Oct 12 03:57:34 <Guest82992> hi
Oct 12 03:57:41 <Guest82992> is this a public chat room?
Oct 12 03:58:46 <Guest82992> anybody using free RTOS for beaglebone black?
Oct 12 03:59:10 <Guest82992> which one is the best available??
Oct 12 05:07:17 <_av500_> yes, its public
Oct 12 05:08:14 <_av500_> http://interactive.freertos.org/entries/20168818-freertos-port-for-ti-beagleboard-omap3530
Oct 12 05:08:31 <_av500_> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/VNsud4W1WEc
Oct 12 05:30:02 <dm8tbr> av500: missed him by 4 min ;)
Oct 12 05:33:07 <_av500_> it was only for the logs
Oct 12 05:34:07 <dm8tbr> :)
Oct 12 05:42:43 <mrpackethead> hello i am the duty troll
Oct 12 05:43:00 * dm8tbr clocks out and leaves the field to mrpackethead ;)
Oct 12 05:43:19 <mrpackethead> please ask your questions
Oct 12 05:44:00 <mrpackethead> how come i got saturday night.
Oct 12 05:50:51 <emeb_mac> because you showed up
Oct 12 05:51:05 <emeb_mac> king by default
Oct 12 06:02:44 <kjhg> how can i send soma data (eg :-  a mp3 file ) via Audio port (MCASP 0 ) 0f BBB  ?
Oct 12 06:28:51 <dm8tbr> kjhg: the BBB does HDMI audio, there is an ALSA device AFAIU, just use that
Oct 12 06:48:14 <kjhg> <dm8tbr> thanks verymuch for replying..I am disabling Hdmi audio pins and i am connecting it to some audio codec.I want it in I2S mode.So which driver i have to use?
Oct 12 06:49:35 <kjhg> Can i use Alsa driver for both reading and writing via MCASP PiNS?
Oct 12 06:49:53 <kjhg> or should i write another driver?
Oct 12 06:52:25 <dm8tbr> kjhg: you might want to read the whole thread linked from here: http://boardzoo.com/index.php/beaglebone/bone-audio.html
Oct 12 06:53:26 <dm8tbr> at the end of it it becomes clear that HDMI and an audio cape _can_ work together, but need some work in a specific area. if you don't need hdmi, just disable it.
Oct 12 10:42:15 <utopia> how can i patch the dtc with how to patch "https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1934471/"
Oct 12 11:07:13 <utopia> how can i build dtc
Oct 12 11:17:11 <utopia> hello wverybody
Oct 12 11:57:56 <GeneralStupid> Hi i own a beagleboard C3 and i need a working uboot.bin which is able to work with uEnv.txt. How do i get this?
Oct 12 11:57:59 <N2TOH> does any of this run on a BBB DG8SAQ/PE0FKO/SoftRock control software?
Oct 12 11:59:05 <N2TOH> do you just need the file, or a way to write it to the media?
Oct 12 12:00:37 <dm8tbr> GeneralStupid: I'd just build a random image using narcissus and use the files from that
Oct 12 12:03:44 <GeneralStupid> dm8tbr: will this be hard float?
Oct 12 12:04:02 <dm8tbr> ROFLCOPTER
Oct 12 12:04:15 <dm8tbr> it can be anyfloat
Oct 12 12:04:17 <utopia> how can i build dtc
Oct 12 12:04:19 <N2TOH> eh?
Oct 12 12:04:45 <GeneralStupid> dm8tbr: this are binaries, how are they compiled? hf or sf?
Oct 12 12:05:35 <dm8tbr> GeneralStupid: if you didn't get my hint: it does not matter
Oct 12 12:07:10 <GeneralStupid> dm8tbr: i read about 40% performance win
Oct 12 12:07:50 <dm8tbr> during 0.1s, that would be like 0.04s faster! OMG stop the presses! shredder the boards! Make new binaries!
