**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Nov 05 02:59:58 2013 Nov 05 03:52:59 Oh no, citric acid got on my headphones and ruined them. lol Nov 05 04:53:23 I need some help in doing cross compilation. My local kernel version is 3.8.0-31-generic and my BB kernel version is 3.8.13-bone20 #1 SMP .so when i try to insmod the module in BB im getting an error "Invalid module format" someone pls provide a solution Nov 05 04:54:25 put your local kernel onto the beagle Nov 05 04:56:59 I have an IC that produces audio signals in I2S format, and I want to get that data onto the BBB processor. It doesn't look like the BBB supports an I2S bus (or does it with HDMI?). Any recommendations for getting the I2S data on the processor (I2S over SPI, etc.)? Thanks. Nov 05 04:59:20 BBB does have an I2S bus. It's already used for the HDMI port on output, but the input may be free if you set up the pinmux corretly. Nov 05 05:00:31 ah okay i thought that might be the case. i'll look into it. thank you. Nov 05 05:50:19 hi Nov 05 05:51:20 i would like to know eagle board used for I/O - SDI12, RS485,RS232 sensor Nov 05 05:56:02 <`Ishq> Would anyone happen to know where Angstrom Linux stores it's tmp files when downloaded with opkg? Nov 05 06:00:54 @thurgood ... I tried to intall my local kernel in BB..but when i do uname -a in BB it says the earlier kernel version and not the newly installed local kernel version Nov 05 06:01:24 any solution for this pls.. Nov 05 06:01:29 did you put it in the /boot folder in the rootfs? Nov 05 06:01:41 `Ishq : /tmp/opkg-... Nov 05 06:03:12 there is no rootfs folder under /boot Nov 05 06:03:24 hehe Nov 05 06:04:22 Wat..? Nov 05 06:05:13 <`Ishq> Ah, thanks. Nov 05 06:05:36 <`Ishq> Biodragon: I looked there, but couldn't find any ipk files Nov 05 06:07:21 `Ishq: it may delete them when it's done updating (not sure). But if you interrupt the process they are in /tmp/opkg-xxxxx (where xxxxx is some random letters) Nov 05 06:07:42 `Ishq: unless you specified another tmp dir command line Nov 05 06:08:11 so when your board is running you have no /boot folder? Nov 05 06:09:11 i got the rootfs link file under the /dev/disk/by-label/ Nov 05 06:09:53 But its linked to rootfs -> ../../mmcblk0p2 Nov 05 06:10:15 and? Nov 05 06:10:24 mmcblk0p2 is a character block special file Nov 05 06:10:51 doesn't matter it's mounted to / Nov 05 06:11:31 cd /boot Nov 05 06:11:44 are you telling me that gives you an error on the board? Nov 05 06:12:56 no... there is no roofs folder under /boot.... But i got a rootfs link file under /dev/disk/by-label/ Nov 05 06:13:57 I didn't say a rootfs folder under /boot, just /boot (which is on the rootfs) Nov 05 06:14:46 rootfs is / not a subdirectory Nov 05 06:16:46 sorry a bit testy.. running through schematics trying to figure out why code for one PIC isn't running properly on another PIC in the same family Nov 05 06:17:17 So, using the USB port to both power and provide network access is a bit trippy on the BBB I've discovered. Nov 05 06:17:35 So I just switched to ethernet and using a 5V 2A adapter Nov 05 06:17:41 for now Nov 05 06:18:08 wise decision eggzeck Nov 05 06:18:18 ty :) Nov 05 06:18:47 bbb also runs at a lower clockrate when not using a barrel connector Nov 05 06:19:18 Ahh, very good to know. I haven't tested that, just got my BBB today. Nov 05 06:20:52 When connected via USB; if I had my device's power wire connected to any of the 3.3v or 5v headers it wouldn't even boot Nov 05 06:21:13 Once I switched to a barrel connector it doesn't do that Nov 05 06:22:10 yeah... USB