aug 19 11:54:36 woglinde: running? in >1m snow? when was the last time you have seen snow? ;-) Aug 19 11:54:37 Tsooj you have looked up the TRM? Aug 19 11:55:00 koth that's why I said its faster than running Aug 19 11:57:56 Anyone help me?

Aug 19 13:05:31 how could I possibly have a vendor tree? Aug 19 13:05:35 I'm not a vendor Aug 19 13:06:00 ok, then you are evil without a vendor tree Aug 19 13:06:49 KotH: Drive. Aug 19 13:07:03 KotH: But there are unfortuante other issues meaning I don't travel much Aug 19 13:07:23 i dont travel much either Aug 19 13:07:36 but i lost count of how many times i flew somewhen in highschool... Aug 19 13:07:43 can you drive to japan? Aug 19 13:07:51 See above issues. (Chronic fatigue syndrom) Aug 19 13:07:53 e Aug 19 13:08:03 that doesn't sound pleasant Aug 19 13:08:06 afaik there is a path where you can go using ferries from .ru Aug 19 13:08:19 I doubt Aug 19 13:08:34 there are ferries between japan and korea Aug 19 13:09:00 but I doubt there's a ferry from alaska to russia Aug 19 13:09:19 you can drive over the straight in winter Aug 19 13:09:33 seems risky to cross the Bering on a boat Aug 19 13:09:46 there are lots of turkish lorry drivers who use that path to bring cheap wood from alska to .tr Aug 19 13:09:58 koth lol Aug 19 13:10:04 * KotH is not joking Aug 19 13:10:41 but why they dont buy wood in china and bring it to .tr is beyond me Aug 19 13:11:32 Chinese wood is fake wood made from grass. Aug 19 13:13:28 but at least it's all natural Aug 19 13:13:34 so it is healthy Aug 19 13:14:01 * SpeedEvil ponders his bamboo crop.

Aug 19 16:13:56 from what I've been reading in BB google group etc. it seems we should plug all USB devices from the boot Aug 19 16:14:22 so, USB hot plug feature should not be used or at least is not stable Aug 19 16:14:30 it isn't? Aug 19 16:15:08 did he really say stable and USB in the same sentence? Aug 19 16:15:32 what do you mean? Aug 19 16:15:41 yes with the all important... 'not' qualifier Aug 19 16:15:42 ka6sox: that's ok if it also includes illusion Aug 19 16:17:57 is anyone ever suspect when a corporate survey says it is anonymous? Aug 19 16:18:43 you mean, BBB's USB is not stable as if the board should not be sold? Aug 19 16:19:42 there are perfectly good uses for the board that do not involve usb Aug 19 16:19:55 OK, I see Aug 19 16:20:09 and some people seem to be using usb ok Aug 19 16:21:53 jmss, not every device that has a driver on x86 that works well has a driver on ARM that works as well... Aug 19 16:22:09 really? Aug 19 16:22:16 patches welcomed to fix them and make them better. Aug 19 16:22:21 aren't most drivers arch-neutral? Aug 19 16:26:43 jmss: current draw form USB is lower than the standard 500mA Aug 19 16:30:35 my limited experience is that beagle USB is ok, if you don't push it very hard Aug 19 16:31:37 thurgood: so i shouldn't hang my USB lava lamp off of it? Aug 19 16:35:58 here's a kind of corner case that question for C... if you declare a variable as static within a function does it keep it's value across different thread instances? Aug 19 16:36:48 I suppose I could test if no one knows off the top of mru's head :P Aug 19 16:39:54 mranostay, can you explain what you mean about the current? Aug 19 16:40:39 thurgood: C does not know about threads Aug 19 16:40:56 anything declared with 'static' has 'static storage duration' Aug 19 16:41:13 this means there's space allocated for it in a data section Aug 19 16:41:58 any read will see whatever value was last written within the limits of the system memory model Aug 19 16:42:39 I think the default in the image I'm using (one from armhf) has increased current limit Aug 19 16:43:01 from 500 to 1300 mA (?) Aug 19 16:46:43 heh impossible Aug 19 16:46:59 1300mA over a USB port? Aug 19 16:47:13 <[1]clemahieu> Hey folks. I'm attempting to operate the BBB's TSC ADC via the memory mapped registers. It seems like I can enable a step though the fifo never fills up. Could it be possible that the preinstalled services are emptying the fifo before my program is able to drain it? Aug 19 16:47:36 mranostay: his usb doesn't stop at 11, it goes to 26 Aug 19 16:49:39 "The June 9th images reconfigure the current regulator at boot to allow up to 1.3 amps to be sourced from the USB." Aug 19 16:57:16 mmmmm mighty taco Aug 19 16:58:19 mmm tacos! Aug 19 16:58:44 gee...I guess software *can* do everything..including upgrade hardware!

