**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Mar 11 02:59:59 2014 Mar 11 03:24:10 I have a BB-XM and was thinking about getting a BBBlack. Can I use the same power adapter for the Black? Mar 11 03:38:09 Yes. Mar 11 05:26:12 How often do people come in with "Is this better at x than RPi?" questions? Mar 11 05:28:58 Purp3L: too often Mar 11 05:40:18 do we have to send the "Hello World" test project with the project proposal? Mar 11 06:00:26 Does there exist a disassembler for PRU assembly? Mar 11 06:01:45 yes Mar 11 06:02:22 where do I find it? Mar 11 06:02:45 google found this one: http://sourceforge.net/projects/prudebug/ Mar 11 07:09:44 Morning Mar 11 07:49:37 av500: I am getting a weird disassembly, many unrecognized opcodes Mar 11 07:52:16 https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/xTqKiZZy Mar 11 07:53:09 need some help with deciphering this Mar 11 08:06:30 hey guys Mar 11 08:06:41 I have a short question for you regarding the BB Black Mar 11 08:07:03 "why is it out of stock" Mar 11 08:07:10 "is it better than the RPi" Mar 11 08:07:16 "can it run flash" Mar 11 08:07:35 if your quetion is one of those, we are not interested. anything else, go ahead :) Mar 11 08:07:38 hm.. more as in, I would like to make a small computer vision application on it with face tracking from a few cheap USB webcams Mar 11 08:07:54 how would I be able to estimate its performance? Mar 11 08:08:31 well its no dsp, and its no multicore x86. if you want lots of frames from lots of cameras, it will not work. Mar 11 08:08:34 Mar 11 08:08:50 SegF4ult: you have a ~1GHz Cortex A8 Mar 11 08:08:59 with some SIMD capabilities Mar 11 08:09:07 now you do the math :) Mar 11 08:09:10 okay :) Mar 11 08:10:03 so, I reckon provided that I don't necessarily need a realtime behaviour and the fact that the image size from each webcam is 614k or so, I could get something fairly reasonable Mar 11 08:10:15 not really fast, but as a proof of concept Mar 11 08:10:40 SegF4ult: you are obviously messing up "realtime" and "fast" anyways. Mar 11 08:10:56 realtime can be once per day Mar 11 08:11:09 and 614k is still a lot if you need 100fps or such Mar 11 08:11:16 or 1000fps Mar 11 08:11:18 so... Mar 11 08:11:22 it depends(tm) Mar 11 08:11:26 you're absolutely correct Mar 11 08:11:49 I always am absolutely correct. It's a genetic thing. Mar 11 08:12:57 haha Mar 11 08:14:13 I have to say, I liked the design of the beagleboard when it comes down to these 'capes' as you call them Mar 11 08:17:06 I suppose I will just have to order one, have Patience™® and try and see how my intended application will run Mar 11 08:17:22 if I can't get it to work, I'll just have a nice platform to play with :) Mar 11 08:18:44 you can also find out a lot without even having the hardware Mar 11 08:19:00 like run the inner core of your alghoritm in qemu or so Mar 11 08:19:34 take some pIII-600Mhz and run your stuff there. Mar 11 08:20:17 might cost more than a BBB :) Mar 11 08:20:40 av500: huh? cost for that kind of hardware? Mar 11 08:20:57 hm.. even so, I was planning to order the hardware anyway, but the QEMU approach would work too, costs a bit more time to set up I suppose :) Mar 11 08:21:19 yes Mar 11 08:21:27 it makes you do actual work Mar 11 08:21:41 as in evaluate and optimize your algorithm Mar 11 08:22:15 av500: did you look at the disassembly? Mar 11 08:22:18 no Mar 11 08:22:23 I have no idea about PRU Mar 11 08:22:34 wait for the US to wake up Mar 11 08:22:59 in 6 hrs? Mar 11 08:24:45 please do u have a any reseller or dritributor in africa (ghana) Mar 11 08:24:48 ?? Mar 11 08:26:30 nasel: all resellers