barely provides enough to power the bbb hence the lower clockrate Nov 05 06:22:23 Yeah... Makes sense Nov 05 06:23:06 And using Cloud9 is also trippy... Doesn't work nicely Nov 05 06:23:10 I've found Nov 05 06:23:58 I'm definitely in love with this BBB... it's amazing Nov 05 06:24:24 <`Ishq> thurgood: Does it also have a lower clockrate if you're using a USB adapter, like for charging a cell phone? Nov 05 06:25:04 `Ishq: I'm sure the rule applies to that as well. Though you can test your clockrate to be sure. Nov 05 06:25:28 Try it, good to discover and share that information. Nov 05 06:25:33 <`Ishq> 300 MHz Nov 05 06:25:38 not sure about that... but it's designed for USB to be 5V, .5 amps Nov 05 06:26:03 `Ishq: now test it via USB on your computer/laptop Nov 05 06:26:22 I would like to know as well. I would but I'm in the middle of running my code Nov 05 06:26:32 which board are you running that's 300MHz? Nov 05 06:26:37 <`Ishq> bbb Nov 05 06:26:45 <`Ishq> I'll connect it to my laptop when my update finshes. Nov 05 06:26:53 300Mhz??? Nov 05 06:27:00 The clockrate? Nov 05 06:27:01 <`Ishq> Yeah, connected via adapter Nov 05 06:27:06 it should be closer to 1GHZ on a barrel connector Nov 05 06:27:12 wow that's SLOW dude Nov 05 06:27:15 <`Ishq> Oh, I don't own a barrel connector Nov 05 06:27:28 Yeah, it should be closer to 1GHz as thurgood stated Nov 05 06:27:44 I would get one Nov 05 06:27:49 <`Ishq> However Nov 05 06:27:53 You probably have one lying around `Ishq Nov 05 06:28:00 even on the USB plug it should be twice that Nov 05 06:28:01 You only need 5v 2A Nov 05 06:28:21 I found one, one of my old switches had a 5V 2A adapter Nov 05 06:28:28 So look around your house Nov 05 06:28:30 <`Ishq> I have half of one >.> Nov 05 06:28:34 heh Nov 05 06:28:43 <`Ishq> Also, college student. Don't have much to look through Nov 05 06:28:55 Yes you do, your roommates lol Nov 05 06:29:04 it doesn't need to be 2A, although that's probably a decent value Nov 05 06:29:11 I'm sure they have a switch somewhere :P Nov 05 06:29:21 <`Ishq> Heh. I'd rather not take one off the router though Nov 05 06:29:27 thurgood: Yeah, it's just the recommended value (from what I've read thorugh the manual) Nov 05 06:29:38 through* Nov 05 06:29:44 nice round value, and probably fairly easy to find Nov 05 06:30:16 Yeah. Which is why I found one so fast, was going to buy but then said "wait, I MUST have one of those" Nov 05 06:30:19 <`Ishq> btw, let me see if I can up the clockrate. It currently says the governor is "ondemand" Nov 05 06:30:19 And I did Nov 05 06:31:23 <`Ishq> I set it to 1000MHz Nov 05 06:32:00 <`Ishq> Nothing smells like it's smoking... Nov 05 06:33:26 <_av500_> set it to 10000MHz Nov 05 06:34:59 <`Ishq> cpufreq-info and cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq Nov 05 06:35:04 <`Ishq> both report 1000 MHz Nov 05 06:35:13 <`Ishq> so, I guess it's possible? Nov 05 06:35:17 <`Ishq> Lemme try laptop next Nov 05 06:35:28 <`Ishq> Maybe my update will finish faster now lo Nov 05 06:35:59 <`Ishq> It's pretty amazing though Nov 05 06:36:08 <`Ishq> My parent's have a Win98 comp from like Nov 05 06:36:11 <`Ishq> A decade ago Nov 05 06:36:15 <`Ishq> As their main computer Nov 05 06:36:18 <`Ishq> 667 MHz Nov 05 06:36:25 <`Ishq> And that thing is huge Nov 05 06:36:30 <`Ishq> And this bbb is faster Nov 05 06:36:35 <`Ishq> And it's tiny Nov 05 06:36:42 <`Ishq> i was expecting something closer to RPi size Nov 05 06:36:46 The BBB packs power in a small package. Nov 05 06:36:47 <`Ishq> But, I think the BBB is smaller Nov 05 06:36:58 <`Ishq> I