Sep 08 03:04:58 <nomel> I'M SO BORED.
Sep 08 04:36:32 <nilking_> using angstrom ion my beagleboard, $: opkg list qt4-x11*  gives me lots of options, which one should I install and during installation I am getting download fail as a msg
Sep 08 04:36:37 <nilking_> what could be a problem ?
Sep 08 04:52:52 <nomel> with 3.8, is there a way to power up the gpio without exporting pins?
Sep 08 04:53:18 <nomel> i see a power/control entry in /sys/class/gpiochip*/
Sep 08 04:53:29 <nomel> but setting it to "on" doesn't seem to work.
Sep 08 04:53:42 <nomel> still get bus errors when i do gpio register writes.
Sep 08 04:53:50 <nomel> (without exporting first)
Sep 08 05:38:53 <nomel> bah, forget it. i just exported pins 0, 32, 64, and 96.
Sep 08 05:39:01 <nomel> this is embedded...we don't have to do stuff right :D
Sep 08 09:47:22 <deanrock0> hi, i wonder how to debug bbb if the network doesn't work? (i tried to install arch on eMMC, lights are flashing, but it doesn't connect to the network)
Sep 08 09:50:10 <RypRap1> use screen+ keaboard ?
Sep 08 09:50:30 <RypRap1> anyone got a gimmick solution for : ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
Sep 08 09:50:30 <RypRap1> Cannot open sequencer - No such file or directory
Sep 08 09:50:30 <RypRap1>  ?
Sep 08 09:52:45 <deanrock0> will try, that didn't even cross my mind
Sep 08 10:00:36 <koen> RypRap1: attach a sequencer to your bone and retry?
Sep 08 10:02:54 <RypRap1> i dont have hardware seq, and i fail to build softsynth
Sep 08 10:04:56 <RypRap1> modprob snd-seq gives : module not found, so i have to find it anywhere...
Sep 08 10:20:49 <deanrock0> my bbb freezes at tux icon on boot, where should i start troubleshooting
Sep 08 10:53:55 <rneese> deanrock0 you here
Sep 08 10:54:28 <rneese> have youtreid another distro ?
Sep 08 10:54:59 <deanrock0> no, except angstrom which is installed by default
Sep 08 10:55:14 <rneese> you can use a 2 gig sd and use a pre built img
Sep 08 10:55:42 <rneese> http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardDebian
Sep 08 10:55:50 <deanrock0> arch works on sd card, but doesn't boot on mmc
Sep 08 10:56:15 <rneese> you could get a new armstrong and reflash also
Sep 08 10:56:37 <deanrock0> don't see how that would help, cause i don't want armstrong
Sep 08 10:57:01 <rneese> https://rcn-ee.net/deb/flasher/wheezy/BBB-eMMC-flasher-debian-7.1-2013-08-26.img.xz
Sep 08 10:57:41 <rneese> then grab that flasher
Sep 08 10:57:54 <rneese> it will flash debian wheezy
Sep 08 10:58:08 <rneese> you will need a 2 gig micro sd
Sep 08 10:58:18 <deanrock0> and how will wheezy help me?
Sep 08 10:58:22 <rneese> and if on windows winimg
Sep 08 10:58:34 <rneese> what os do you want o run on it
Sep 08 10:58:40 <deanrock0> arch
Sep 08 10:59:06 <rneese> niot heard of anyone running orch on a bbb
Sep 08 10:59:09 <RypRap1> why arch ?
Sep 08 10:59:35 <deanrock0> no specific reason
Sep 08 10:59:56 <rneese> Linux: Angstrom Distribution, Ubuntu, Debian, ArchLinux, Gentoo, Sabayon, Buildroot, Erlang, Fedora
Sep 08 11:00:08 <rneese> those are all the ones I have heard ported
Sep 08 11:00:32 <rneese> Arch has a img it llooks like
Sep 08 11:01:13 <rneese> http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7/ti/beaglebone-black
Sep 08 11:01:23 <rneese> go read that it should help you
Sep 08 11:01:37 <deanrock0> i did, doesn't help me
Sep 08 11:03:01 <rneese> then try a debian
Sep 08 11:03:12 <rneese> on a sd and see if it boots
Sep 08 11:03:31 <rneese> ant then talk to the arch porters
Sep 08 11:04:49 <deanrock0> arch works on sd, no reason to try debian
Sep 08 11:07:01 <rneese> if it works on the sd then it should work on the emmc
Sep 08 11:07:37 <deanrock0> you don't say
Sep 08 11:07:57 <deanrock0> i know it should, was just asking what could be the reason that it's stuck at boot
Sep 08 11:10:36 <rneese> I would just start over and boot from the arch cf and then retry
Sep 08 11:11:00 <rneese> I can only go by what the site says to do
Sep 08 11:11:32 <deanrock0> did that already, the same result
Sep 08 11:12:03 <Tenkawa> whats it doing?
