**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Apr 28 02:59:59 2014 Apr 28 05:05:12 wheres my bbb Apr 28 06:30:03 Hello everyone, anybody here? I got a question, I am confusing with that question all night. The Problem is when I would like to do some test with servo motor, and use the sudo sh -c "echo am33xx_pwm > /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slots" and sudo sh -c "echo bone_pwm_P8_13 > /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slots", the IanMu pwm_test_P8_13.# file does not exit the file( ) Apr 28 06:30:25 anyone know what going on with my Beaglebone Black? Sorry for bother you guys Apr 28 06:38:27 NO ONE KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THAT PROB? Apr 28 06:39:46 IanMu: NO NEED TO SHOUT BECAUSE YOU DID NOT GET AN ANSWER INSTANTLY Apr 28 06:40:24 find out which file is missing. is the /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slots there? Apr 28 06:41:12 sorry, yeah it is. Apr 28 06:41:47 ()the *exact* same name, especially the number? Apr 28 06:43:18 well, I am a lit bit confusing your question Apr 28 06:43:42 u mean the file's name? Apr 28 06:43:46 the bone_capemgr.# can have different numbers Apr 28 06:44:20 the bone_capemgr.# , the number is 9 no other file Apr 28 06:45:19 can you try doing: ls /lib/firmware | grep bone_pwm_P8_13 Apr 28 06:45:38 then check under /lib/firmware if the device tree blob for am33xx_pwm is there. and check first, if that name is actually correct. Apr 28 06:45:54 yeah Apr 28 06:47:26 I just write the command as hype_ told, it just has one file (bone_pwm_P8_13-00A0.dtbo) Apr 28 06:47:53 ok then it seems to be there Apr 28 06:48:53 well I am not sure, I tried to load the device tree files you are trying and it worked perfectly for me Apr 28 06:51:29 ah, i got it, the all night to check this stupid problem, thank you so much. hype_ and LetoThe2nd. Apr 28 06:51:41 it worked? Apr 28 06:52:00 IanMu: so please mark lesson learned: less shouting, more patience. Apr 28 06:54:23 Beacause the deadline is comming, I just has few days to complete, so I was so un-polite for everyone, I am really sorry for that. Apr 28 06:55:13 it works thank you Apr 28 07:08:24 has anybody used the sainsmart 3.2 inch lcd with the beaglebone black? I see there is a framebuffer driver that should facilitate this but i am unsure of how to hook it up Apr 28 07:30:47 IanMu: eat more chocolate Apr 28 07:31:34 I just eat some M&M chocolate ........ Apr 28 07:31:35 IanMu: deadlines are something you have to get used to, to be a successfull engineer. especially to the *wuuushhhhhh* sound they make when they pass and nothing is ready yet Apr 28 07:31:46 M&M is not chocolate Apr 28 07:32:10 it's a nut with a tiny layer of chocolate surrogate Apr 28 07:32:11 deadlines have the word "dead" in them Apr 28 07:32:44 haha . I really going to die.....for it... Apr 28 07:33:56 av500: Deadlines aren't dead, they're just pining for the fjords. Apr 28 07:38:11 hype_ are u there? Apr 28 07:39:37 I just find the file still no include these file........ Apr 28 07:40:29 and I used the command "ls /lib/firmware | grep bone_pwm_P8_13" reference hype_.. Apr 28 08:13:10 ? Apr 28 08:18:49 Hi I'm trying to make a batch of BBBlack, I have a good supplier in China and he told me, they can make the PCB , assemble the components but don't know how to check the assembly. They don't know how to check the board. Apr 28 08:19:01 anybody knows how to check the board? Apr 28 08:20:57 Hi? Apr 28 08:21:28 well, how do they check other PCBs that they make? Apr 28 08:21:37 or they dont Apr 28 08:22:07 GMaroto: well, checking your assembly is a bit the knowledge of the manufacturer, or you. its a bit of the special knowledge thats not for free ;) Apr 28 08:22:41 they check the board with an AOI (Automated optical inspection) Apr 28 08:23:13 no magic there. Apr 28 08:23:17 the problem with the BBB is the 3 chips with BGA Apr 28 08:23:51 