was surprised Nov 05 06:38:36 <`Ishq> I think my ssh server died :( Nov 05 06:39:40 <`Ishq> Nope, can't ping either Nov 05 06:42:35 Ah no wonder Cloud9 IDE was trippy. There's a bug when running code in "Debug" mode... I disabled that and works great now Nov 05 06:42:50 but how will you possibly debug Nov 05 06:44:10 Well, right now I need to find another way... The Cloud9 IDE crashes my board and a number of other issues are present when running in Debug Mode Nov 05 06:44:34 <`Ishq> btw Nov 05 06:44:43 <`Ishq> Even connected to laptop Nov 05 06:44:45 console.log Nov 05 06:44:47 <`Ishq> CPU Freq is 1000 MHz Nov 05 06:45:07 `Ishq: the SSH server on the BBB? Nov 05 06:46:13 <`Ishq> It's back up Nov 05 06:46:15 <`Ishq> Yes Nov 05 06:46:43 mine seems to be running at 1GHz off of my 5v 1a ipod charger Nov 05 06:50:59 `Ishq: what does /proc/cpuinfo say? Nov 05 06:51:12 <`Ishq> It doesn't report any mhz Nov 05 06:51:30 what's it say for bogoMips? Nov 05 06:51:34 <`Ishq> 1000 Nov 05 06:51:43 <`Ishq> well Nov 05 06:51:47 <`Ishq> 997.99 or something Nov 05 06:51:58 .. close enough Nov 05 06:52:01 <`Ishq> But I rounded up Nov 05 06:53:02 <`Ishq> What would happen if I put in an "incorrect" mini-sd card and attempted to boot off of it? Nov 05 06:53:12 <`Ishq> 2nd LED would stay solid and no blinking? Nov 05 06:54:31 I had 0-2 light up and stay solid Nov 05 07:04:48 @thurgood..added the local kernel to BB /boot.. what shud i do next.. Nov 05 07:05:56 what OS are you using? Nov 05 07:06:10 ubuntu Nov 05 07:07:35 does it use grub? or uboot? not extremely familiar with ubuntu on arm Nov 05 07:07:47 it uses uboot.. Nov 05 07:08:33 did you name it uImage? Nov 05 07:10:42 i added two files "initrd.img-3.8.0-31-generic" and "vmlinuz-3.8.0-31-generic". From this "initrd.img-3.8.0-31-generic" i have to nmae as uImage? Nov 05 07:12:12 can you pastebin the listing of boot? Nov 05 07:13:49 System.map-3.8.13-bone20 , config-3.8.13-bone20 , dtbs , initrd.img-3.8.0-31-generic , uboot , vmlinuz-3.8.0-31-generic , vmlinuz-3.8.13-bone20 zImage" Nov 05 07:13:52 hi! Nov 05 07:19:35 <`Ishq> hmm Nov 05 07:19:57 <`Ishq> What does it mean when there are 4 LEDs on boot wwhen trying to boot with an SD card? Nov 05 07:20:06 <`Ishq> All solid Nov 05 07:21:30 uboot? Nov 05 07:21:35 <`Ishq> Yes Nov 05 07:21:37 you sure about that? Nov 05 07:21:54 sorry talking to test___ Nov 05 07:22:20 <`Ishq> oh Nov 05 07:24:46 grub is the default boot loader for Ubuntu Nov 05 07:25:04 just saying, so unless you changed something... Nov 05 07:26:52 test___: when you created the root did you get a .DEB package? Nov 05 07:29:20 err kernel, not root Nov 05 07:38:56 @eggzeck ..its uBoot Nov 05 07:44:04 Hello! Is there any way to wire up a switch to hard reset a BeagleBone Black via an external button? Nov 05 07:45:29 ellam poyi.. Nov 05 07:47:28 qrohlf: if i get the schematic right, you have to pull p9.10 to gnd Nov 05 07:48:08 I created one hard link to "vmlinuz-3.8.0-31-generic" with name "uImage".. and updated ".txt" file in "uboot" with "uImage" whereever "zImage" is referenced.. Nov 05 07:48:22 now my BB is not even booting up.. Nov 05 07:49:46 test___: how do you generate hard links on a FAT filesystem? Nov 05 07:49:47 I tried to connect the BB via screen.. then just a prompt "uboot#" is coming.. Nov 05 07:50:22 sorry its a soft link.. Nov 05 07:50:46 none of the LEDs turning on. Nov 05 07:51:08 did you do that on an SD card, or the emmc? Nov 05 07:53:01 SD card.. Nov 05 07:53:37 test___: how do you create a soft link on a FAT filesystem? Nov 05 07:53:43 ok, just move the