Oct 12 12:08:11 <dm8tbr> hint: neither the number, nor the statement are correct
Oct 12 12:09:02 <dm8tbr> neither MLO, nor U-Boot, nor Kernel care about being compiled soft-float or hard-float
Oct 12 12:20:45 <GeneralStupid> dm8tbr: but the kernel had to be compiled with HF if i want to use it (i thought so)
Oct 12 12:20:52 <dm8tbr> no
Oct 12 12:21:23 <dm8tbr> hf vs sf ONLY matters for function calls between libraries in userspace
Oct 12 12:21:41 <dm8tbr> neither kernel nor uboot nor mlo give a flying fart
Oct 12 12:23:18 <GeneralStupid> ok i'll notice that
Oct 12 12:23:40 <GeneralStupid> what about flashing an u-boot.img instead of an u-boot.bin Do i have to convert that?
Oct 12 12:27:34 <mru> what's funny about the supposed benefits of using the hardfloat abi is that many of the libm functions move the float parameters to integer registers the first thing they do
Oct 12 12:28:33 <mru> so for those calls, there is no difference whatsoever
Oct 12 12:28:50 <dm8tbr> how do you dare confuse us with facts mru!
Oct 12 12:41:58 <GeneralStupid> ok. now i have an working u.boot from 2013, which is able to read uEnv.txt but it didnt boot
Oct 12 12:50:49 <GeneralStupid> if i use the settings from the uenv by hand, it works
Oct 12 13:26:05 <Tenkawa> anyone got a beaglebone black handy running that can check something for me?
Oct 12 13:26:34 <mru> what do you need to know?
Oct 12 13:26:50 <Tenkawa> turn your cpu on performance/max and grep the bogomips out of /proc/cpuinfo for me. thanks
Oct 12 13:26:59 <mru> why does that matter?
Oct 12 13:27:08 <mru> it's called bogo for a reason
Oct 12 13:27:28 <Tenkawa> mru: yes however it does have usable stagea
Oct 12 13:27:31 <Tenkawa> er stages
Oct 12 13:27:36 <mru> no it doesn't
Oct 12 13:27:44 <mru> what do you actually want to know?
Oct 12 13:28:09 <Tenkawa> i'm trying to fix a freq problem in the 3.12 kernel source
Oct 12 13:28:43 <mru> if you want to know the cpu clock, ask cpufreq
Oct 12 13:28:47 <Tenkawa> with the freq and governors being completely broke I'm having to resort to more "creative" methods
Oct 12 13:28:57 <mru> in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq or so
Oct 12 13:29:16 <Tenkawa> mru: cpufreq is completely nonfunctional in bb 3.12 tree
Oct 12 13:29:26 <mru> so measure it manually
Oct 12 13:29:38 <mru> bogomips is not a reliable number
Oct 12 13:30:10 <Tenkawa> regardless... if anyone can give me the number it would be appreciated
Oct 12 13:30:27 <mru> it won't do you any good
Oct 12 13:31:48 <Tenkawa> thus my "regardless"
Oct 12 13:31:51 <dm8tbr> IIRC bogomips are calculated exactly once on boot up and on current ARM systems the results have insane scatter
Oct 12 13:32:03 <dm8tbr> due to frequency scaling etc
Oct 12 13:32:09 <dm8tbr> well and 'bogo'
Oct 12 13:32:22 <mru> the value also depends on the compiler used
Oct 12 13:32:25 <mru> and compiler flags
Oct 12 13:32:28 <mru> and kernel version
Oct 12 13:32:30 <mru> and phase of moon
Oct 12 13:32:33 <Tenkawa> true
Oct 12 13:32:37 <Tenkawa> nevermind then
Oct 12 13:33:07 <dm8tbr> fixing cpufreq would probably make much more sense
Oct 12 13:33:31 <dm8tbr> or looking at the right registers in /dev/mem or whatever
Oct 12 13:33:43 <dm8tbr> s/registers/address
Oct 12 13:33:49 <Tenkawa> dm8tbr: honestly i compile it out of my kernels... i just want to figure out why this thing boots at the slowest speed
Oct 12 13:33:58 <Tenkawa> adjusting the dtb has helped "some"
Oct 12 13:34:09 <mru> or measure it with a good timing loop
Oct 12 13:34:24 <Tenkawa> but the voltage numbers still arent aligning
Oct 12 13:34:46 <mru> it's easy enough to write a delay loop in asm and calibrate it once
Oct 12 13:34:53 <Tenkawa> not enough to let it run full speed  (did in 3.8 just fine)
Oct 12 13:35:19 <Tenkawa> i'd hard set the c
Oct 12 13:35:41 <Tenkawa> i'd hard set the clk if i could remember which src file set it up for this board
Oct 12 13:35:53 <Tenkawa> the i.mx6 was easy to find
Oct 12 13:53:42 <vvu|Log> CareBear\: ping
Oct 12 14:18:50 <vvu|Log> is there anybody with some ideas how codeless kexts work on OSX...i need to block the kernel to grab my BBB when i connect it to my Apple computer.