Aug 19 17:01:42 * hatguy calls for beer Aug 19 17:01:45 it certainly makes for a nice quick way to test interfaces. Aug 19 17:01:46 userspace arduino? Aug 19 17:01:50 wth is that?

Aug 19 17:03:51 someday i need to buy one of these arduino thingies and try them Aug 19 17:05:19 arduino-like ? Aug 19 17:05:20 hrm. Aug 19 17:05:21 KotH: or just use it on black Aug 19 17:05:50 CanyonMAD: basically it's a wiring implementation for linux Aug 19 17:06:08 Isn't that kind of like painting your McLaren to make it look more like a Yugo? Aug 19 17:06:09 :-) Aug 19 17:06:24 CanyonMAD: sorry i do not know those references Aug 19 17:06:42 Oh. One is a very nice car, the other is a very awful car Aug 19 17:07:51 CanyonMAD: ahh, it's not different than having lower end languages on any system Aug 19 17:09:05 can i connect, program and debug beaglebone black through the ethernet as shown in some videos(derek molloy). thank you Aug 19 17:09:25 arun: why do you ask? Aug 19 17:09:43 what does that mean? Do they think the videos were faked like the moon landings? Aug 19 17:09:47 no, the video is fake Aug 19 17:11:35 prpplague: i'd need a black for that :) Aug 19 17:12:03 KotH: ahh ok, just assumed you had one since you lurk here often Aug 19 17:12:19 prpplague: it's all koen's and mru's fault! Aug 19 17:12:38 _my_ fault? Aug 19 17:12:45 of course! who else? Aug 19 17:12:53 _troll_? Aug 19 17:12:55 you introduced me to these crazy guys! Aug 19 17:12:55 ka6sox: <--- do you use any of the beagle boards with the hobby? Aug 19 17:13:20 tacon: the hobbit has its own bbb Aug 19 17:13:41 apropos... the hobbit has been awfully quiet today Aug 19 17:14:08 tacon, is that a cross between taco and bacon? Aug 19 17:14:59 or a japanese nickname Aug 19 17:16:04 planing to buy beaglebone black and want to debug line by line. Aug 19 17:16:41 debugging a line at a time is not very useful Aug 19 17:16:54 most bugs result from the combination of lines, not any one line on its own Aug 19 17:18:11 but black does not have ftdi inbuilt. so is there any possible using Ethernet. Aug 19 17:18:41 o_0 Aug 19 17:19:00 * KotH takes notes Aug 19 17:29:13 hey, I'm trying to get the beaglebone black to boot using /dev/ttyO4 as the serial console, but I'm having no luck with getting the kernel or getty to use ttyO4 Aug 19 17:29:20 KotH: CHOCOLATE JIAHD Aug 19 17:29:29 mranostay: BEER JIHAD Aug 19 17:30:27 CHOCOLATE BEER JIHAD Aug 19 17:30:35 I've recompiled uboot to use the uart, and i have confirmed that u-boot uses the console, but setting console=ttyO4,115200n8 in uEnv.txt, or setting it manually in the uboot command line doesn't seem to work Aug 19 17:31:23 does anyone have any pointers for doing this? Aug 19 17:32:58 do you need advanced pointers? Aug 19 17:33:16 null pointers ought to be enough for anyone Aug 19 17:34:02 mranostay: ugh! what a waste of good chocolate! Aug 19 17:34:17 wait, I got getty to work on it! Aug 19 17:34:33 KotH: who said it was good chocolate? Aug 19 17:34:43 mru: hershey is _NOT_ chocolate Aug 19 17:34:45 i just modified the .dtb to set the uart to "okay" instead of "disabled" Aug 19 17:35:00 but i'm still not getting kernel boot messages Aug 19 17:35:33 hey calculus! nice to meet you!