SD card to a host PC and revert your modifications Nov 05 07:54:14 I think test___ means a symlink for /boot which is not a fat system Nov 05 07:54:18 when everything went wrong.. i removed my SD card and mounted it to host and reverted the updates.. that also is not working.. Nov 05 07:54:50 but /boot is ignored in favor of the FAT partition AFAIU Nov 05 07:55:44 I think newer uboot prefers /boot Nov 05 07:55:53 Isn't there already a reset switch on the BBB? Nov 05 07:56:03 on the host system you did n't make changes to /boot did you? Nov 05 07:56:04 MLO and u-boot are still loaded from fat partition Nov 05 07:56:17 Actually yes, it's right there near the power switch Nov 05 07:56:22 and use newe u-boots can than read ext234 filesystems from second partitions Nov 05 07:56:30 s/use/yes/ Nov 05 07:56:31 ah Nov 05 07:58:13 Content of the file which i edited Nov 05 07:58:15 optargs=fixrtc loadfdt=ext4load mmc ${mmcdev}:2 ${fdtaddr} /boot/dtbs/${fdtfile} loaduimage=mw.l 4804c134 fe1fffff; if uext4load mmc 0:2 ${loadaddr} /boot/zImage; then mw.l 4804c194 01200000; echo Booting from external microSD...; setenv mmcdev 0; else setenv mmcdev 1; if test $mmc0 = 1; then setenv mmcroot /dev/mmcblk1p2 rw; fi; ext4load mmc 1:2 ${loadaddr} /boot/zImage && mw.l 4804c194 00c00000; echo Booting from internal eMMC...; f Nov 05 07:58:27 meh... dd with default bs = sLOOWWWW Nov 05 07:58:38 thurgood yes Nov 05 07:59:35 uhm never saw u-boot mw.l command until now Nov 05 08:00:05 hm ah memory write Nov 05 08:00:50 but why are they needed? Nov 05 08:01:03 probably hardwiring a frequency Nov 05 08:01:20 hm no? Nov 05 08:01:32 they always comes after something loaded Nov 05 08:01:40 devicetree or kernel Nov 05 08:03:44 hm prppluage might know or jkridner Nov 05 08:05:29 did you restore the the original zImage file? Nov 05 08:05:37 or they so called hero rcn Nov 05 08:05:43 *g* Nov 05 08:08:25 bringing beagle to the masses is something of a mixed bag I suppose Nov 05 08:08:43 not really. Nov 05 08:09:38 yeah... many new users if not most are not interested in embedded linux Nov 05 08:10:18 Confusing, then they shouldn't even purchase the Beagle Nov 05 08:10:24 for better or worse it's a different paradigm Nov 05 08:24:16 <`Ishq> I know arch takes a few times to get installed correctly, but DAMN. I've tried 5 times. Nov 05 08:33:22 thats one mess of a conditional uEnv.txt file . . . Nov 05 08:33:37 4804c134 is the GPIO1 output enable and 4804c194 is the GPIO_SETDATAOUT Nov 05 08:33:42 not sure *why* we would need conditionals Nov 05 08:34:54 are yo ubooting via SPI ? Nov 05 08:37:12 nope conditional sd or emmc Nov 05 08:37:20 * m_billybob shrugs Nov 05 08:37:37 it looks like it's turrning on the leds to show where it's booting from (*the user leds are on gpio1) Nov 05 08:37:54 m_billybob they comes from ubuntu install on armhf or so Nov 05 08:38:21 i knew i seeen that before Nov 05 08:38:31 i saw that or somethign near to that on armhf Nov 05 08:38:45 moin woglinde Nov 05 08:39:20 thing is, i dont personally see the need for conditionals in uEnv.txt, jus twrite a different one for each use, not like its hard Nov 05 08:39:29 anyhow . . .morning KoTH Nov 05 08:40:20 the thing is that on the BBB the S2 Button is supposed to determine where to boot from. Nov 05 08:40:54 isnt that already hard coded into uboot ? Nov 05 08:41:17 but effectively speaking it only determins where u-boot is loaded from and it's u-boot (even the internal one) that will start and look around on the sd-card for a u-env and such Nov 05 08:42:13 greeting m_billybob Nov 05 08:42:42 it's all very "soft" and flexible Nov 05 08:42:44 keesj: well, maybe you are using the wrong definition of "where to boot from" Nov 05 08:42:48 and confusing Nov 05 08:43:05 keesj: it's the same behaviour on the pc Nov 05 08:43:37 keesj: if you tell your pc to boot from a usb stick, it loads from there a boot loader. the bootloader can load the OS from anywhere, even the harddisk Nov 05 08:43:49 keesj: all very soft and flexible ;) Nov 05 08:43:51 idk i have 4-5 diffferent uEnv.txt.