Oct 12 14:50:12 <mariner> so... what sd cards do people find works well for booting? i'm going to go out and get new ones, but i'm rather short on available time
Oct 12 14:51:35 <Hola> Hi
Oct 12 14:51:48 <mariner> heya
Oct 12 14:52:25 <Hola> I cant write in the terminal when using serial port comunication with an ubuntu vm
Oct 12 14:54:03 <Hola> some one know what i can do in order to be able to type when using a virtual machine with the beagle
Oct 12 14:55:29 <mru> mariner: just for booting anything should work
Oct 12 14:55:47 <Hola> what?
Oct 12 14:56:10 <Hola> i mean i type but nothing appears in the terminal
Oct 12 14:56:26 <mru> for heavier use, sandisk usually works well
Oct 12 14:56:34 <Hola> only the angstron logo
Oct 12 14:56:43 <mariner> mru.... i've been trying to boot for the past few days ona sandisk with no luck
Oct 12 14:56:58 <Hola> i mean but it okay
Oct 12 14:56:58 <mru> I doubt the card is to blame
Oct 12 14:57:15 <mariner> someone last night suggested picking up a new card
Oct 12 14:57:16 <Hola> you mean the card is the problem?
Oct 12 14:57:16 <mariner> hrm
Oct 12 14:57:57 <mariner> i've tried a few images, but when i try to boot it, the lights don't turn on
Oct 12 14:58:08 <mariner> when i'm holding the u-boot button
Oct 12 14:58:13 <mru> mariner: any console output?
Oct 12 14:58:34 <Hola> yes
Oct 12 14:58:41 <Hola> all what it must
Oct 12 14:58:52 <Hola> the angstron logo
Oct 12 14:59:02 <Hola> the distribution info
Oct 12 14:59:10 <Hola> but them it ask me for
Oct 12 14:59:22 <Hola> beagleboard login:
Oct 12 14:59:28 <Hola> but i can type
Oct 12 14:59:43 <mariner> mru, i don't have the serial cord. If i try to boot it connected via hdmi nothing comes up, and if i try to boot it conected to my computer, it fails to make a connection if i'm holding the u-boot button
Oct 12 14:59:55 <mru> get a serial cable
Oct 12 15:00:13 <Hola> im using serial to usb
Oct 12 15:01:21 <mariner> alright
Oct 12 15:01:27 <Hola> someone here had tha problem and solve it ?
Oct 12 15:02:08 <mariner> and so, being that i'm a dumb guy... i plug that into my computer, and when i try t boot how do i see whats happening?
Oct 12 15:02:35 <mariner> i mean, i'm not sure how i actively connect to it before it's turned on?