you can 1) xray them 2) ignore 3) trust them that they know how to do things. Apr 28 08:24:00 its up to you. Apr 28 08:24:33 if becoming a board vendor whould just need to go to some irc channel and everybody would hand out all manufacturing knowledge, wouldn't we all be board vendors? Apr 28 08:24:53 many PCBs these days are BGA Apr 28 08:25:05 if BGA is problems for your manufacturer, I would pick another one Apr 28 08:25:10 is a problem* Apr 28 08:25:25 av500 obviously votes for option 3) ;) Apr 28 08:27:07 ok maybe option 3 it's the best for my supplier. Apr 28 08:27:13 thank you Apr 28 08:27:32 BGA is usually not "tested" for consumer stuff Apr 28 08:27:43 you make a few, check they work and then keep the process Apr 28 08:27:54 then you do high level tests Apr 28 08:31:15 Ok if I choose to trust they made a good job..I have another question. What are the steps for load linux? Directly load linux through image file in my SD? or I have to load a bootloader (or similar) like in arduino?? Apr 28 08:31:48 try www.beagleboard.org Apr 28 08:31:53 and www.google.com Apr 28 08:32:02 that has been asked and answered already many times Apr 28 08:32:15 "i want to sell baord but have no knowledge" Apr 28 08:32:28 answer "hire an engineer who knows stuff" Apr 28 08:32:40 or 3D-print one Apr 28 08:32:44 yay! Apr 28 08:33:06 plus: be aware that you are not allowed to name your board "Beaglebone Black" Apr 28 08:34:31 we all know that selling BBBs for funny prices seems like an easy way to make money this time. but really: there's a little bit more to it than just downloading the open data and hire a chines factory to produce it. Apr 28 08:34:35 jajaja ok, I'll try to find in google Apr 28 08:35:13 yes of course, I don't want to use the BBB name Apr 28 09:08:03 hii all i uploaded the angstrom image in my beagle bone board Apr 28 09:08:16 but my screen is not displaying any thing Apr 28 09:08:57 only at startup it shows logo and login and then display switches off Apr 28 09:09:26 why this is happening.. Do i need to upload an either image in BBB Apr 28 09:10:16 i Did cat /proc/cmdline i shows no option of video= there Apr 28 09:10:45 any one here? Apr 28 09:14:50 no, we all went out for lunch Apr 28 09:15:01 the others are busy with sleeping Apr 28 09:15:14 some might be procasturbating in the back Apr 28 09:15:58 did you connect a serial interface to the debugg port and watched what's happening during boot? Apr 28 09:16:26 yes ssh is fine working Apr 28 09:16:47 not ssh Apr 28 09:16:50 console Apr 28 09:16:54 then? Apr 28 09:17:00 the thing that works before even the kernel is loaded Apr 28 09:17:15 nothing is displaying there Apr 28 09:17:30 i dont mean the HDMI interface either Apr 28 09:17:35 BBB is not a PC Apr 28 09:17:49 then how to debug? Apr 28 09:17:54 get a usb-serial cable and connect it to the serial port Apr 28 09:18:05 waity Apr 28 09:18:07 descriptions how to do that are found using google Apr 28 09:18:09 *wait Apr 28 09:18:23 * KotH does not wait for no-one. not even death. Apr 28 09:18:43 Ok. Apr 28 09:19:28 Well i am connected it to ssh Apr 28 09:19:38 can we debug some thing here? Apr 28 09:21:32 serial != ssh Apr 28 09:22:14 you need much more unix knowledge to debug this kind of stuff without knowing what's going on during startup Apr 28 09:22:41 Okk.. Apr 28 09:51:50 i got screen over the HDMI port Apr 28 09:52:21 but there coming 2 option mpd ,xuser Apr 28 09:52:34 both requires password.. Apr 28 09:52:43 with ssh it do not need any passwword Apr 28 09:52:51 what to do??? Apr 28 09:55:08 you should still need a password with ssh. it's the same password for xServer as ssh Apr 28 09:57:42 If there's no password set then set one, reboot, and then try Apr 28 09:59:38 you might be able to use "ssh -X ..." flag to use the X11 forwarding Apr 28 10:04:12 My display gone again Apr 28 10:04:18 same is happenning again Apr 28 10:04:34 cat /proc/cmdline resutls