* files on my bbb's sd card, renamed appropriately Nov 05 08:44:19 sd boot netboot, USB boot and a couple of others i toy aroudn with Nov 05 08:44:36 ok but one can't really expect to boot from the internal hard-disk but read the configuration from the cd-crom and that is what is happening Nov 05 08:44:49 the SRM talks about "BOOT switch can be used to force a boot from the SD card. Nov 05 08:44:50 " Nov 05 08:45:41 technicaly i think you probably could boot from a cdrom lol Nov 05 08:45:48 id have to give it a shot Nov 05 08:46:18 I know USB hard drive boot is a go Nov 05 08:48:39 hi Nov 05 08:49:12 keesj: actually, you can. quite easily with grub too Nov 05 08:49:12 was there a bug with eth0 not coming up after reconfiguring it ? Nov 05 08:49:12 iam seeing strange issue here Nov 05 08:49:13 hi koth Nov 05 08:49:17 hi, and (sorry) goodbye. its nearl y2am here Nov 05 08:50:16 which kernel rob, quick bed time is looming Nov 05 08:50:39 i run 3.8.11 Nov 05 08:50:49 angstrom ? Nov 05 08:50:52 with the set of patches well known Nov 05 08:51:00 rolled my poky on my own Nov 05 08:51:04 Hi, is there someone that uses tiwi5 (add-on board) on his beaglebone? Nov 05 08:51:22 rob hotplug on eth0 does not work in 3.8.11 afaik Nov 05 08:51:28 but it doesnt feel user space related Nov 05 08:51:29 so a reboot would be in order Nov 05 08:51:41 do you have a reference of htat somewhere Nov 05 08:51:52 its all over the forums from 2-3 months ago Nov 05 08:52:05 Nothing is easy with grub(2) Nov 05 08:52:25 m_billybob: sleep well Nov 05 08:52:37 have a great JIHAD KotH ;) Nov 05 08:52:45 i will :) Nov 05 08:52:47 ( afternoon, day wichever you like ) Nov 05 08:54:01 damn thats really odd Nov 05 08:57:16 want to have some fun rob ? Unplug the ethernet cable from the port and then plug it back in while the bbb is runing. watch as within one minute the BBB seg faults. Anyhow now I am off to bed have a good one all Nov 05 08:57:32 pls dont tell me that Nov 05 08:58:01 is there any soliution ??? Nov 05 08:58:09 or at least hack or something Nov 05 08:58:19 m_billybob, which kernel version is that? Nov 05 08:58:26 and what's the backtrace Nov 05 08:58:40 3.8.11 Nov 05 08:59:20 default install? Nov 05 08:59:30 wheezy Nov 05 08:59:32 no segfault here Nov 05 08:59:39 link comes back Nov 05 08:59:44 and pings at least Nov 05 08:59:50 pastebin plz Nov 05 09:00:03 some 'green' switches confuse the hell out of the phy Nov 05 09:00:15 tomorrow ? Nov 05 09:00:21 its way passed my bedtime Nov 05 09:00:29 well ok later today . . Nov 05 09:00:57 so if if the link unplug replug works .. then a reconfiguring of it should be doable .. Nov 05 09:01:15 panto, do you know more about the hotplug ethernet issue ? Nov 05 09:01:42 I think it's switch related Nov 05 09:02:03 hmm about the speed stuff ? Nov 05 09:02:30 Hi, is there someone that uses tiwi5 (add-on board) on his beaglebone? Nov 05 09:03:52 panto: does it help to paint the switches 'red' ? Nov 05 09:04:38 max----: asking the same question twice within a couple minutes does not make it answered Nov 05 09:04:42 max----: