**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Nov 30 02:59:59 2013 Nov 30 03:08:19 I think I'll be baking some Madeleines for my guests :D Nov 30 03:37:24 Okay. SO the board is flashing now for almost 1 hour. Still only heartbeat and no full-lit leds :S Nov 30 03:55:55 hmm. I dont think it took that long but it was a go get a coffee moments so I did not even watch. Could have been an hour. Nov 30 03:56:04 anyone had a metric? Nov 30 03:56:19 i used a class 10 disk so that can also have an effect. Nov 30 04:01:32 adafruit shows in an article it being 35-45 minutes Nov 30 04:02:10 Kernle: did all 4 lights lightup before you released the button? Nov 30 04:05:08 Jep. Did finish ;-) Nov 30 04:05:18 cool. Nov 30 04:07:06 Still no xbmc... Nov 30 04:09:25 So, this is it then. I did my best - no XBMC for BBB. Nov 30 04:09:39 I think I will write a whole page how much this sucks ;-) Nov 30 04:11:52 Kernle: yep sounds about right. I think when the GPU issue is resolved as brought up above things will change. More effort will be made by devs when the end result is usable. Nov 30 04:12:05 for now more effort is on embedded headless stuff. Nov 30 04:12:35 or minimal head display stuff. Nov 30 04:12:38 Jup... Nov 30 04:13:34 i would gladly put in the time to replace my XBMC if I had some GPU help to get me to 30fps and well preferably 1080 but 720p would be a good start :) Nov 30 04:18:29 Nov 30 09:01:09 hi Nov 30 09:20:37 I'we heard that there is a global shipping problem with bbb. Do you know if its true or not? Nov 30 09:35:19 TrevizeDaneel: if by "global shipping problem" you mean that they simply are out of stock at the moment - yes. Nov 30 09:37:26 just order and you'll receive one as soon as new stock arrives Nov 30 09:37:34 if you hesitate you just go to the end of the queue... Nov 30 09:38:18 also not everyone is out of stock: http://www.watterott.com/de/BeagleBone-Black Nov 30 09:53:29 Well I am waiting for a replacement as my bbb has broken and that's what the shop owner told me. Then I'll wait some more. Thanks Nov 30 10:01:02 How did it break? Nov 30 11:08:15 not sure, I wrote a script with interrupts then it broke. When I turn it on the power blinks once and then shuts down Nov 30 11:12:33 Anything unique connected to it? Nov 30 11:12:55 TrevizeDaneel: you tried booting from an SD-card? Nov 30 11:14:31 well yeah some leds and resistors were connected but those pors were not active. I tried everythnig but as I assaid when u turn it on the power led blinks once and insta-shuts down. doesnt even boot up Nov 30 11:14:49 *ports Nov 30 11:19:17 Alas. Nov 30 11:19:20 How old was it? Nov 30 11:29:13 TrevizeDaneel: you didn't quite answer my question... Nov 30 11:33:54 is there a retail store for beaglebone Nov 30 11:41:00 <_av500_> nazan: maybe Nov 30 11:41:08 <_av500_> we dont know every store that exists Nov 30 12:03:01 i am not able to import python library in bbb Nov 30 12:11:57 MaxD: the BBB is hardware, you can't include python inside hardware. Nov 30 12:12:13 MaxD: hint, you didn't say which distro you are running and what you're trying to do Nov 30 12:20:38 default distribution of bbb i was blinking led as shown in adafruit but after writing it get something like this IndentationError:: command not found Nov 30 12:21:53 that would be the Ångström distribution Nov 30 12:22:27 and that rather sounds like some syntax error in your script Nov 30 15:49:25 hello i need help about beaglebone debian os . Nov 30 16:33:56 hey guys! anyone running debian or ubuntu with lxde on a beaglebone white? Nov 30 17:46:20 Does someone know maybe how to connect RS232-TTL to BB XM because i did not found any pinouts for RXD/TXD on the board. T Nov 30 19:40:34 Hello, is there some list of advantages/disadvantages of using Angstorm, Ubuntu od Debian? I am Ubuntu user and Angstorm website is dowm for few days so dealing with it is quite complicated. Thanks! Nov 30 19:51:15 adamhcz: the angstrom site is being moved, and all of the files necessary to work with the black are still available Nov 30 19:51:32 adamhcz: angstrom currently is the office reference distribution for black Nov 30 19:52:42 prpplague: thank you for the response (i have the older, white board but there is