console=ttyO0,115200n8 run_hardware_tests quiet root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 ro rootfstype=ext4 rootwait Apr 28 10:14:07 hello plz help,i need to upgrade uboot and ubl,while updating firmware,how it can be done.plz help Apr 28 10:24:56 we need to know what device and OS you're using Apr 28 10:29:54 i am using dm365 and 2.6 Apr 28 10:30:45 sorry, we dont do dm365 here Apr 28 10:31:37 ok,sorry. Apr 28 10:36:42 I am getting these errors when trying startx.. from ssh Apr 28 10:36:43 http://bpaste.net/show/P6fyvcY81FmTeAt78Hky/ Apr 28 10:39:46 please help Apr 28 10:39:50 what to do Apr 28 11:21:08 well you can't startx over ssh cause it's a different protocal. But you're missing modules. You might just be able to install them, or you may need to try a different kernel. I don't know Apr 28 11:21:49 you can startx via ssh if you used "ssh -X $host" Apr 28 11:21:55 its just super slow :) Apr 28 11:22:23 Is that if you're already ssh'd into it? Apr 28 11:22:24 and will cause chaos with the running X session on the host Apr 28 11:22:36 but technically it is possible Apr 28 11:25:31 Hi all i am trying to install qt in BBB Apr 28 11:25:54 i tried opkg install qt4-embedded --force-depends Apr 28 11:40:38 "/sys/class/gpio/gpio22/value: Unable to open? No such file or directory" Apr 28 11:41:30 nanu: failed to understand question - no context given - not parseable. Apr 28 11:41:49 wait Apr 28 11:42:13 if i do "echo 22 > /sys/class/gpio/export" i get "-bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy" Apr 28 11:42:42 can you explain me why? Apr 28 11:44:33 nanu: well the pin is in use for hdmi. Apr 28 11:44:39 -> http://eskimon.fr/beaglebone-black-gpio-interactive-map Apr 28 11:49:18 okey Apr 28 11:49:36 in my uEnv.txt i have the option Apr 28 11:49:39 optargs=capemgr.disable_partno=BB-BONELT-HDMI,BB-BONELT-HDMIN,BB-BONE-EMMC-2G Apr 28 11:51:10 and you are right Apr 28 11:51:20 cat /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slots Apr 28 11:51:39 gives 5: ff:P-O-L Bone-Black-HDMI,00A0,Texas Instrument,BB-BONELT-HDMI Apr 28 11:53:57 or no Apr 28 11:54:05 it is disabled Apr 28 12:02:13 reboot did the trick Apr 28 12:48:10 hello sir,i a have connected beaglebone black to internet through usb. I want to install lamp on it,i didint find which wrks to install Apache. Can u help me in it? Apr 28 12:49:10 opkg install apache2 doesn't work Apr 28 12:49:40 maybe it's called differently? Apr 28 12:50:29 apt-get install apache2 Apr 28 12:50:34 ? Apr 28 12:51:16 no i cnt use apt-get .. for angstrom opkg should be used Apr 28 12:53:11 I'm sure i used apt-get, only used opkg to install local packages Apr 28 12:59:03 i tried apt-get, it shows error that unknown command apt-get Apr 28 13:01:45 i followed this link too http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/http.apache Apr 28 13:01:57 but this also doent work Apr 28 13:03:50 well.. it might be the case that angström is not openwrt Apr 28 13:04:07 maybe you should google for "angström apache" Apr 28 13:04:13 ^^^^ Apr 28 13:33:16 Anyone know what the total max forward voltage is for the usb port? Apr 28 14:18:34 Hi, I have very interesting discussion: My beaglebone black does not see sd card suddenly, I mean /dev/mmcblk1 not appearing when in. And u-boot says"Card did not respond to voltage select!" could this be a hardware problem? Apr 28 14:54:55 monoxide_13: max voltage and current for any USB2.0 port in powered mode is 5V +- 0.15V at 500mA Apr 28 14:55:04 monoxide_13: non powered is at 100mA Apr 28 16:13:16 Embedded Linux Conf tomorrow ^_^ Apr 28 16:13:52 * tbr grumbles something into his non-existent beard Apr 28 16:14:28 * nyt- yawns Apr 28 16:14:29 morning Apr 28 16:21:47 anyone compiled RobertCNelson's kernel? I ran his linux-dev/build_mainline.sh Apr 28 16:22:20 which created 3.15.0-rc3-armv7-devel-r32-dtbs.tar.gz Apr 28 16:22:34 not sure where that should be deployed to Apr 28 16:28:01 