Aug 19 19:16:35 I've discovered that I like 80s metal a lot better when the band stops wearing spandex Aug 19 19:16:51 the slayer show was awesome this weekend Aug 19 19:16:54 <_av500_> koen: then its not 80 metal Aug 19 19:17:12 heh Aug 19 19:17:20 <_av500_> ask LetoThe2nd Aug 19 19:17:37 koen: yeah slayer was awesome when i saw them at like Ozzfest 04 (i think it was) Aug 19 19:18:00 * mranostay had such a contact buzz Aug 19 19:19:01 jkridner, any chance a BBB could be sent gratis to Greg Nutt who makes NuttX (http://nuttx.org/)? He's interested in adding am335x support http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/nuttx/message/4217 Aug 19 19:19:14 <_av500_> nuts Aug 19 19:19:15 koen: although i have the bad luck of standing where a mosh pit starts Aug 19 19:21:31 hi Aug 19 19:21:53 heh Aug 19 19:22:24 mranostay: one advantage of weighing 220 pounds, pits aren't "bad luck" :) Aug 19 19:23:24 <_av500_> koen: 220? Aug 19 19:23:53 dutch pounds Aug 19 19:24:12 i am searching a easy way to install nginx on the beaglebone black. Is the a way with opkg or ipk? Aug 19 19:24:34 koen: metal fan?

Aug 19 19:34:13 reading yocto docs already made my evening mostly blurry. Aug 19 19:34:58 bb Aug 19 19:37:23 <_av500_> what actually is yocto? Aug 19 19:39:13 _av500_: some octopus shop Aug 19 19:39:35 an ARM distribution? ;) Aug 19 19:39:54 no that is Angst Rom Aug 19 19:40:00 * mranostay ducks from koen Aug 19 19:40:39 yocto, putting the angst in angstrom Aug 19 19:41:09 that makes sense, thanks for clearing that up Aug 19 19:48:39 Crofton|work: ping Aug 19 19:48:56 pong Aug 19 19:49:20 Crofton|work: i can't remember if i ever got back to about my question on spectrum analyzers Aug 19 19:49:28 Crofton|work: since you were on holiday at the time Aug 19 19:49:33 ah Aug 19 19:49:35 I do not think sop Aug 19 19:49:41 what was the question Aug 19 19:50:04 LetoThe2nd: rotfl Aug 19 19:50:25 koen was at lowlands Aug 19 19:50:31 Crofton|work: was looking for some recommendations on a low cost solution for doing pre-FCC/CE certifications Aug 19 19:50:49 old used one ? Aug 19 19:50:55 Crofton|work: i found this - http://www.edn.com/design/failure-analysis/4389545/Can-a-129-spectrum-analyzer-be-any-good Aug 19 19:51:13 Crofton|work: i've ordered all the stuff, but haven't gotten a chance to test it yet Aug 19 19:52:05 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Advantest-R3267-Spectrum-Analyzer-Opt-01-61-02-74-21-/271244336697?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f276c1e39 Aug 19 19:52:08 is what I ahve Aug 19 19:52:14 range is much better Aug 19 19:52:49 Crofton|work: not really usefull for fcc/ce relevant stuff Aug 19 19:52:56 prpplague, I can recommend the signalhound stuff, I own both the SA and the SG Aug 19 19:53:14 Crofton|work: in my experience most of the violations are below 100MHz Aug 19 19:53:32 I suck at FCC/CE stuff :) Aug 19 19:53:33 Crofton|work: usually 10-50MHz and most often from DC/DC converters Aug 19 19:55:20 dnil: got a url? Aug 19 19:55:43 One nice thing about the signalhound instruments if that they come with an API (also one for BeagleBoard !) Aug 19 19:55:50 http://www.signalhound.com/ Aug 19 19:56:22 yea we mainly just want to make sure there are no "hot spots" Aug 19 19:56:29 So if you want to get real fancy in automation you can go as crazy as you like Aug 19 19:56:38 dnil: thanks i'll have a look Aug 19 19:57:25 prpplague, You want to pre-screen for radiated emissions? Aug 19 19:57:32 dnil: yea Aug 19 19:57:44 prpplague: what kind of devices? Aug 19 19:57:46 dnil: just to make sure there isn't something obvious Aug 19 19:57:52 prpplague: 0815 uC/uP stuff? Aug 19 19:57:58 