Sep 08 11:12:12 * Tenkawa missed the earlier part
Sep 08 11:13:46 <deanrock0> arch doesnt boot from emmc, it's stuck at boot (tux logo)
Sep 08 11:15:08 <Tenkawa> did you modify uenv and use the user button to boot?
Sep 08 11:15:25 <deanrock0> didnt modify, didnt use user button
Sep 08 11:15:59 <Tenkawa> hmm.. you said emmc though so you shouldnt need to i dont think
Sep 08 11:15:59 <Eagle__> hello everyone
Sep 08 11:16:14 <Tenkawa> deanrock0: not using an external sd at all right?
Sep 08 11:16:24 <deanrock0> nope
Sep 08 11:16:28 <Tenkawa> hmm
Sep 08 11:16:36 * Tenkawa only uses external
Sep 08 11:16:44 <deanrock0> it works fine from sd card, just wanted to try emmc
Sep 08 11:16:48 <Tenkawa> ah
Sep 08 11:16:53 <deanrock0> i guess i will stick to sd card for now
Sep 08 11:17:00 <Tenkawa> yeah i wont be much help..
Sep 08 11:17:13 <Tenkawa> good luck though
Sep 08 11:17:18 <deanrock0> thanks anyway
Sep 08 11:17:38 <Eagle__> I am having trouble debugging a C program using eclipse/GDB from a 64 bit Xubuntu. I am getting this error message: "Remote 'g' packet reply is too long". Presumably this is an architecture issue. Any ideas how to solve?
Sep 08 11:18:20 <Eagle__> I am using gdb-multiarch on host
Sep 08 11:18:53 <Eagle__> it reports "This GDB was configured as "x86_64-linux-gnu"." upon startup. any ideas?
Sep 08 12:05:15 <michael179> Hello! Just wondering if it is possible to disable the built-in webserver on Angstrom from broadcasting on port 80 so my lighttpd server can go on port 80.
Sep 08 12:05:28 <michael179> Using Angstrom latest production build (2013.09.04)
Sep 08 12:10:10 <koen> michael179: of course that's possible
Sep 08 12:10:11 <koen> michael179: systemctl disable bonescript.socket
Sep 08 12:13:08 <michael179> Thanks koen, seemed to have worked!
Sep 08 12:13:22 <michael179> koen: You wouldn't happen to know anything about Arch Linux ARM on BBB?
Sep 08 12:15:09 <michael179> Or anyone here would know about Arch Linux ARM for BBB?
Sep 08 12:15:59 <RypRap1> michael179: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7/ti/beaglebone-black
Sep 08 12:16:55 <michael179> Oh, yes, well I followed their guide on how to setup but am having problems with ethernet. It doesn't seem to connect when in other OSs it does
Sep 08 12:17:08 <ranjani> hi
Sep 08 12:17:23 <michael179> Hi
Sep 08 12:17:30 <RypRap1> hi
Sep 08 12:18:07 <ranjani> does d original beagle bone is capable for image processing applications?
Sep 08 12:18:26 <ranjani> or only d beagle bone black is?
Sep 08 12:18:26 <SpeedEvil> Sure.
Sep 08 12:18:35 <SpeedEvil> You can use any computer for image processing.
Sep 08 12:19:02 <ranjani> so, does it support opencv? or evn matlab codes?
Sep 08 12:19:23 <ranjani> i have no experience with opencv.