Oct 12 15:03:27 <Hola> you should use minicom
Oct 12 15:03:40 <mru> minicom can be iffy
Oct 12 15:03:41 <Hola> first connect the serial or serial to usb cable
Oct 12 15:03:50 <Hola> configure the minicom and after
Oct 12 15:04:12 <Hola> when all is ready plug the power with the sd plugged in the beagle
Oct 12 15:04:21 <Hola> i did that
Oct 12 15:04:43 <Hola> all seems to be okay but the beagle don let me type the user name or nothing
Oct 12 15:05:06 <mru> disable flow control
Oct 12 15:08:16 <Hola> mru so using the same card you suggest me to disable
Oct 12 15:08:23 <Hola> the flowchart?
Oct 12 15:08:29 <Hola> im going to test it
Oct 12 15:11:21 <Hola> mru youre a master
Oct 12 15:11:33 <Hola> you got the right answer
Oct 12 15:12:15 <Hola> do you also know how to install a c++ compiler in the beagleboard xm rev c
Oct 12 15:12:41 <mru> depends on what system you're running
Oct 12 15:12:48 <Hola> angstrom
Oct 12 15:13:07 <mru> opkg install something
Oct 12 15:13:11 <mru> I don't remember the package name
Oct 12 15:13:36 <Hola> how can i mux the pins
Oct 12 15:13:47 <Hola> i find lots of information in the internet
Oct 12 15:14:00 <Hola> but all assume i know something before
Oct 12 15:14:12 <Hola> i know how to enable some gpio as input
Oct 12 15:14:26 <GeneralStupid> Hi, my beagleboard C3 is now working
Oct 12 15:14:30 <Hola> but the have no other function for example gpio159
Oct 12 15:14:36 <GeneralStupid> But i only see 90Mb of RAM into Debian...
Oct 12 15:21:47 <hola> some one knows some book or page were i can learn about pin muxing in the beagle board from ceros
Oct 12 15:31:54 <Stoppers> @hola Page 96 of the BB SRM seems to say you have to use mode 4 on McBSP1_DR to connect up gpio_159
Oct 12 15:32:28 <Stoppers> I'm wrestling with the pinmux stuff myself at the moment.
Oct 12 15:34:08 <hola> but why yourself
Oct 12 15:34:22 <hola> here there are lots of people that should know
Oct 12 15:34:42 <hola> someone of them can helo us with the pin muxing issue
Oct 12 15:35:23 <Stoppers> I'm reading the fm since I got pointed in that direction.
Oct 12 15:36:40 <Stoppers> If you're in linux, maybe this will help: http://www.elinux.org/BeagleBoardPinMux
Oct 12 15:37:41 <Stoppers> the bit with cd /sys/class/gpio/ ; echo 168 > export ; cd gpio168 ; echo out > direction ; echo 1 > value ; echo 0 > value
Oct 12 15:40:26 <hola> yeah that is all what we know
Oct 12 15:41:30 <hola> but that only works if the bit have no other functio
Oct 12 15:42:14 <hola> what about using gpios if they have for example pwm function
Oct 12 15:42:24 <hola> or what about using pwm in some gpio
Oct 12 15:42:35 <hola> instead of a simply gpio
Oct 12 15:55:45 <hola> how to use pwm in the beagleboard xm
Oct 12 17:03:35 <ZiNC> hola
Oct 12 20:56:05 <mfabel> does this board have and ADC pins?
Oct 12 20:56:33 <mru> this?
Oct 12 20:56:41 <mfabel> I am trying to find a Linux board for audio processing, but the main page is talking more about video connectors and memory and such
Oct 12 20:56:50 <mfabel> BeagleBoard
Oct 12 20:56:55 <mru> which one?
Oct 12 20:57:29 <mfabel> mru: There is only a BeagleBoardBlack on the homepage; are their others?
Oct 12 20:57:37 <N2TOH> if I'm not mistaken the Beagle board Black has ADC inputs that are limited to aroun 1.8 volts
Oct 12 20:58:15 <mru> there are 3 other boards in the beagle family
Oct 12 20:58:27 <N2TOH> so with a DC offset your limited to about a 0.9 volt peak to peak signal
Oct 12 20:58:42 <mfabel> mru: ah. I see them now...