KotH: sbcs such as the black Aug 19 19:58:24 prpplague: pre screening wont really help unless you were cutting edges at the degsing Aug 19 19:58:48 prpplague: most of the violations on such boards are <3dB, often just half a dB Aug 19 19:59:02 prpplague, Yeah, the test setup is the tricky part. Antennas, chambers etc Aug 19 19:59:04 prpplague: nothign you can detect with an uncalibrated instrument Aug 19 19:59:45 KotH: that doesn't fit with the information i have, we have plenty of information on how to do the pre-screening, i was mainly just looking for reasonable cost tools Aug 19 19:59:56 prpplague: ok... Aug 19 20:00:11 dnil: we already do our own prescreening, but we just lease the equipment for 30 days when we need to do it Aug 19 20:00:23 dnil: so experience/procedure wise we have that under control Aug 19 20:01:37 prpplague, Ok, I think the signalhound stuff could work well for you then. Take a look. Cost is reasonable. Speed is the downside compared to a 200k Rohde&Schwartz instrument, but that shouldn't matter in your case Aug 19 20:02:06 dnil: a reason to grab a cup of coffee :) Aug 19 20:02:12 dnil: thanks! i think we can lease one of those as well, so i will do a test run with one... Aug 19 20:03:29 prpplague, I do basic antenna tuning with that equipment as well, the SA and SG can be setup to track each other to that I can have a basic network analyzer (without phase information). Aug 19 20:03:52 mru: doh! i have trace error on one of the inner layers of my pcie black module Aug 19 20:04:00 dnil: ahh nice Aug 19 20:04:02 Works well enough to tune typical PCB antennas on embedded devices Aug 19 20:23:41 hi! i just got a beaglebone black but i'm having some issues getting it set up. can anyone help? Aug 19 20:24:15 Do you guys have a link to the datasheet of the eMMC nand flash used on the BBB? Aug 19 20:24:32 what issues do you have mtytel? Aug 19 20:24:38 i can mount the black, but almost all the files come up blank.. including the Start.htm Aug 19 20:25:12 didn't google the part number? Aug 19 20:25:17 they are of the size 0 without content? Aug 19 20:25:26 yes Aug 19 20:25:51 both are micron parts Aug 19 20:25:52 if it matters i'm on a mac, running 10.8 Aug 19 20:25:53 easy to find Aug 19 20:26:08 couldnt find it within 10min with google and wasn't patient enough yet to search longer :) Aug 19 20:26:19 * mranostay calls BS Aug 19 20:26:22 sicer: http://www.micron.com/products/support/fbga Aug 19 20:27:29 does it matter if you plug the usb cord into your big computer first, then the black? Aug 19 20:27:53 how could it? Aug 19 20:28:41 i don't know anything about usb. Aug 19 20:28:56 do you know anything about electricity? Aug 19 20:30:11 could you be less condescending to people starting out? Aug 19 20:31:09 heh Aug 19 20:33:16 did you have any connection yet? You could may try putty and connect via SSH or via the USB cable you mentioned. Aug 19 20:34:09 i just ssh'ed in, i could probably follow some online startup guides but it's still weird all the files are blank Aug 19 20:35:42 mtytel: that is quite odd. Aug 19 20:35:49 mtytel: how many boots have you done? Aug 19 20:36:11 i think this is number 4 Aug 19 20:36:22 I'm pretty sure the eMMC data sheet needs a micron login, but the JEDEC standard should be available Aug 19 20:36:56 ah, it's only certified for 3 boots Aug 19 20:37:26 ha. Aug 19 20:38:37 bradfa: does it need manual approval or just a signup? Aug 19 20:39:24 mru, signup but can't be from a gmail or similar (last time I checked) Aug 19 20:44:07 bradfa: student email to the rescue Aug 19 20:44:17 yeah, signup + clickwrap agreement Aug 19 20:44:21 mranostay, I'm pretty sure you can use your