yes. but not the test kernels Apr 28 16:28:10 3.8 is the production kernel Apr 28 16:28:37 the dtbs are deployed in /lib/firmware Apr 28 16:28:41 and a few i believe in uboot possibly Apr 28 16:30:04 nyt-: ah, ok... i was confused cus i only saw dtbo files in /lib/firmware not dtb Apr 28 16:31:32 well the compiled versions go there Apr 28 16:32:33 oh, ok. i was wondering if i need to 'compile' the .dtb files Apr 28 16:33:04 dtb are compiled Apr 28 16:33:10 the s ones are not Apr 28 16:33:24 ah, thanks. Apr 28 16:33:47 the build mainline produced: Apr 28 16:33:53 root@beaglebone:~/linux-dev/deploy# ls -latr *rc3* Apr 28 16:33:54 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4670432 Apr 28 03:34 3.15.0-rc3-armv7-devel-r32.zImage Apr 28 16:33:54 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 110388 Apr 28 03:34 config-3.15.0-rc3-armv7-devel-r32 Apr 28 16:33:54 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 712202 Apr 28 03:34 3.15.0-rc3-armv7-devel-r32-modules.tar.gz Apr 28 16:33:57 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1220562 Apr 28 03:34 3.15.0-rc3-armv7-devel-r32-firmware.tar.gz Apr 28 16:34:00 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 878237 Apr 28 03:35 3.15.0-rc3-armv7-devel-r32-dtbs.tar.gz Apr 28 16:34:09 so hopefully i just need to expand those into the right directories Apr 28 16:34:10 firmware.tar may have the .dtb files you need Apr 28 19:58:52 Hello guys, I got a problem with Beaglebone Black using the PWM. The QUESTION is: I cannot find the file ( , , , ), when I was check the list of ocp.2/pwm_test_P8_13.”14” Apr 28 19:59:58 make sure the proper dtbs are loaded Apr 28 20:00:14 I would like to test the servo control with Beagelbone Black as the tutrial show(http://digital-drive.com/?p=136) Apr 28 20:03:30 hi everyone Apr 28 20:03:49 do you mean building the Device Tree Overlay? as the tutorial of Derrek Molly on the Youtube? Apr 28 20:04:33 i mean loading it Apr 28 20:04:36 what dist are you using Apr 28 20:04:42 and what trees did you load via cape manager? Apr 28 20:05:08 you might want to consider using a library that supports this io stuff and does the lifting for you Apr 28 20:05:16 e.g. https://github.com/notnyt/beaglebone Apr 28 20:08:11 I am not sure about which dist were I used? I just know I used the Linux ubuntu 3.8.13-bone20 Apr 28 20:08:45 has anyone installed mono on a debian distro on the BBB? Apr 28 20:10:29 and How can I check what trees I load via that manager? sorry, I am new one on that, just wanna complete the project, it is so complex for me. Apr 28 20:11:51 if you loaded them, you should know. you simply read the file you wrote the tree names to Apr 28 20:12:01 like i said though, consider using a library Apr 28 20:12:04 either the ruby one i linked Apr 28 20:12:06 or the python one Apr 28 20:12:09 or bonescript Apr 28 20:13:02 I link the python I think, I did them as "https://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-io-python-library-on-beaglebone-black/installation-on-ubuntu" tutorial. Apr 28 20:13:31 if you're using the library why are you trying to access the sys files directly Apr 28 20:15:59 wait moment let me think to answer you......so you mean I should got to the python library to do something or ...... Apr 28 20:20:03 If you I do something using #python, and write some to setup the PWM as "import Adafruit_BBIO.PWM as PWM", and then "PWM.start("P8_13", 50, 1000, 1) ", it will show IOError: [Errno 13] Permission defined: `/sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slts` Apr 28 20:20:28 you need to run it as root Apr 28 20:20:29 use sudo Apr 28 20:20:30 as the docs say Apr 28 20:20:41 https://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-io-python-library-on-beaglebone-black/installation-on-ubuntu Apr 28 20:20:43 see the big red block Apr 28 20:20:48 right at the top of the link you pasted Apr 28 20:21:13 if running it as root Apr 28 20:21:17 seems there