noted that images work for both boards). Nov 30 20:03:44 I have some issues with my BBB, if the board is running and i plug in an usb device *GSM Modem* it does not get powered until i reboot the board. is this behaviour normal ? Nov 30 20:12:36 prpplague, is debian working with minor bugs? Nov 30 21:26:19 vvu|Log: yes, many devices need to be connected at boot time Nov 30 21:34:30 SyNko: can this be disabled somehow ? Nov 30 21:36:00 vvu|Log: I dont know, i think is kernel related, maybe a daemon that search for new devices could do the job Nov 30 21:36:21 vvu|Log: im interested in a solution too Nov 30 21:40:09 ..or just a fix in the driver Nov 30 22:22:03 Ho... Nov 30 22:22:48 Hey guys, I am planning on buying a BBB instead of the Rpi and I am trying to understand what analog sensors are compatible with it. I mean 1.8v is just too low, so when we make voltage divider circuits doesn't it affect the range and resolution of the sensors? Nov 30 22:32:02 Basically not. Nov 30 22:32:27 There are an enormous number of low voltage sensors of various sorts available Nov 30 22:49:44 SpeedEvil any good site for basic sensors? Any examples? Nov 30 22:53:29 hello Nov 30 22:59:16 DarkSector: what is it you're trying to sense? Nov 30 22:59:39 At the moment I am just trying to decide b/w a BBB and a RPi Nov 30 22:59:50 I need to know that it's not too difficult to find sensors for the former Nov 30 23:00:19 I mean we have 5v to 3v3 llc that we can use to convert normal hobby sensors to Rpi level but BBB takes it to a level below it Nov 30 23:00:25 davr ^ Nov 30 23:00:49 The only reason why I am not interested in the Pi is because of low number of GPIOs Nov 30 23:01:30 rpi doesn't even have analog input Nov 30 23:01:37 so you're comparing 1.8v vs nothing Nov 30 23:01:51 not 1.8v vs 3.3v Nov 30 23:02:11 wait wat Nov 30 23:02:44 aaaand BBB it is Nov 30 23:03:24 both boards use 3.3V for digital io Nov 30 23:03:33 Say no more, ordering one right now Nov 30 23:03:56 Oh also, a friend of mine has a BBB that has stopped working. How do I get it repaired? Nov 30 23:04:31 only things better about rpi: more examples/info online for it, a couple dollars cheaper, and it has 3d acceleration & better video out. BBB is better in every other way that i can tell Nov 30 23:04:49 flashing the eMMC is different than described on the BBB org site. Nov 30 23:04:50 Don't need 3d acceleration and/or video out Nov 30 23:06:21 BBB stopped working how? OS? Nov 30 23:06:35 No Nov 30 23:06:50 When I plug it in, only the power led glows Nov 30 23:06:56 the others don't even blink Nov 30 23:07:41 Now we bought it from Jameco electronics on July 21, do you think there's a chance we can claim warranty? Nov 30 23:07:48 And if so, how do I go about doing that? Nov 30 23:08:03 i made mistakes with my new board and had to flash the eMMC. that was painfull but every thing works Nov 30 23:08:27 No it was working before Nov 30 23:08:35 then it just stopped after a while Nov 30 23:09:21 Have you tried to flash it? Nov 30 23:10:28 If the USB communication isn't working, can I still flash it? Nov 30 23:10:33 on my everything works save for the wireless. Security is listed as PSK and it is not so I can't log onto Nov 30 23:11:35 yes flash could do it Nov 30 23:11:45 Okay Nov 30 23:11:53 let me try then, let me see how I can flash it Nov 30 23:13:05 Shit. I need a micro sd for that Nov 30 23:20:20 I had one from an old phone. Nov 30 23:21:23 anyone familar with how to upgrade/install wireless opkg's Nov 30 23:25:35 what's an wireless opkg? Nov 30 23:26:56 seems the various modules are installed by linux apt. it will retrive the 'code' and install it. Nov 30 23:27:51 I have done this before but the pointer in apt is wrong [or something] and it won't properly load/install Dec 01 00:28:21 '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' Dec 01 01:57:24 does anyone have a good solution for updating code on the pi as i am developing on a remote machine? I was looking into having git pull when a repo changes, but i don't wanna have to do it for a ton of small changes. I am running OSX and was looking into using SSHFS maybe Dec 01 02:51:58 Ping **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Dec 01 02:59:58 2013