Sep 08 12:21:38 <rneese> I wich there was a cape with a sata port on it
Sep 08 12:21:50 <RypRap1> opencv is installed by default on angstrom
Sep 08 12:53:14 <Jonnyw2k1> rneese can you not just use a usb-sata adapter?
Sep 08 12:53:53 <Jonnyw2k1> http://www.amazon.com/Drive-Adapter-Converter-Optical-External/dp/B001OORMVQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1378644820&sr=8-2&keywords=sata%2Fide+usb

Sep 08 13:36:23 <Jonnyw2k> anyone know of any good tutorials for doing gpios in C/C++ ?
Sep 08 13:38:06 <rneese> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/yflrTE39KhQ
Sep 08 13:38:12 <rneese> might be a good help

Sep 08 13:38:41 <rneese> it says to look at
Sep 08 13:52:22 <Anguel> hi guys! what happend to the IRC logs, I think they existed a couple of days ago
Sep 08 13:53:48 <dm8tbr> Anguel: I guess you mean http://www.beagleboard.org/irclogs/ ?
Sep 08 13:54:25 <Anguel> dm8tbr: yes, it says it does not exist
Sep 08 13:54:44 <dm8tbr> no idea what happened there
Sep 08 13:55:14 <Anguel> :(
Sep 08 13:55:28 <dm8tbr> prpplague: who does the page and the log bot?
Sep 08 13:58:13 <mru> jkridner?
Sep 08 13:58:19 <koen> yes, jkridner
Sep 08 13:58:34 <dm8tbr> doesn't seem to be online though
Sep 08 13:58:52 <koen> prolly getting back from OSHW summit
Sep 08 13:59:29 <Anguel> i noticed the missing logs problem a couple of days ago and thought it would be a temporary error but the error still shows up
Sep 08 15:17:59 <RypRap1> fluidsynth -n -l -a oss -o audio.oss.device=/dev/audio2 GS_Bk/GS.sf2 ./Hallyday_-_Le_Penitencier.mid

Sep 08 17:34:25 <Jonnyw2k> Do the PRUs need to be reprogrammed every boot?
Sep 08 17:49:40 <_SY_> hello
Sep 08 17:51:33 <_SY_> anyone here?
Sep 08 18:00:45 <ao2> hi I am looking for some info about hardware accelerated OpenCV on Beaglebone Black, I could not find anything readily usable on google, do anyone of you have more info?
Sep 08 18:03:53 <thurgood> ac2... I don't know anything about it other than having heard the term before... if you have a specific question you may get more responses though
Sep 08 19:23:27 <tolip> anyone got any ideas why a BBB runnin deb wheezy would recognise a USB device on boot but not hot plug??? it's a rtl-sdr dongle. I checked what I know how to in udev, I have a rule that works on boot. thx in advance if you have any ideas! :)
Sep 08 19:51:25 <rneese> I have no issue splugging in a drive after boot
Sep 08 19:51:34 <rneese> and I am using the wheezy img
Sep 08 19:51:55 <Tenkawa> tolip: does it load any secondary kernel modules? i,ve seen usb-storagr do that to me before
Sep 08 19:52:10 <Tenkawa> er usb-storage
Sep 08 19:52:23 <rneese> I say the best to use are sandisk
Sep 08 19:55:10 <tolip> Tenkawa: I don't think so. it hotplugs on intel boxes runnin slackware even though I know I have udev issues on the slack boxes, lol
Sep 08 19:57:01 <Tenkawa> intriguing
Sep 08 19:57:18 <Tenkawa> tolip: does lsusb see it ok?
Sep 08 19:58:33 <tolip> yep
Sep 08 19:59:44 <Tenkawa> very odd indeed
Sep 08 20:00:06 <tolip> it's always sumthin, lol
Sep 08 20:00:37 <thurgood> I believe there's an ongoing hotplug issue with more recent kernels and the bbb
Sep 08 20:01:21 <frustrated> has anyone loaded kali linux to the beagle board black?