is an error in the library Apr 28 20:21:20 as it shoudl be slots, not slts Apr 28 20:21:41 in which case, either update the library, or use something that isn't broken Apr 28 20:21:44 https://github.com/notnyt/beaglebone Apr 28 20:22:17 If I do that thing as root, it will show RuntimeError: You must start() the PWM channel first. Apr 28 20:23:09 you must run it as root Apr 28 20:24:48 oh I see, but when I run it as root, it show must start() the PWM channel first. I think I have already done this step, is that steps ("import Adafruit_BBIO.PWM as PWM", and then "PWM.start("P8_13", 50, 1000, 1) ")??? Apr 28 20:25:31

seems there is an error in the library Apr 28 20:25:32

as it shoudl be slots, not slts Apr 28 20:25:33

in which case, either update the library, or use something that isn't broken Apr 28 20:25:33

https://github.com/notnyt/beaglebone Apr 28 20:25:43 Well you suggest me to use the ruby? Apr 28 20:25:54 you can either update the python library Apr 28 20:25:58 you can do so using pip I believe Apr 28 20:26:05 or use something different if its still broken after updating Apr 28 20:28:48 let me try, because at morning I have a same problem with that, the kindly person same to you, suggest me to try ...blablabla | blablabal sorry for that, it just has a little help but did not work well, so I am still confusing with that. By the way, thank your suggestion. Apr 28 20:38:29 Sorry again, I just did the first step to install ruby, and finish that, to use the sudo gem install beaglebone, it show command not found. And I try to install gem(sudo apt-get install gem), when it done, it still has that problme: command not found. Apr 28 20:41:43 try installing rubygems Apr 28 20:41:50 youre also using an old image Apr 28 20:41:53 you might want to update Apr 28 20:41:56 http://beagleboard.org/latest-images Apr 28 20:45:34 hi guys Apr 28 20:45:40 eh.....OK, Actually, I am student for the final project with Beaglebone Black, and My project is relate about tracking face or facial recongnition something like that (Using pan/tilt brach), Before I did that, I saw a lot of information about using the Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS. About your suggestion ,to use the latest image is that mean to change the Angstrom dist? Apr 28 20:46:01 yes, use debian, it's the current official image Apr 28 20:46:10 Somebody here still uses the beaglebone white? Apr 28 20:46:33 I am facing some trouble with it so I need a bit of help... Apr 28 20:47:56 Somebody here successfully got mcasp device driver to work on kernel 3.8.13? Apr 28 20:48:54 sorry for disturbing you, victorsantos. About my question, is no way to fix that? (nyt-)?? Apr 28 20:50:25 Hi IanMu, what interfaces you will need in this project? Apr 28 20:50:34 SPI? I2C? Apr 28 20:51:01 ubuntu is bloatware for most ARM boards .. save perhaps the imx6quad :D Apr 28 20:51:16 IanMu: install the latest debian image Apr 28 20:51:23 http://beagleboard.org/latest-images Apr 28 20:51:26 How much difference would it make to use Ubuntu image instead of Debian, or even Arch on BeagleBone based systems? Apr 28 20:51:43 ubuntu is loosely based on debian Apr 28 20:51:49 package management is identical Apr 28 20:51:57 except for bloating the system, I mean Apr 28 20:52:12 I think there is an arch and a gentoo image .. Apr 28 20:52:13 Arch is a really pain in the ass to set up, for faster development I would take debian or ubuntu Apr 28 20:52:13 the debian image is the one being developed Apr 28 20:52:17 just use it Apr 28 20:52:18 and given that we would be running them headless most of the time Apr 28 20:52:25 debian is good :) Apr 28 20:52:44 or .. adequate .. I should say lol Apr 28 20:53:01 the hard-core will go for arch/gentoo and cross-compile just the required bits :D Apr 28 20:53:04 Guys, someone here working with the white bone yet? Apr 28 20:53:17 the cpu is the same as other beagles no victorsantos? Apr 28 20:53:35 its