are listed on the website Mar 11 08:33:39 not sure if this is the correct place to ask, but can the laptop smart batteries be charged standalone, or the chip inside will refuse to deliver power to the battery unless "authorized" through SMBus? Mar 11 08:35:55 Abhishek_: no idea Mar 11 08:36:41 I was considering to use them as a power source for one of my circuits. Mar 11 09:01:53 av500: how do I create a eLinux wiki user account? Mar 11 09:15:55 Abhishek_: by registring Mar 11 09:42:14 I found the link. Thanks! Mar 11 10:12:28 Hi, I would like to know the temperature range for the BeagleBone Black and it's height. Can you give me these informations? Mar 11 10:18:21 should all be in the BBB SRM Mar 11 10:18:30 respectively, googleable Mar 11 10:28:04 Hi, I can't find the guaranteed temperature range for BeagleBone Black? Neither in the BBB SRM Mar 11 10:28:16 qinno: wrong. Mar 11 10:28:20 Where can I find this information? Mar 11 10:28:28 qinno: how much are you willing to bet that its in the SRM? Mar 11 10:29:29 I'm sorry if it's in the SRM, but I didn't find it. Mar 11 10:29:44 qinno: then your exercise for today: read the SRM again. Mar 11 10:33:05 if you need a hint: most tools that can be used for viewing pdf documents like the SRM is one, also provide some functionality to find occurences of arbitrary strings in the content. Mar 11 10:33:09 *sigh* Mar 11 10:41:14 * KotH hands LetoThe2nd a piece of dark chocolate with bits of metal Mar 11 10:47:42 KotH: ah, aka crünchy chöcöläte Mar 11 10:48:52 tbr: we have chocolate for all tästes ;) Mar 11 10:53:15 has anyone got ubuntu 13.10 working on a beaglebone c3 Mar 11 10:53:25 beagleBOARD c3 Mar 11 10:55:42 shouldnt be a problem Mar 11 10:55:53 maybe you have to replace the kernel Mar 11 10:55:56 but that's easy Mar 11 10:59:17 rcn might have something on his pages Mar 11 11:04:29 I have been trying the setup_sdcard script Mar 11 11:04:36 ./setup_sdcard.sh --mmc /dev/mmcblk0 --dtb omap3-beagle --uboot beagle Mar 11 11:04:38 or Mar 11 11:04:43 ./setup_sdcard.sh --mmc /dev/mmcblk0 --uboot beagle Mar 11 11:04:59 I am still stuck at Kernel image @ 0x80300000 [ 0x000000 - 0x342528 ] Mar 11 11:05:00 Starting kernel ... Mar 11 11:05:02 Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel. Mar 11 11:05:07 then nothing Mar 11 11:05:52 make sure it has console enabled Mar 11 11:07:34 it does, ttySO2 Mar 11 11:07:43 uEnv says that anyways Mar 11 11:23:58 Has anyone tried to load u-boot directly through jtag? It doesn't want to run without running the SPL first. I am setting up ram manually and want to skip the SPL. Mar 11 11:30:44 Hi, running a custom 3.10 kernel on a 512MB memory system, the problem is that it randomly fast and slow to unresponsive. Using fvwm2, the free command show that just over 250MB is in use. How can the slowness and unresponsiveness be explained when acpi and such are disabled in the kernel ? Mar 11 11:36:55 wut? Mar 11 11:37:12 is that running on a beagle board? Mar 11 11:37:25 yes Mar 11 11:37:32 xm Mar 11 11:37:33 what does acpi has to do with it? Mar 11 11:37:45 miken: sure, how do you think it was debugged the first time? Mar 11 11:38:16 probably nothing, but due to a patch i had to disable acpi Mar 11 11:38:30 miken: perhaps you are setting up the RAM incorrectly? There have been working GEL files floating around, but it has been too long for me to know what ones work. Mar 11 11:42:53 jkridner: I'm pretty sure the ram is set up correctly. I load the u-boot image with openocd and it verifies fine. If I try to run it, nothing happens. If I load spl first, and then setup ram and load u-boot, it