Oct 12 20:59:26 <N2TOH> yet I have no idea what the other specs are for the ADC
Oct 12 20:59:49 <mfabel> N2TOH: I don't really know much hardware, but you *should* be able to dampen the amplitude of a signal without changing it's shape, right?
Oct 12 21:00:13 <N2TOH> yes it's called an attenuator
Oct 12 21:01:35 <N2TOH> a simple resistor divider can reduce the levels the a safe level, you can also go a step further and include Zenor diode clamping as well
Oct 12 21:02:31 <emeb_mac> mfabel: neither of the Beaglebone boards have analog inputs that are suitable for high-quality audio
Oct 12 21:02:36 <mfabel> N2TOH: Thanks; that looks to be what I am looking for
Oct 12 21:03:00 <emeb_mac> the original Beagleboard and Beagleboard XM had true stereo audio inputs.
Oct 12 21:03:13 <mru> you can also attach a usb audio device
Oct 12 21:03:21 <emeb_mac> yes - that.
Oct 12 21:03:53 <N2TOH> mfabel: as emeb_mac has stated the BBB has no dedicated audio ports and a USB connected sound device might be your best option unless you have a specific need
Oct 12 21:03:58 <mru> the classic and xm audio inputs hardly qualify as high-quality either
Oct 12 21:04:11 <emeb_mac> it's possible to use the 1.8V analog inputs to capture audio, but you'll have to write your own software to do so - the standard Linux audio infrastructure doesn't know about those inputs.
Oct 12 21:04:15 <mru> there's also the audio cape option
Oct 12 21:05:09 <mfabel> hmm...
Oct 12 21:05:42 <mfabel> Does anyone know of a board designed with audio/signal processing in mind?
Oct 12 21:06:17 <emeb_mac> that's a fairly broad question.
Oct 12 21:06:38 <mrpackethead> emeb_mac: whats wrong with the audio cape?
Oct 12 21:06:41 <mfabel> fair enough
Oct 12 21:06:44 <emeb_mac> what do you mean by audio/signal processing - what OS (or bare metal?) - what kind of signal processing. etc
Oct 12 21:06:51 <mrpackethead> i've had a pretty good run with it, other than its expensive.
Oct 12 21:06:55 <emeb_mac> mrpackethead: nothing wrong with it
Oct 12 21:06:57 <mrpackethead> but no complaints about quality.
Oct 12 21:07:08 <emeb_mac> didn't say there was. :)
Oct 12 21:07:13 <emeb_mac> but it's not std equipment.
Oct 12 21:07:55 <mrpackethead> sorry, i mis-understood what you said.
Oct 12 21:09:35 <mfabel> emeb_mac: RIght now I was hoping to get some form of Linux running (debian? arch?). The idea is to get input from microphones and then try to do some maths to determine where individual sounds are coming from
Oct 12 21:10:18 <mfabel> Real time is not required, although it would be nice to be able to move that direction with the same board later
Oct 12 21:11:02 <mfabel> rmpackethead: where is this audop cape? I am only finding this: http://beagleboard.org/CapeContest/entries/Video+Output+%28VGA%29+%26+Stereo+Audio+IO+Cape+with+possible+hand+assembly/
Oct 12 21:11:17 <mfabel> rmpackethead: and that doesn't look like an actual product...
Oct 12 21:11:52 <mrpackethead> http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=BeagleBone_Audio
Oct 12 21:12:15 <mrpackethead> you can order those from any number of places.
Oct 12 21:13:31 <mfabel> mrpackethead: thanks; reading now
Oct 12 21:34:36 <topsta> Does anyone know if there is an easy way to search the beagle IRC logs?
Oct 12 21:35:04 <mru> google?