intel email... Aug 19 20:44:33 my personal email worked fine Aug 19 20:44:41 mru, does it end in @gmail.com? Aug 19 20:44:46 no Aug 19 20:44:48 well... Aug 19 20:45:01 why would it? Aug 19 20:45:07 that wouldn't be very personal Aug 19 20:45:29 * bradfa puts on tin hat Aug 19 20:47:48 NSA sees all Aug 19 21:17:39 but can it see why kids love cinnamon toast crunch? Aug 19 21:18:14 +1 Aug 19 21:18:23 silly rabbit Aug 19 21:29:36 Do you know the read and write speed of the eMMC on the BBB? Aug 19 21:29:47 try and find out Aug 19 21:30:17 cinamon-toast-cape Aug 19 21:31:06 at a previous job I worked on a set-top box we nicknamed 'the toaster' Aug 19 21:32:13 I had one running on my desk for a couple of years Aug 19 21:32:32 when I first got it, I also got a shiny new, white smartcard to use with it Aug 19 21:33:18 when I removed it after those years, it had a nice, golden-brown colour Aug 19 21:40:40 a set top box that creates gold! Aug 19 21:40:44 ;) Aug 19 21:41:25 for directv it sure did Aug 19 21:41:25 their first HD box Aug 19 21:45:21 heh Aug 19 21:45:35 sicer: http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/30 Aug 19 21:59:43 how is joel_ Aug 19 21:59:46 's liver Aug 19 22:00:50 pretty good with a nice chianti Aug 19 22:01:52 mranostay, owwiiee Aug 19 22:02:37 funny stuff Aug 19 22:03:40 Joel's Liver... that would be good indie band name Aug 19 22:05:58 djlewis: all fun and games until you wake up in a mexican hotel bathroom.. Aug 19 22:11:50 so apparently Engineering is the process of taking all the fun out of everything. Aug 19 22:14:21 emeb: yes TIL Aug 19 22:15:19 can anyone recommend a good audio interface for the beaglebone black? Aug 19 22:16:35 i forget does the HDMI audio not work? Aug 19 22:17:22 no i believe it works Aug 19 22:18:02 there you go Aug 19 22:18:09 or you can get the audio cape Aug 19 22:18:11 i'm looking for input, but i don't think the hdmi audio works Aug 19 22:18:17 audio in i mean Aug 19 22:18:26 emeb: http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/45 Aug 19 22:18:55 hdmi is only output Aug 19 22:22:21 i want to go pretty good quality so i was thinking about getting a usb sound card. Aug 19 22:22:46 audio cape is specifically incompatible with BBB Aug 19 22:23:02 probably collides with the on-board HDMI or something. Aug 19 22:23:31 and yeah - hdmi audio doesn't include input. Aug 19 22:23:59 so if you need audio input, better get a USB audio I/O dongle Aug 19 22:24:06 those generally work fine. Aug 19 22:24:32 yea ok, i'll try that route. Aug 19 22:24:52 i tried plugging in my scarlett 2i2 Aug 19 22:25:22 but it didn't turn on, Aug 19 22:26:36 usb and audio don't really go togather Aug 19 22:26:58 huh? Aug 19 22:26:59 then again USB sucks period Aug 19 22:27:04 yea huh? Aug 19 22:28:01 i think if you want good, low noise input you always get a dedicated external sound card and send the data over usb Aug 19 22:28:22 the actual audio doesn't go over usb. Aug 19 22:28:52 data over usb? Aug 19 22:29:27 the analog to digital converter is on the external sound card. once it's digital then it's sent over usb Aug 19 22:30:09 you mean the DAC is on the sound card Aug 19 22:30:39 i meant the ADC is on the sound card, but so is the DAC Aug 19 22:31:07 beer is in my hand Aug 19 22:32:06 beer or "beer" Aug 19 22:33:00 bear Aug 19 22:33:22 https://plus.google.com/u/0/117442282451472253219/posts/3hZrEgEfPE5 Aug 19 22:36:02 Drinkin some Pabst at the moment. Got a six of http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/free-state-octoberfest/2942/ but its not cold yet Aug 19 22:36:37 beer with me Aug 19 22:44:06 hmm.. my usb port doesn't seem to work Aug 19 22:44:17 