works. I don't get it. Mar 11 11:47:13 is this your own board? Mar 11 11:47:40 jkridner: asking me ? Mar 11 11:48:26 miken: do you know if the code is trying to read the EEPROM or anything? Since you are loading with JTAG, you should be able to step through and see where it goes wrong. Mar 11 11:48:45 hvn2: no, miken Mar 11 11:48:48 jkridner: it's custom hw based on the bb white design. Works the same way, except of booting from a spi flash instead of sd. Mar 11 11:49:30 I'd just suggest running to various points to see where it is going wrong. That's the value of JTAG after all. :-) Mar 11 11:50:21 jkridner: The original u-boot reads from eeprom to determine what kind of board it's on, but I have outcommented all of this. And it boots perfectly fine, when the spl has been there first... Mar 11 11:51:07 jkridner: I guess that's the next step. gdb won't fetch symbols from my u-boot bin, so have to figure that out first. Mar 11 12:02:09 hi Mar 11 12:03:10 i found different projects dedicated ho hamradio activity with beagle board on http://elinux.org/BeagleBoard/contest Mar 11 12:04:07 is suggest to see: http://beagleboard.org/project/beagleham/ i did it ! but i have not found nothing that could help me Mar 11 12:05:06 i was interested to a decode and encode cw Mar 11 12:14:50 i am waiting your reply about the fact that i have not found nothing Mar 11 12:34:02 hey Mar 11 12:44:27 Hello guys, Is there any method to re flash the nand (eMMc) from SD card booted Angstrom. I mean the user button pressed method is not working for me . So i have booted the OS in SD card mode and i want to reflash the NAND using new image. Mar 11 12:45:10 There is. Install Ubuntu. ;) Mar 11 12:45:49 Or Debian. https://rcn-ee.net/deb/rootfs/ Mar 11 12:46:30 I'm not that fond of the Angstrom... Mar 11 12:47:01 prem: it should, if you use the angstrom image that is labeled "flasher" Mar 11 12:47:47 I have a question about the serial booting. Mar 11 12:48:35 I used buildroot to compile all the stuff and tried to send "u-boot-spl.bin" with xmodem. Mar 11 12:48:56 Wasn't successful... Mar 11 12:49:32 blahblah_: did you make sure that the board in use (you didn't name it) is actually waiting for something on serial? Mar 11 12:49:58 Leto, how to do that? Mar 11 12:50:12 I have Ubuntu in eMMC. Mar 11 12:50:14 blahblah_: read up on the SYSBOOT pins Mar 11 12:51:01 you will have to set them in a way that makes your boards boot order start with the serial port Mar 11 12:51:52 So pushing the boot button is not enough? :( Mar 11 12:51:59 Or S2 button. Mar 11 12:52:34 i have no idea what gaves you the impression that any one of these bottons will make the boot order change to serial. can you please show where you got that from? Mar 11 12:52:45 Argh... Mar 11 12:52:50 From TI site! Mar 11 12:52:55 link, please. Mar 11 12:54:05 http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Sitara_Linux_Training:_UBoot_Board_Port Mar 11 12:54:43 where on that humonguous page? Mar 11 12:55:22 Why there are so much misinformation about Beaglebone? :( Mar 11 12:55:38 there is no misinformation about beaglebone. Mar 11 12:55:44 Two year old advices that won't work anymore... Mar 11 12:55:45 you are just making up stuff. Mar 11 12:55:59 You are trolling. Mar 11 12:56:44 i also have no idea why two year old instructions should work on a board that was release only one year ago Mar 11 12:57:10 Hard to find any new information. Mar 11 12:57:11 so please, stop your fantasizing and just read the documentation that is actually meant for the board that you want to use. Mar 11 12:57:27 and, the BBB SRM is pretty exact on the