Sitara AM3359 I guess Apr 28 20:53:39 revision A3 Apr 28 20:54:07 when is the next test image of Debian on the BBB going to be out? Apr 28 20:54:13 It is so hard to find anyone working with it because the black bone is cheaper and better performance Apr 28 20:54:18 Last one was on 23rd April Apr 28 20:54:46 I am facing problems in trying to set up McASP device driver to work Apr 28 20:54:50 victorsantos .. the software should be the same Apr 28 20:55:08 23rd april 2014? I'd say that was .. err .. Last week?! :p Apr 28 20:55:20 Abhishek_: hasn't been many changes since, don't knwo what you're waiting for Apr 28 20:56:16 nope, just wanted to know if there is a new version upcoming in the next few days. Apr 28 20:56:31 I got the device showep up in /dev, and when I enter with aplay -l command it shows up a device called DA830 Apr 28 20:57:06 but I have some doubts related to the McASP clock Apr 28 20:57:50 I need it as a master device, to send PCM clock to a CODEC, but when I play some audio or even testing it, I can't get any clock signal in aclk pin Apr 28 20:57:53 is this right? Apr 28 20:58:07 Abhishek_: i dont think so, rcn is traveling Apr 28 20:59:13 It's my first time with audio development on linux, and it's a bit hard to find some interesting info about this step Apr 28 20:59:58 someone here is using kernel 3.8 or all of you are working with 3.2/old based kernel? Apr 28 21:00:18 lots have moved to 3.12+ victorsantos Apr 28 21:00:35 using 3.8 with latest debian build here Apr 28 21:00:36 maybe running away from device tree? lol Apr 28 21:00:58 nyt, do you know how to setup mcasp to work with TDM? Apr 28 21:01:09 havent used mcasp Apr 28 21:01:21 only have bbb Apr 28 21:01:45 bbb uses mcasp too, I will take one in the next week to test Apr 28 21:01:55 victorsantos .. you've done the pinmuxes, yes? Apr 28 21:02:02 yes Apr 28 21:02:33 I got some dts in google called BB-BONE-AUDI-01.dts something like this Apr 28 21:02:40 victorsantos .. http://e2e.ti.com/support/arm/sitara_arm/f/791/t/194645.aspx any use? Apr 28 21:02:48 with the pinmuxes and pinctrl descriptions Apr 28 21:03:24 that looks a lot over my head right now lol Apr 28 21:03:58 lol Apr 28 21:04:48 I will take a break to read this discussion about McASP you sent veremit Apr 28 21:05:53 what are you using the TDM bus for? Apr 28 21:07:14 I need to make a product for my company, a FXS-VoIP gateway, and I need to talk with a Silicon Labs Codec Si3226x, so the interfaces I need to set up are SPI and McASP to treat the pcm side of CODEC Apr 28 21:07:19 got it? Apr 28 21:07:32 how many channels is the Si3226x? Apr 28 21:08:08 I have another question, how many channels this Sitara could offer? Apr 28 21:08:23 I need something around 16 channels at least Apr 28 21:08:47 wow Apr 28 21:08:53 that makes it a little harder to do the Linux end of things Apr 28 21:09:06 not sure if ALSA supports a single device with 16 or more channels Apr 28 21:09:26 I could work with less channels Apr 28 21:09:27 16... you must be taking to a E1? Apr 28 21:09:36 or a T1? Apr 28 21:09:45 no no, it is FXS Apr 28 21:09:53 analog telephones Apr 28 21:10:04 t1 would be 24 :) Apr 28 21:10:39 anybody have SGX working? Apr 28 21:10:46 If I have at least 4 FXS interfaces working it would be awesome Apr 28 21:10:48 if you use all 24 for it Apr 28 21:11:00 just to prove a concept Apr 28 21:11:01 got it? Apr 28 21:11:02 you don't have to use all 24 or 32 slots for voice Apr 28 21:12:02 I will have to do the same project for E1 lines later Apr 28 21:12:15 but for now I need to set this up to work with some FXS lines Apr 28 21:12:25 docs claim it can do up to 32 slots Apr 28 21:12:53 yep, I guess this is good enough to my application Apr 28 21:12:57 why is 3d acceleration advertised, but no support? Apr 28 21:13:09 do you plan to run the codecs on the cortex? Apr 28 21:13:19 or just 711 straight out the networkside? Apr 28 21:13:24 Just G.711 Apr 