georgem_home: Pabst what are you a hipster? Aug 19 22:44:22 that's why they call it usb Aug 19 22:44:44 useless serial bus? Aug 19 22:44:59 it's not actually connected, but since nobody expects usb to work, it doesn't matter Aug 19 22:45:47 georgem_home: have any of the Beast in your fridge as well Aug 19 22:46:23 u serious bro? Aug 19 22:46:43 mru rarely jokes Aug 19 22:46:50 or was that _av500_ .. bah Aug 19 22:47:07 http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/91 Aug 19 22:47:53 at this point i think 26+26 is a living entity Aug 19 22:49:18 mranostay: heh, no I'm not but PBR definately is a hipster beer although less terrible than most at the same price point. Once I get my home brew stuff up this moral dilemma will be a thing of the past. Aug 19 22:51:08 * mranostay thinks 26+26 needs to be a forture package Aug 19 22:51:13 *fortune even Aug 19 22:51:31 you mean like fortune cookies? Aug 19 22:52:03 georgem_home: you know what the fortune command does right? Aug 19 22:52:28 yeah Aug 19 22:54:10 Hello! Quick question: If I wanted to replicate the stock beaglebone black kernel/rootfs build procedure would I use the "setup-scripts" on the Angstrom Distro GitHub? Aug 19 22:54:18 heh first entry returned "You worry too much about your job. Stop it. You are not paid enough to worry." Aug 19 22:54:21 slothoholic: yes Aug 19 22:54:30 * wmat buzzes by on his stealth ski-doo Aug 19 22:54:34 * mranostay thinks that is for prpplague Aug 19 22:55:10 mranostay: You may not be paid enough to worry but if you don't succeed you may get paid enough to be laid off. Aug 19 22:56:18 prpplague: thanks Aug 19 22:56:33 * georgem_home munches on some of the new Sriracha Lays Chips Aug 19 22:57:10 i see, no hot plugging usb. Aug 19 22:58:48 georgem_home: resureing there Aug 19 22:59:03 you are forgeting in big companies actual work doesn't matter Aug 19 23:00:58 mranostay: possibly true, I don't work for a big company so I wouldn't really know. Aug 19 23:01:04 it's true Aug 19 23:01:18 and mranostay works for a company _much_ bigger than any I've ever worked for Aug 19 23:01:58 yeah. I've interviewed there. They apparently have a good track record when it comes to not laying people off. Aug 19 23:02:22 that just means they have other ways of making people leave Aug 19 23:02:30 yes, true Aug 19 23:03:41 georgem_home: and means the people that can't work anywhere else stay :) Aug 19 23:04:21 heh Aug 19 23:04:42 no. thats government employement Aug 19 23:05:18 so you end up with a huge collection of wallys and miltons Aug 19 23:05:33 * mranostay isn't commenting on that Aug 19 23:05:53 yeah... its kind of nice to work somewhere that doesn't mind cleaning house Aug 19 23:06:17 georgem_home: well two employers ago that place had no problem doing it :) Aug 19 23:06:28 just they never fired the management staff ever Aug 19 23:06:29 heh Aug 19 23:06:42 and ex-employer of mine did that Aug 19 23:06:47 fired a bunch of very good people Aug 19 23:07:06 If they fire good people then they are just dumb shits. Aug 19 23:07:14 they were indeed Aug 19 23:10:11 My dad got laid off once. He ended up working for the company that occupied the building of first said company after it epic failed. Aug 19 23:17:38 georgem_home: you work for a startup in Kansas? Aug 19 23:30:33 hey guys.. so i want to get into C++ with Angstrom.. what is the best IDE for writing cpp with BeagleBone black? Aug 19 23:31:24 on the BBB ? or cross compiling brimestone ? Aug 19 23:31:44 i dont know. Aug 19 23:31:50 which one is ideal? Aug 19 23:31:58 ideal depends on your background Aug 19 23:32:04 and what you want to do Aug 19 23:32:11 well.. Aug 19 23:32:20 background?? Aug 