boot order. Mar 11 12:59:32 section 5.3.5 to be precise, but of course you already knew that. Mar 11 13:01:47 an in more depth, the AM3359 TRM Mar 11 13:01:55 http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AM335x_U-Boot_User%27s_Guide#Boot_Over_UART Mar 11 13:01:58 You mean this? Mar 11 13:02:47 well, as the very text you linked says, this refers to the AM335x EVM. Mar 11 13:03:08 so if you are using th AM335X EVM board, this information ought to be correct. Mar 11 13:03:15 it does not refer to the BBB Mar 11 13:03:40 as this http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AM335x_U-Boot_User%27s_Guide#Boot_Switch_Settings Mar 11 13:03:46 clearly shows, by the way. Mar 11 13:04:04 What is EVM? What is TRM? Mar 11 13:04:10 so again, stop fantasizing that any snippet you pull out of random pages actually applies to the hardware that you use. Mar 11 13:04:26 It's not fantasizing, I'm trying to generalize. Mar 11 13:04:29 TRM is the Technical Reference Manual Mar 11 13:04:42 i have not found documentation about for ham radio with beagle board Mar 11 13:04:50 EVM is TI's name for non-lowcost eval boards Mar 11 13:05:13 BBB is an EVM? Mar 11 13:05:17 no Mar 11 13:05:25 blahblah_: it totally is fantasizing and implying that everything out there is just meant for you. which just is not true. Mar 11 13:05:27 but i found an article dedicated to Rasperry, and then was shown the beagle board for $$125USD Mar 11 13:05:29 high-cost eval board then? Mar 11 13:05:58 anyways, I got some work to do. sufficient relevant information has been given, IMHO. Mar 11 13:06:01 have a nice day. Mar 11 13:06:51 at this point will be necessary to install a SD-CARD, with few packages for GNU/linux dedicated to ham radio activity and a lcd Mar 11 13:07:11 and the game will be done Mar 11 13:08:22 so will be possible to have a beagle board which could works for different types of ham radio activity Mar 11 13:08:52 everything is possible Mar 11 13:09:00 prem: http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardNAND Mar 11 13:11:23 Ten|Tec a well known company which develops ham radio transceivers from 40 years and more, has announced more than 1 year ago Mar 11 13:11:50 Leto: "everything out there is just meant for you." Then for who? Only military-industrial professionals? Mar 11 13:12:02 a tranceiver for 20 Meters == 14 Mhz and 40 Meters == 7 Mhz only for CW Mar 11 13:12:27 no; is a low cost ham radio it costs $$199USD; Mar 11 13:12:59 and has not no one LCD; it has not a good support for LCD; and has not a good support again for CW Mar 11 13:13:13 it uses Arduino Mar 11 13:14:05 i wrote on: http://qrper.com/2013/05/ten-tec-introduces-the-model-506-rebel-an-open-source-qrp-transceiver/comment-page-1/#comment-200117 Mar 11 13:15:01 There was some RF cape for BBB but not for the shortwave frequencies... ;P Mar 11 13:15:50 I doubt there's a supply anymore for those lower frequencies... Mar 11 13:16:04 i found the source code released under the terms of GNU General Public License on http://pa3ang.nl/wp/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/RebelAllianceMod_v1_0.pde Mar 11 13:16:07 Or even enough demand. Mar 11 13:18:10 i wrote too on: http://pa3ang.nl/wp/archives/3687/comment-page-1#comment-2670 Mar 11 13:19:34 as can work an Arduino on HF(High Frequncies); can do better Beagle Board Mar 11 13:20:24 you won't get answer here. :( Mar 11 13:23:47 see http://www.tentec.com/rebel-model-506-open-source-qrp-cw-transceiver/ and http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?Prod=CHIPKIT-UNO32 Mar 11 13:58:32 So I need a software from TI to do USB or