28 21:13:44 bmatusiak__ .. TI are not renowned for their 'support' Apr 28 21:13:45 I am planning to use some SIP stack like Sophia Apr 28 21:13:54 interesting projecting Apr 28 21:13:55 libsofia Apr 28 21:14:08 looked at something like this a decade ago Apr 28 21:14:24 lol Apr 28 21:14:30 3D accel works just fine Apr 28 21:14:33 use an appropraite kernel Apr 28 21:15:10 at that time I was looking at using QSLICs from AMD Apr 28 21:15:11 I just don't know which kernel has better support (i.e I will have faster development and more support) to develop Apr 28 21:15:28 veremit: lol then why advertised it? lol Apr 28 21:15:33 My planning is to setup the device drivers quickly to start the job Apr 28 21:15:45 do someone of you could give a clue? Apr 28 21:15:52 bmatusiak__ .. marketing :p Apr 28 21:16:04 bmatusiak__: well that makes me wana pee on my BBB Apr 28 21:16:05 lol .. try ds2's solution .. an appropriate kernel Apr 28 21:16:30 veremit: link me if you could Apr 28 21:16:34 I believe there was a new BSP or whatever they call it .. shoulda shone some light on it Apr 28 21:16:49 ds2 .. any tips? Apr 28 21:17:27 all my arm boards are headless Apr 28 21:17:38 if I want fancy graphics .. I'd probably use the Pi (puke) lolz Apr 28 21:17:59 although I bet it doesn't do 3D either ... Apr 28 21:18:02 hehe Apr 28 21:18:03 tips? Apr 28 21:18:16 the docs for these silabs slics are locked down Apr 28 21:18:22 so no idea on them Apr 28 21:18:32 3d accel ds2 Apr 28 21:18:43 is it the vpu on this chip? I get my ARMs mixed up :( Apr 28 21:18:53 the Silicon Labs side its easy to work Apr 28 21:19:09 I have some expertise on it, we just finished a project using it on my company Apr 28 21:19:43 All that I need is to setup up something to treat PCM side and to generate PCM clock on the bone Apr 28 21:20:09 for one thing, avoid the DT kernels Apr 28 21:20:19 DT? Apr 28 21:20:22 device tree Apr 28 21:20:30 ah, got it Apr 28 21:20:34 I am using one at this moment Apr 28 21:20:37 victorsanots: do they really have the ring voltage generators on the chip? Apr 28 21:21:12 i see you're back device tree hating again Apr 28 21:21:18 the FXS we used uses a pmos to generate its working voltage Apr 28 21:21:43 but it is a slave in respect of clock needing Apr 28 21:21:58 nyt-: go fix it for him. Apr 28 21:22:07 it needs a master clock to get CoDEC to work Apr 28 21:22:49 victorsantos: that's a nice part... it was annoying figuring a way to generate the ring voltage and meet spec Apr 28 21:25:35 where I can found some tutorial or something to start my work again with an old kernel (3.2/older) ? Apr 28 21:25:55 no prebuild ones, I like to compile my things ;) Apr 28 21:28:44 there is a lot of readings talking about set up spi and mcasp on kernels with device tree support, It is hard to find something working in the older kernels Apr 28 21:29:58 dunno bout pinmux kernels, but spi just works with dtb kernels Apr 28 21:30:29 I got spi working like a charm, spidev1.0 and 1.1 Apr 28 21:30:31 piece of cake Apr 28 21:30:42 this mcasp that is a pain in the ass Apr 28 21:30:52 spi works fine in every kernel I have used Apr 28 21:31:01 donno what problems people are having Apr 28 21:31:18 the problem with DT kernels is having to deal with porting 234980294238904238094823094823094 different drivers Apr 28 21:31:29 whats pissing me off with dt Apr 28 21:31:33 is that its not finished yet Apr 28 21:31:42 e.g. can't change pullup/pulldown modes on gpio pins yet Apr 28 21:31:49 it is easier and quicker to backport a DT driver to my kernel. Apr 28 21:31:53 adc driver has no constant polling support Apr 28 21:32:17 nyt-: hmmm? the version of DT I have seen allows that. it is just a major PITA to do that Apr 28 21:32:23 ALL hte ADC drivers are F'ed Apr 28 21:32:25 which Apr 28 21:32:28 well Apr 28 21:32:29 someone has a link where I can use to restart my work? Apr 28 21:32:38 had to write my own ADC driver Apr 28 21:32:39