Sep 08 20:01:21 <thurgood> don't use beaglebone's personally... just something I've heard in passing
Sep 08 20:01:53 <Tenkawa> i dont hotplug anything on my bbb
Sep 08 20:02:31 <thurgood> I have heard that a hub in between may help, 4wiw
Sep 08 20:04:45 <tolip> I spoze it's time to figger out the kernel build on the BBB, probably a kernel config thingy. The new kernels have goofed up a few things on my intel boxes, and the config options are a moving target to find and set up same stuff as older kernels
Sep 08 20:09:30 <rneese> I wish they had preconfigured kernel src
Sep 08 20:09:38 <rneese> you could pull
Sep 08 20:09:45 <rneese> would make it easier
Sep 08 20:11:01 <rneese> man this build is slow on the bbb
Sep 08 20:11:25 <rneese> ok we need 1 gig of ram
Sep 08 20:11:50 <dm8tbr> compiling on the bbb? srsly?
Sep 08 20:13:46 <tolip> I just plugged a hub in, the uninstalled device is still there and the hub is not, lol (lsusb). something with the event notifications
Sep 08 20:15:29 <tolip> my beagle just spent a day compiling gnuradio. It keeps him from chewing on the furniture while I'm out ;)
Sep 08 20:16:15 <rneese> lol
Sep 08 20:16:32 <rneese> I am compiling deb pkgs of freeswitch softswitch
Sep 08 20:16:51 <rneese> and did it yesterday but there was a break in the code
Sep 08 20:17:22 <rneese> took 15 hours ... so I figure by the time it finished my odroid-x2 quad core will be here
Sep 08 20:17:54 <rneese> I like the bbb wish they would go quad core and 2 to  gig of ram
Sep 08 20:18:00 <rneese> and 4 gig emmc
Sep 08 20:18:08 <rneese> then it would be a rocking board
Sep 08 20:18:39 <rneese> then need to change the emmc to use a socket like on the odroid boards
Sep 08 20:18:47 <rneese> so you can swap out sizes
Sep 08 20:18:50 <rneese> and disk
Sep 08 20:19:27 <RypRap1> +a robotic arm to self plug devices ?
Sep 08 20:19:28 <rneese> I bought the bbb to dev on and then someone using my freeswitch install script turned around and paid for the odroid
Sep 08 20:19:48 <rneese> so I have had the bbb since wednesday
Sep 08 20:20:03 <rneese> and come tomorrow I will have my quadcore system
Sep 08 20:21:51 <rneese> but the goal of the bbb is a mini home pbx system
Sep 08 20:35:05 <koen> rneese: that's why sane people cross compile
Sep 08 20:35:54 <rneese> or they use a better system like the odroid coming tomorrow
Sep 08 20:36:06 <rneese> 2 gig of ram quad core
Sep 08 20:36:13 <rneese> should compile in no time
Sep 08 20:36:31 <rneese> but we are tring to make native compiled pkg
Sep 08 20:36:41 <rneese> so we can find any issues
Sep 08 20:36:44 <koen> quad core odroid is still an order of magnitude slower
Sep 08 20:36:46 <rneese> in the src and fix it
Sep 08 20:36:47 <koen> prolly 2
Sep 08 20:36:55 <koen> can it compile QT in 10 minutes
Sep 08 20:36:56 <koen> ?
Sep 08 20:37:17 <koen> since odroid lacks sata it will likely take 2 or 3 days
Sep 08 20:37:22 <rneese> I wont know till I get the odroid x2
Sep 08 20:37:27 <rneese> and test it
Sep 08 20:37:33 <koen> 3 days vs 10 minutes
Sep 08 20:38:41 <rneese> no if it take 1h hrs on a 1 ghz with 512 it should more then cut down in the time to run the build
Sep 08 20:38:51 <rneese> but we also use cowbuilder
Sep 08 20:39:03 <rneese> to keep the packages saine
Sep 08 20:39:18 <rneese> thast another reason for the slow build
Sep 08 20:39:28 <koen> qt4 doesn't build in an hour on the bone
Sep 08 20:39:31 <koen> I can tell you that :)
Sep 08 20:39:32 <rneese> I think if I built out side of cowbuilder it would be faster
Sep 08 20:41:03 <rneese> but we are just building and testing to make shure it compiles native right now
Sep 08 20:41:24 <rneese> to make shure the code has the right lib calls and headers
Sep 08 20:41:44 <rneese> thats why you buy devices like this
Sep 08 20:42:18 <rneese> only bad this is the swap we had to pput on a 1 gig sd and swap it on
Sep 08 20:42:32 <rneese> but we did get the bbb to boot of a usb drive
Sep 08 21:56:40 <bpetersen> I have a BeagleBone Black and I did "opkg update" just to realize that I should not have done that. Now my BeagleBone Black will not fully boot. The BeagleBone Black will turn on, 3 LEDs will remain constantly lit, and it seems to freeze
Sep 08 21:56:44 <bpetersen> How do I fix this?