you just annoy people Nov 05 09:13:23 max----, state your problem Nov 05 09:15:30 funny it breaks using ifdown/ifup but directly setting an ip via ifconfig works ?? Nov 05 09:20:36 I have to create an ad-hoc network using two beaglebone. The frequency that I want to use is 5GHz. I can create an ad-hoc network only if the frequency is set to 2.4 GHz, but 5GHz give me some problems Nov 05 09:23:30 max----: IBSS is not allowed on the 5GHz band Nov 05 09:25:23 you could mesh it Nov 05 09:26:24 what does it mean? the ad-hoc network (5GHz) can not be done? Nov 05 09:28:33 looks like Nov 05 09:28:35 use mesh Nov 05 09:31:22 yes, no ad hoc aka IBSS on that band. full stop. Nov 05 09:35:44 ok. Why can not be done? Nov 05 09:38:36 Does anyone know what the bitbake target is for rebuilding BBB-eMMC-flasher demo image? Nov 05 09:39:58 It si strange that technical support didn't say me it Nov 05 09:52:34 dm8tbr: I know there are differences about the use of different frequencies according to regulatory domain that is set. your assertion is true in every case? Nov 05 09:58:43 max----: AFAIU, it's up to you to verify it Nov 05 10:09:05 dm8tbr: ok thank you. Do you use tiwi5?

Nov 05 13:23:13 lol Nov 05 13:59:45 Hi, I have a question, is anybody here have tried to using BeagleBone Black and the CoresSight/ETM/ETB subsystem? Nov 05 14:01:58 Can anybody explain how to use the emmc-prepare.sh referenced here https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!category-topic/beagleboard/beaglebone-black/TBbjZ_gt1FU (3rd post) Nov 05 14:04:32 bzyx: most use printf Nov 05 14:05:05 i know, i know Nov 05 14:05:14 but my masters thesis topic is about coresight Nov 05 14:05:31 and i'm looking for a cheap developer board to play with Nov 05 14:08:27 Unfortunately it's very hard to find good one, especially if you are from Poland and the prices are *3 or *4.5 and shipping costs extremely high Nov 05 14:09:44 The beagle is anomolously cheap. Nov 05 14:09:55 As is the Pi. Nov 05 14:11:20 and beagle is a cortex-a architecture not like the old one in pi Nov 05 14:16:24 hi,guys Nov 05 14:57:45 hello Nov 05 14:59:20 I need help to get SGX running on the bone Nov 05 14:59:34 Here the thread in TIs E2E forums Nov 05 14:59:35 http://e2e.ti.com/support/arm/sitara_arm/f/791/p/298596/1048666.aspx#1048666 Nov 05 14:59:42 we are very close Nov 05 15:00:57 SGX ? Nov 05 15:01:24 what is it ? Nov 05 15:02:31 sgx is the egl (embedded openGL) graphics portion of the chip Nov 05 15:02:37 that's TI stuff and you're getting help from TI, so what should the community do? Nov 05 15:04:08 not sure what we can actually do to help Nov 05 15:11:28 Crofton / Crofton | work I need your help Nov 05 15:16:37 Is anybody able to verify that this process would create a flasher image for use on BBB? http://wiki.beagleboard.googlecode.com/git/SDCardValidationImageHowto.wiki Nov 05 15:33:20 sorry I disconnected somehow Nov 05 15:33:38 you could help by putting some pressure on TI Nov 05 15:34:04 they have to learn that they should do what community wants Nov 05 15:34:14 lol Nov 05 15:34:17 and this is sgx working on 3.8 Nov 05 15:34:30 on some other things Nov 05 15:34:35 but lets start with this Nov 05 15:41:08 It amuses me that Strahlex thinks that a small group of hobbyists could convince one of the world's largest suppliers of semiconductors to do anything. Nov 05 15:43:11 yes because these hobbyists work in some companies that actually use their chips Nov 05 15:43:19 at least some of theme Nov 05 15:43:21 them Nov 05 15:44:19 Also the BeagleBone is a good starting point