serial boot? Right? Mar 11 13:58:59 SRM 5.3.5 says that. Mar 11 13:59:23 And may I ask what is the specific name for the software? Mar 11 13:59:42 no Mar 11 14:00:07 you dont need a special SW Mar 11 14:00:15 its just basic USB or serial data transfer Mar 11 14:00:27 minicom is enough? Mar 11 14:00:37 i tried it already. Mar 11 14:00:37 no Mar 11 14:00:47 unless you script it Mar 11 14:01:02 just write a little C program that sends the SW over Mar 11 14:01:08 :D Mar 11 14:04:16 it would be much faster to use serial boot... :) Mar 11 14:04:31 I am talking about serial boot Mar 11 14:04:58 xmodem is not enough so... what is? Mar 11 14:05:12 the protocol is defined in the TRM, no? Mar 11 14:05:20 did you look it up? Mar 11 14:06:27 Yep. Mar 11 14:06:34 Didn't find TRM. Mar 11 14:07:14 Should it be here? http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack#Hardware_Files Mar 11 14:07:40 http://www.ti.com/product/am3359 Mar 11 14:07:45 there Mar 11 14:07:50 in its 20MB glory Mar 11 14:09:40 What a thick book... Mar 11 14:14:24 And what's the protocol page? :) Mar 11 14:14:29 Or name? Mar 11 14:15:20 UART chapter? Mar 11 14:18:11 boot chapter Mar 11 14:20:00 what's the chapter's number? Mar 11 14:20:38 have you read the manual yourself or just trying to kid me? :) Mar 11 14:21:19 are you here to lament or to learn something? Mar 11 14:21:29 kidnap you? Mar 11 14:23:00 av500, both. Mar 11 14:23:22 there's no major chapter named "boot". Mar 11 14:24:09 gah Mar 11 14:25:31 Initialization, maybe? Mar 11 14:27:22 did you search for "boot"? Mar 11 14:32:14 I just found the boot procedure when browsing the index... Mar 11 14:36:09 "UART boot uses x-modem client protocol to receive the boot image." Mar 11 14:36:16 That should work then! Mar 11 14:36:22 jkridner: yes I can. I will just say that the current limit for IO pins should be more visible. Right now, I doubt most users even know - it's hard to find unless you're specifically looking for it Mar 11 14:36:56 "Utilities like hyperterm, teraterm, minicom can be used on the PC side to download the boot image to the board" Mar 11 14:37:23 av500, you claimed that i must script the minicom! Mar 11 14:38:08 This is all wasted work. Mar 11 14:38:13 Back to the square one. Mar 11 14:38:40 synic: it is in the SRM. really need to break down that info into web content. Mar 11 14:39:05 bone101 patches welcome! Mar 11 14:39:12 elinux wiki is a wiki Mar 11 14:39:18 blahblah_: wasted work? Mar 11 14:39:22 what work did you do? Mar 11 14:39:26 you read the TRM Mar 11 14:39:32 and found out how booting works Mar 11 14:39:37 after I pointed you to it Mar 11 14:39:42 so what is wasted? Mar 11 14:40:19 you could have just said that it uses xmodem protocol... Mar 11 14:40:27 I had no idea what it uses Mar 11 14:40:35 but I knew where you can find out Mar 11 14:40:39 and I told you Mar 11 14:40:42 okay Mar 11 14:40:45 seems that was a mistake Mar 11 14:40:52 that manual could come handy, though... Mar 11 14:40:59 not necessarily. Mar 11 14:41:44 well, back to testing xmodem transfer. :P Mar 11 14:42:19 Maybe the boot file is invalid? Mar 11 14:42:59 maybe Mar 11 14:43:25 *cough* SYSBOOT pins *cough* Mar 11 14:43:43 maybe read the chapter about booting Mar 11 14:43:57 already read that. Mar 11 14:44:10 it's very short. Mar 11 14:44:14 dammit, that cough really got worse tha last two hours... seems it always hits me when i want to say SYSBOOT *coughcoughcough* Mar 11 14:44:25 :D Mar 11 14:45:20 insults are sometimes hidden between coughes... ;P Mar 11 14:45:32 not insults, but hints Mar 11 14:45:44 hintsults Mar 11 14:45:46 av500: hintsults?