Oct 12 21:36:54 <N2TOH> the logs are only search able if they are first logged
Oct 12 21:37:55 <mfabel> topsta: lurk and log the channel yourself ;-)
Oct 12 21:46:33 <topsta> the logs are here going back to 2007:  http://beagleboard.org/static/irclog/   and also here for 2013 nicely formatted: http://mer.bfst.de/logs/%23beagle/index.html
Oct 12 22:01:16 <N2TOH> WTH? http://pastebin.com/5FRQVrnv
Oct 12 22:02:40 <emeb_mac> N2TOH: ka6sox tells me that you got RTL-SDR dongle + graphic FFT working on BBB?
Oct 12 22:02:56 <N2TOH> not yet
Oct 12 22:03:10 <emeb_mac> :(
Oct 12 22:03:16 <emeb_mac> what's the trouble?
Oct 12 22:03:22 <N2TOH> I'm still pulling my hair out trying to install ViewRF
Oct 12 22:03:52 <N2TOH> I was polightly told to use bash, I'm currently working on getting that to work
Oct 12 22:04:02 <emeb_mac> ught
Oct 12 22:04:05 <emeb_mac> -t
Oct 12 22:04:24 <N2TOH> eh? literal of joking?
Oct 12 22:04:56 <emeb_mac> hard to imagine how bash helps
Oct 12 22:05:36 <N2TOH> seems the sh shell has some issues, where bash doesn't
Oct 12 22:05:56 <emeb_mac> oh.
Oct 12 22:05:57 <N2TOH> link to follow
Oct 12 22:06:06 * emeb_mac thought bash was the default
Oct 12 22:06:06 <N2TOH> http://robotics.ong.id.au/2013/08/25/viewrf-rtl-sdr-spectrum-analyzer-for-bbb-software/
Oct 12 22:06:19 <N2TOH> seems in angstrom it is not
Oct 12 22:06:49 <N2TOH> on step 8 I can manage to get to the make step before I start to get errors
Oct 12 22:07:32 <emeb_mac> what errors?
Oct 12 22:07:53 <N2TOH> http://pastebin.com/wpD1GtUj
Oct 12 22:08:18 <mru> bash is evil
Oct 12 22:08:51 * N2TOH don't care I just want to get this software installed so I can use View RF
Oct 12 22:12:26 <emeb_mac> looks like there's a bug in the Makefile
Oct 12 22:12:36 <emeb_mac> somehow thinks that "-c" is a command
Oct 12 22:13:02 <emeb_mac> also - exact steps fail
Oct 12 22:13:03 <mru> or the shell is really, really broken
Oct 12 22:13:26 <emeb_mac> so if bash is evil and sh is broken, what to use?
Oct 12 22:13:44 <mru> which sh?
Oct 12 22:13:50 <mru> there are plenty of working ones
Oct 12 22:14:16 <emeb_mac> looks like whatever the default /bin/sh in Angstrom is.
Oct 12 22:21:16 <seckford> emeb_mac: I'm pretty sure it's BusyBox
Oct 12 22:22:26 <emeb_mac> blame Bruce Perens!
Oct 12 22:22:42 <N2TOH> from what I gather Angstrom uses BASH
Oct 12 22:24:01 <seckford> hmm, I've seen BusyBox somewhere around the BBB, and it wasn't Debian.  Maybe Angstrom uses Dash???
Oct 12 22:24:41 <seckford> emeb_mac: check the tabs in the Makefile - that's what usually freaks make out.
Oct 12 22:36:13 <woglinde> angstrom uses busybox
Oct 12 22:37:30 <woglinde> lol
Oct 12 22:37:35 <woglinde> its not sh fault
Oct 12 22:37:43 <woglinde> its user fault
Oct 12 22:37:49 <woglinde> some program is missing
Oct 12 22:38:32 <woglinde> could be g++
Oct 12 22:39:05 * N2TOH hangs head in shame, ok how to I check what I "might" be missing
Oct 12 22:39:36 <woglinde> compiling qwt_abstract_scale_draw.cpp
Oct 12 22:39:41 <woglinde> because qt is c++
Oct 12 22:39:49 <woglinde> your are missing a c++ compiler
Oct 12 22:39:52 <woglinde> which is g++
Oct 12 22:40:00 <woglinde> compilg on the board is stupid anyway
Oct 12 22:40:26 <woglinde> compiling even
Oct 12 22:40:36 <seckford> n2toh: "which g++" should solve that question.  I'd be suprised if you had gcc and not g++
Oct 12 22:41:01 <woglinde> seckford he has neither of them
Oct 12 22:41:27 <N2TOH> next question is if I am indeed missing "it" what is the most viable option to pick?