for new products based on the AM335 MPU Nov 05 15:45:40 Yeah, good luck with that. Nov 05 15:45:45 so if something works well on this thing it is the easiest step to create a board with a similar cpu rather than using a cpu from other companies Nov 05 15:47:14 Hello. I used to using BeagleBone and I always ran the command "opkg update" and "opkg upgrade". I recently bought a BeagleBone Black. Sure enough I executed those commands and my BBB broke. Is there a simple guide to getting my BBB back to default settings and maybe a way to fix this? Nov 05 15:47:31 Yeah, reflash it. Nov 05 15:47:54 As far as I know, upgrading a BBB will break it, so do not do that. Nov 05 15:48:13 uh..there's still that bug? Nov 05 15:48:24 As I said, as far as I have heard. Nov 05 15:48:35 Haha, well by recently I met like 5 months ago Nov 05 15:48:41 Last time I was involved in a conversation about it, was like July. Nov 05 15:49:07 dwery: And, apparently, given bpetersen's experience. Nov 05 15:50:05 k Nov 05 15:51:05 2nd question. In windows 7 , under My Computer, there is a list of drives with a blue bar showing how much space is left. What does it mean when it is red? Nov 05 15:51:21 My microSD card that holds the BBB data has a red bar Nov 05 15:51:49 red just mean nearing full Nov 05 15:52:00 Awesome :) thank you Nov 05 16:01:33 Hey, why is 'mcasp0' missing from the device tree in 3.12? Nov 05 16:01:46 it's not in am33xx.dtsi any more Nov 05 16:13:37 re Nov 05 16:14:50 Hello everyone, trying to copy a newly built kernel to an SD card with angstrom already on it. install_kernel.sh gives me 'no space left on device' error on /sdb1 whereas it should be copying to /sdb2 Nov 05 16:16:15 this is for BBB Nov 05 16:16:31 Hello. I notice that the BeagleBone is setup for 115KBaud. Is this the same thing as saying it has a data transfer rate as 115.2Kbits/sec? Nov 05 16:17:46 bpetersen: 115200bps serial, aye Nov 05 16:18:16 Typically what you'd set your serial console at to access the bone Nov 05 16:19:09 is it possible to do the pinmux setting stuff via mmap() and writing to the registers from userspace, without the need to recompile a kernel/DT stuff? i found a kernel module which seems to do something like this and which is said to work on kernel 3.8... https://github.com/gkaindl/rfm12b-linux/blob/master/platform/plat_beaglebone.h Nov 05 16:19:16 Awesome. Helpful Nov 05 16:20:12 Rotti, I am kind of new to this but this might help Nov 05 16:20:14 http://www.alexanderhiam.com/tutorials/beaglebone-io-using-python-mmap/ Nov 05 16:22:03 bpetersen: hm, it seems not to work Nov 05 16:22:19 omap_mux does not exist at kernel 3.8 Nov 05 16:23:56 Okay. Good luck Nov 05 16:24:40 seems to be more like bad luck ;) Nov 05 16:30:30 Hey Nov 05 16:31:21 is it compulsory to use the monitors listed on this page with beaglebone Nov 05 16:31:25 http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=BeagleBone_Black_Accessories#HDMI-F_to_Micro_HDMI-M_Adapter Nov 05 16:33:21 hey Nov 05 16:33:28 yeah i wanted to know that Nov 05 16:33:49 is it compulsory to use the monitors and keyboards listed on the following page Nov 05 16:33:50 http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=BeagleBone_Black_Accessories#HDMI-F_to_Micro_HDMI-M_Adapter Nov 05 16:34:00 with beaglebone black Nov 05 16:34:17 Drake_: no, these are some that are confirmed to work Nov 05 16:35:20 but today i tried benq monitor with bbb Nov 05 16:35:24 and its not working Nov 05 16:35:45 lts showing nothing on the monitor Nov 05 16:36:14 i am using a mircro hdmi converter to hdmi converter