19 23:32:41 your programming knowledge Aug 19 23:33:13 oh? i did C in Com Engineering longgggg time ago.. Aug 19 23:33:20 i do a lot of PHP, jQuery, bash.... Aug 19 23:33:26 do you use eclipse? Aug 19 23:33:41 for bash i use textEdit Aug 19 23:33:55 for web stuff i ust good old dreamweaver code view Aug 19 23:34:14 so you are mostly windows based? Aug 19 23:34:33 or mac? Aug 19 23:34:37 Mac Aug 19 23:34:43 and ubuntu servers Aug 19 23:34:52 how do you edit stuff over there? Aug 19 23:34:57 ssh / vi / emacs? Aug 19 23:35:08 but computer hardware wise, im all apple stuff? even though i hate apple Aug 19 23:35:15 ssh/pico a lot Aug 19 23:35:27 lately vi and nano with BBB Aug 19 23:35:28 so you want and ide to do what for you? Aug 19 23:35:35 code completion? Aug 19 23:36:06 well.. i want to basically to eventually write Helicopter hardware stuff Aug 19 23:36:20 IMU.. type stuff? ( this is a hobby ) Aug 19 23:37:04 you might look at the userspace-arduino stuff Aug 19 23:37:20 not sure if they are setup for mac but you might push them in that direction Aug 19 23:37:25 Hi All, I was wondering if anyone could tell me if any of the WiFi capes work with the Black? I have checked the pinouts and they appear to be the same, but there is a note about compatibility on the listing. Aug 19 23:38:22 arduino??? Aug 19 23:38:45 right now it is makefiles Aug 19 23:38:56 but i think the goal is to be able to use the arduino ide Aug 19 23:39:05 well energia but same thing Aug 19 23:39:15 really?? Aug 19 23:39:18 whats it called? Aug 19 23:39:22 http://elinux.org/Userspace_Arduino:Libraries Aug 19 23:39:29 i use to play with Arduino.. but got board with it Aug 19 23:40:28 you will need an angstrom cross compiler for the mac Aug 19 23:40:43 does not exist Aug 19 23:41:10 does bitbake work on mac? Aug 19 23:41:11 Ohhh then use the Arduino IDE to upload it??? Aug 19 23:41:25 canadian cross compilers are the best, right wmat? Aug 19 23:41:29 Rickta59, nope..not last time I checked...I will ask a few folks Aug 19 23:41:39 mru, thats right "A" Aug 19 23:43:00 you can develop right on the BBB Aug 19 23:45:02 I need to collect the best of those 'you are not an embedded developer' I did a couple of years ago... Aug 19 23:45:19 http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/167 Aug 19 23:45:49 is it really good form to post links to your own quotes? Aug 19 23:46:46 I guess I could just requote it Aug 19 23:47:17 http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/187 Aug 19 23:47:34 heh Aug 19 23:50:30 http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/150 Aug 19 23:51:21 http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/151 Aug 19 23:53:46 mranostay: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VGsreexPmwc/TBqjjI__fUI/AAAAAAAAA9g/Ll3hzo52-0w/s1600/17.jpg Aug 19 23:54:50 SFW? Aug 19 23:54:59 yes Aug 19 23:55:21 at least for my current W Aug 19 23:55:22 :) Aug 19 23:55:27 heh only thing worse is a small company that is ran like a big one Aug 19 23:55:51 small companies wanting/pretending to be big are hell indeed Aug 19 23:56:04 last one was like that Aug 20 00:08:09 mranostay: this one may be ever so slightly nsfw: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VGsreexPmwc/TEWmK29n9UI/AAAAAAAABGw/yb6nd3YBSWc/s1600/36.jpg Aug 20 01:11:13 hello? Aug 20 01:11:40 does anyone know if you need to be plugged in with a power adapter to get full cpu usage out of the beagle bone black? Aug 20 01:37:10 Grrrrrr the am335x PM setup is screwy Aug 20 01:37:44 i miss the omap3's simple PRCM connection Aug 20 01:41:49 hehe, welcome to the jungle Aug 20 01:45:18 geez thanks Aug 20 01:45:41 is pr1_uart0 same as uart0?