Mar 11 14:52:32 don't know, it just came to my mind by magic and foresight. Mar 11 14:52:52 but .. i feel its some kind of indexing. Mar 11 14:53:09 :D Mar 11 14:53:30 probably from ... left to right. my feeling says, that the 26 is the most important number in it, and the second 1 is the least important one. Mar 11 14:53:48 wait, i can feel more Mar 11 14:53:50 !!! Mar 11 14:53:58 i am seeing... a text document Mar 11 14:54:01 YES Mar 11 14:54:14 it is... an index to somethin... in a TEXT DOCUMENT!!!

Mar 11 14:55:06 no... my vidion does not include mothers, nor boards. specifically no motherboards. Mar 11 14:55:13 Or with software? Mar 11 14:55:14 vision, even.

Mar 11 14:56:20 in that table, there are numbers... words... of unknown meaning... Mar 11 14:56:41 I see mention of SYSBOOT in the SRM too Mar 11 14:56:55 i feel there is a lost and lonely soul here that is in dire need of guidance by this TABLE...

Mar 11 20:05:24 why nobody writing :( Mar 11 20:05:40 I want to change the SSH port on my BBB. Mar 11 20:07:31 I have tried editing the script in directory init.d named drop bear, but it does no good. That script tells me to "Edit /etc/default/dropbear instead!" but there is no default directory in etc. Mar 11 20:08:20 are you using openssh Mar 11 20:10:16 No. I am using dropbear in the Angstrtom distro that came on the BBB Mar 11 20:10:39 in opens its under Mar 11 20:10:46 /etc/ssh/sshd_config Mar 11 20:10:51 openssh Mar 11 20:12:49 Here is the contents of /etc/ssh:beaglebone:/etc/ssh# ls -la total 16 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 1 01:07 . drwxr-xr-x 66 root root 4096 Jan 1 2000 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1494 Jul 3 2013 ssh_config -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1494 Jan 1 01:07 ssh_config.original_copy Mar 11 20:13:01 just edit /etc/sysconfig/dropbear. Hmm, no such file. Well, create it and add: OPTIONS="-p 222" Now you are good to go. Mar 11 20:13:11 for port 222 Mar 11 20:14:38 or where your config files stored Mar 11 20:15:08 no dropbear file in the sysconfig directory. Don't know where the config files are stored on this machine Mar 11 20:15:43 try this link Mar 11 20:15:44 https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/40H4aIqTzIM Mar 11 20:34:40 The post you gave me worked. Changed the /lib/systemd/system/dropbear@.service and the /lib/systemd/system/dropbear.socket then rebooted. Thanks Mar 11 20:48:13 Second question for today: How do I assign a static ip address to the BBB running conn man in Angstrom distro? Mar 11 20:51:48 Never mind. found the link: http://derekmolloy.ie/set-ip-address-to-be-static-on-the-beaglebone-black/ **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Mar 11 21:08:05 2014 Mar 11 21:10:45 Is it possible to charge a battery on the BBB if the board is powered off (shutdown -h now)? Mar 11 21:11:01 I can't seem to get it to function as expected, do I need to poke the pmic in some manner? Mar 11 21:12:30 Hello, i need some info about the latest Debian eMMC flasher. I unpacked it to sdcard and booted. Now i get a screen saying "this is a temporary desktop session" "Flashing the system to the eMMC.". - When/How do i know the flashing has finished? Mar 11 21:13:08 the angstrom one turns all the led's on Mar 11 21:13:16 you can log into the shell and investigate with ps -a Mar 11 21:13:36 ah good idea Mar 11 21:15:45 if only it would show up on nmap Mar 11 21:17:18 ah it worked Mar 11 