and then hdmi converter to further convert it into vga Nov 05 16:36:24 and its showing nothing Nov 05 16:36:27 ..:( Nov 05 16:37:06 Drake_: does your converter work with other hdmi sources? Nov 05 16:37:40 i have tried other hdmi sources Nov 05 16:37:49 coz i don't have any Nov 05 16:37:50 ..:( Nov 05 16:38:09 i meant i haven't tried any hdmi source Nov 05 16:38:33 no idea then, might be the BBB or your convertetr Nov 05 16:39:20 mm.. maybe i should try doing via ssh Nov 05 16:39:22 .. Nov 05 16:39:58 see what resolution your converter supports Nov 05 16:40:19 okay Nov 05 16:40:49 well i am using the ones listed on the page i posted above Nov 05 16:41:22 Drake_: have you ever had any output from hdmi? Nov 05 16:41:47 Rotti: he does not know, he does not have a hdmi monitor Nov 05 16:41:55 on my bbb, the connector was not soldered correctly Nov 05 16:41:59 ah, i see Nov 05 16:43:47 nope Nov 05 16:44:02 :( Nov 05 16:44:27 Drake_: can you login via ssh/serial port to the bbb? Nov 05 16:44:41 then some output from `dmesg` could be useful Nov 05 16:44:55 but i gotta go now... Nov 05 16:45:00 actually i was having problem with ssh Nov 05 16:45:12 bbl Nov 05 16:45:34 so i reflashed debian on my bbb Nov 05 16:46:09 so i am going to try this tommorow Nov 05 17:15:05 hello Nov 05 17:16:41 I was wondering if any of you knows why gateone was removed from the latest angstrom image?

Nov 05 17:41:14 hmmm Nov 05 17:43:55 to install gateone do I just have it plugged into ethernet and issue "opkg install gateone" in putty? Nov 05 18:01:21 panto, are you there ? I was mistaken last night about eth0 hotplug causing a segfault. It was the SD card slot hotplug that was causing that. Nov 05 18:01:47 lol Nov 05 18:02:00 i was very tired and not thinking straight Nov 05 18:02:58 eth0 *used* not hotplug for me. it would jus tfail silently i havent checked recently Nov 05 18:03:09 used ot not* Nov 05 18:03:13 to . . . Nov 05 18:44:17 I'm thinking about making a web page for my beaglebone, that allows me to visualize pin usage and have point-and-click configuration for the pins. Nov 05 18:45:13 fun fun Nov 05 18:46:08 Before I spend a week hammering at it I would like to inquire if it's already been done... I haven't seen it yet. Nov 05 18:51:22 MarkusR: I think that exists... ping ka6sox about it, IIRC Nov 05 18:51:35 might be on elinux.org Nov 05 18:52:26 ds2 think he is talkign abotu somethign else Nov 05 18:53:32 ka6sox's son wrote a wenpage that gives information about pinkuxxing where this person seems to want to write a webpage on the bbb that configures pins on the device directly. Nov 05 18:55:04 Yeah, that would be helpful. Nov 05 19:13:32 What do people use to build front ends anymore? Last I did it was long time ago on a textpad. Can't remember a fraction of the tags and attribute descriptions anymore... Nov 05 19:18:51 sure Nov 05 19:19:03 wrong channel Nov 05 19:19:27 Hey Guys, I am trying to build kernel in beagleboard(Angstrom). I first do opkg install kernel-dev. It tells me Job for bonescript.socket failed. Also, when I go into kernel source code and type make scripts. It says no target for kernel/bound.c files. Any idea how to fix this? thank you so much Nov 05 19:20:33 you're not trying to build the kenrel ON the board are you? Nov 05 19:20:41 yes I am Nov 05 19:20:58 it'll take several hours or more Nov 05 19:21:37 on board. I followed this blog to install wifi adaptor actually http://www.codealpha.net/864/how-to-set-up-a-rtl8192cu-on-the-beaglebone-black-bbb/ Nov 05 19:22:20 I get errors on opkg upgrade Nov 05 19:22:29