Sep 08 21:57:05 <vvu|Log> need to reflash, now the eMMC is full as i know
Sep 08 21:59:32 <mattwj2002> hi uys
Sep 08 21:59:38 <mattwj2002> hi guys I mean
Sep 08 21:59:41 <mattwj2002> is anyone here?
Sep 08 22:00:32 <malcom2073> Hi
Sep 08 22:00:48 <mattwj2002> howdy malcom2073
Sep 08 22:00:52 <bpetersen> Hey
Sep 08 22:00:57 <mattwj2002> hey bpetersen
Sep 08 22:01:08 <mattwj2002> I currently own a rpi
Sep 08 22:01:22 <mattwj2002> I want something similar or the same for xbmc
Sep 08 22:01:32 <mattwj2002> is the beaglebone black a good choice?
Sep 08 22:01:44 <malcom2073> the BBB is not a media machine
Sep 08 22:01:54 <malcom2073> iirc, it can't do 1080
Sep 08 22:01:56 <malcom2073> only 720
Sep 08 22:02:00 <mattwj2002> :(
Sep 08 22:02:06 <mattwj2002> seriously?
Sep 08 22:02:18 <malcom2073> That's not its target market :)
Sep 08 22:02:35 <bpetersen> Did they fix the opkg update/opkg upgrade problem with BBB?
Sep 08 22:02:50 <mattwj2002> malcom2073: it looks good because it can run android and what not as well
Sep 08 22:03:20 <malcom2073> Don't know heh, I don't touch android whatsoever
Sep 08 22:03:35 <mattwj2002> I love android
Sep 08 22:03:37 <malcom2073> BBB is a very awesome device, but a htpc it is not
Sep 08 22:03:42 <malcom2073> I can't stand it, but to each their own.
Sep 08 22:03:47 <mattwj2002> I wish it could have my babies
Sep 08 22:03:48 <mattwj2002> :P
Sep 08 22:03:52 <mattwj2002> indeed
Sep 08 22:04:03 <malcom2073> What are you looking for?
Sep 08 22:04:10 <malcom2073> A tiny low power HTPC to run android?
Sep 08 22:04:12 <mattwj2002> the 1080p thing is a big bummer
Sep 08 22:04:15 <mattwj2002> no
Sep 08 22:04:16 <malcom2073> but faster than rpi?
Sep 08 22:04:42 <mattwj2002> a xbmc frontend for my tv
Sep 08 22:04:56 <mattwj2002> android is cool for play though :)
Sep 08 22:05:27 <malcom2073> Have you thought about http://www.boxtoptheater.com/products/the-little-black-box ?
Sep 08 22:06:11 <mattwj2002> nice malcom2073
Sep 08 22:06:16 <malcom2073> pricey though
Sep 08 22:06:23 <malcom2073> From what I hear, you get what you pay for though
Sep 08 22:06:52 <mattwj2002> my rpi is doing a fine job right now.....
Sep 08 22:07:02 <malcom2073> What's wrong with it?
Sep 08 22:07:04 <mattwj2002> but I was wondering what other options were
Sep 08 22:07:17 <mattwj2002> nothing is wrong with it
Sep 08 22:07:17 <malcom2073> can't resist the urge to tinker? :)
Sep 08 22:07:44 <mattwj2002> no I want to put the rpi in my bedroom and another device in the living room
Sep 08 22:07:47 <mattwj2002> I love to tinker!
Sep 08 22:07:48 <mattwj2002> :D
Sep 08 22:08:01 <malcom2073> Haha
Sep 08 22:08:07 <mattwj2002> malcom2073: see I have a mythtv backend
Sep 08 22:08:22 <mattwj2002> I can watch live tv through xbmc frontends
Sep 08 22:08:29 <mattwj2002> and all my recordings