21:17:23 bonsaikuh: if you don't have a serial cable i highly recommend you invest in one :) Mar 11 21:18:03 ah i found the angstrom flasher put a shell on the hdmi "console" Mar 11 21:18:56 i got a usb to serial... the flasher reboots after flashing and lights all LEDs Mar 11 21:19:28 but it seems to work now, so im all set Mar 11 21:28:16 [kernel] lehni opened pull request #90: Updated branch for 3.8-rt (3.8-rt...3.8-rt) http://git.io/CToqMg Mar 12 01:28:00 <_Aqua> heya, I have created my own device tree overlay, and I can load it fine doing a standard echo to the cape manager via the console, but it is not loading during boot even though I have the part number enabled within the optargs via uEnv.txt. Any idea's? Mar 12 01:29:05 are you sure its reading the right uEnv.txt? Mar 12 01:29:18 <_Aqua> yeah Mar 12 01:29:36 any messages in dmesg? Mar 12 01:29:37 <_Aqua> tested with other capes Mar 12 01:29:45 no address conflicts, etc Mar 12 01:30:16 <_Aqua> just gonna do a reboot and confirm the dmesg. Mar 12 01:31:32 <_Aqua> aye... there is an error: failed to load slot-10 BB-BONE-RELAY:00A0 (prio 0) Mar 12 01:33:14 <_Aqua> I don't have to custom compile a kernel for custom capes do i? Mar 12 01:33:37 no . thats the whole point of device-tree Mar 12 01:33:47 and the capemgr interface Mar 12 01:33:59 does your custom cape have an eeprom? Mar 12 01:34:00 <_Aqua> that's what I thought. Mar 12 01:34:09 <_Aqua> no Mar 12 01:34:20 oh wait if you're overriding in uEnv .. shouldn't be necessary .. thats for auto=detect Mar 12 01:37:58 <_Aqua> just weird to me that it loads fine when doing an echo, but not via uEnv Mar 12 01:40:36 two totally different mechanisms :) Mar 12 01:40:45 <_Aqua> true Mar 12 01:46:55 i'm new to the BBB, so forgive my ignorant question, but is there a pre-made debian image i can just write to my SD card and boot into or do I have to do a netinstall as per the wiki? Mar 12 01:47:58 eewiki.net / linuxonarm / beagleboneblack :) Mar 12 01:48:14 might need to google that .. I've probably mangled it Mar 12 01:48:42 its not a dd'able image directly.. but easier than netinst .. yuk Mar 12 01:48:58 http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardDebian Mar 12 01:49:00 I thinkthere are one/two debian images around .. again .. google is your friend :) Mar 12 01:50:04 specifically http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardDebian#raw_microSD_img Mar 12 01:50:21 I know this because I've been doing it a lot :D Mar 12 01:50:27 there ya go :p Mar 12 01:52:48 If you want the really dumbed down version of it I wrote up the process at http://www.gnube.hcoop.net/wiki/InstallDebian Mar 12 01:53:04 can I implement a zboss stack on the debian image Mar 12 01:53:53 No idea sorry >.< I'm getting owncloud to work on it Mar 12 01:54:32 I'm not very technically advanced (I'm currently looking up how to mount an external drive on Debian!) so I can't tell you one way or another Mar 12 01:55:42 ./mount /dev/node /mnt/point Mar 12 01:55:49 :) Mar 12 01:56:03 hi prpplague Mar 12 01:56:16 veremit: greetings earthling Mar 12 01:56:23 hows production :) Mar 12 01:56:31 clicking along Mar 12 01:56:49 veremit: just wish the people using the black in OEM would stop Mar 12 01:56:55 lol ah Mar 12 01:57:12 too popular eh?! Mar 12 01:57:34 indeed Mar 12 01:58:05 its that or the pie .. I'd think you'd be glad for a slice (scuse the pun!) Mar 12 01:58:33 just can't get anything else so cheap Mar 12 01:58:51