Oct 12 22:41:28 <ka6sox> N2TOH, do you have a Linux Desktop?
Oct 12 22:41:33 <seckford> woglinde: still suprising - the default Angstrom certainly has gcc
Oct 12 22:41:54 <N2TOH> ka6sox, no I am using the USB serial console
Oct 12 22:42:01 <ka6sox> but you *have* one right?
Oct 12 22:42:44 <N2TOH> a monitor? yes but currently I am using the console cause people kept asking for pastebin dumps...
Oct 12 22:43:09 <ka6sox> NO, I asked if you had a linux desktop.
Oct 12 22:43:30 <ka6sox> as in x86 style
Oct 12 22:43:47 <seckford> N2TOH: on the BBB the console is often more convenient, or so I find.  OTOH, make really needs a more-or-less current time setting - did you set the clock on startup?
Oct 12 23:22:52 <ZiNC> How can you find out a board's revision?
Oct 12 23:23:43 <mrpackethead> read it on the label.
Oct 12 23:23:58 <ZiNC> Where's that?
Oct 12 23:24:04 <ZiNC> (I don't physically have one.)
Oct 12 23:24:16 <mrpackethead> sticker on the ethernet jack
Oct 12 23:24:22 <ZiNC> Looking at this: http://circuitco.com/support/images/2/23/REV_A5A.jpg
Oct 12 23:24:32 <ZiNC> It says A5 for A5A.
Oct 12 23:24:44 <ZiNC> Is the last letter just shown on B+?
Oct 12 23:25:04 <mrpackethead> doe'nt really make much difference anyway
Oct 12 23:25:11 <mrpackethead> theres no hidden easter eggs for you
Oct 12 23:25:27 <ZiNC> Minor fixes.
Oct 12 23:26:09 <ZiNC> Wouldn't hurt to have if you get a new one.
Oct 12 23:26:47 <ZiNC> A6 seems to be just out.
Oct 12 23:50:50 <N2TOH> ka6sox, yes I have a Ubuntu desktop, brb phone
Oct 13 00:57:33 <zanarama> Is anyone familiar with the adafruit-bbio-python-io library?
Oct 13 00:57:59 <zanarama> I am trying to use it to port code for a touchscreen arduino to the beaglebone.
Oct 13 00:58:38 <zanarama> But I don't know an equivalent function for the analogRead()
Oct 13 01:29:53 <honestly> do beagleboards even have ADCs?
Oct 13 01:30:18 <emeb> yes
Oct 13 01:30:40 <emeb> err - beagleboard have audio codecs. beaglebones have ADCs.
Oct 13 01:31:12 <honestly> ...
Oct 13 01:32:07 <honestly> I mean analog-digital-converter...
Oct 13 01:38:30 <agmlego> Yes.
Oct 13 01:38:48 <agmlego> And an audio-input codec is an ADC. ;-P
Oct 13 01:39:19 <agmlego> But the bones do in fact have ADCs, rated for 1.8V and intended by TI to be four-wire resistive touchscreen controllers.
Oct 13 01:39:29 <agmlego> All in the SRM. ;-P
Oct 13 01:55:08 <Hola> Hi
Oct 13 01:55:40 <Hola> when i reset the beagle xm connected to an hdmi display
Oct 13 01:55:57 <Hola> i not able to turn it on again but disconnecting it
Oct 13 01:56:03 <Hola> why?
Oct 13 01:56:57 <Hola> when i was using my voltmeter to measure the normal voltaje in the reset pin in the expansion board
Oct 13 01:57:00 <Hola> it resets
