**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jul 14 02:59:59 2014 Jul 14 09:16:27 has anyone ever tried to make a beagleboard with a dual core CPU? Jul 14 09:18:11 If you do that, you will have something more then small motherboard to learn/play with it. Jul 14 09:18:25 SudoerTaurus: TI just announced a cortex a9 sitara cpu. so it might be in existence one day. Jul 14 09:18:45 SudoerTaurus: if you just want a dualcore arm board, there plenty already. Jul 14 09:19:24 I know, I prefer the beaglebone's design. Jul 14 09:20:20 well making a dualcore board is not so much a question of board design, but of the cpu being multicore, or at least interconnectable. the first was just announced, the latter does not exist so far. Jul 14 09:20:30 I use BBB only last few days, and i'm happy what i get for now. Jul 14 09:20:30 (always speaking of the sitaras, of course.) Jul 14 09:22:26 It'll be cool if they make the cpu's faster as well Jul 14 09:22:54 (of the individual cores as well) Jul 14 09:23:19 I found my beaglebone felt quite speedy for 1GHz Jul 14 09:23:43 Look i would like to see one board with Intel Atom c2750, but for that we will need to pay much more. Jul 14 10:13:57 Hello, is it possible for the USB host of the beagle bone to get fried ? Jul 14 10:14:18 because it stopped working out of the blue Jul 14 10:14:33 I'm sure there are ways™ Jul 14 10:14:36 what did you do Jul 14 10:15:44 just connected the bbb to a power source other than USB. the motors and LED where working fine. then I powered off BBB and connected the camera. turn it on and that was it. the camera never turned on from the BBB or any other usb device Jul 14 10:16:17 the camera works fine on pc Jul 14 10:17:03 if i do lsusb it can see both hubs Jul 14 10:17:17 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Jul 14 10:19:19 Bonjour Jul 14 10:20:11 y'a personne?? Jul 14 10:23:21 nachit: don't ask to ask, just ask. and you've got a significantly better chance of getting an answer to an english question. Jul 14 10:26:59 and walking without rhythm will not wake Letothe2nd :-) Jul 14 10:28:20 he said motors... he might just have fried some power rail Jul 14 10:28:40 especially if missing protection diodes Jul 14 10:32:24 * Letothe2nd munches on XorA Jul 14 10:32:28 mhh time for lunch! Jul 14 10:32:47 bugger I knew I should have slimmed down :-) Jul 14 10:33:02 hrhr Jul 14 10:33:24 * XorA awakens his spare ghola Jul 14 10:35:07 hot spare or cold spare? ;) Jul 14 10:37:50 its always hot on Rakis :-) Jul 14 13:34:36 anyone know how to get hdmi audio working from console (no hdmi) do i have to manually set screen resolution to an audio enabled on in uEnv.txt? Jul 14 13:34:59 ugh (no hdmi) = (no x11) Jul 14 13:58:34 anyone able to get hdmi audio to work on console? Jul 14 14:38:00 hello everyone Jul 14 14:39:07 i cant flash eMMC BBB revB 2GIG with debian. can someone help me? Jul 14 14:39:50 what is your problem with that? Jul 14 14:41:44 i flash it. but look the same. how to check it is debian? Jul 14 14:57:29 cahit: what does `uname -a` say? Jul 14 15:00:35 ok i get it. it is debian. i forget to login with putty. uname -a say:Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-bone50 #1 SMP Tue May 13 13:24:52 UTC 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux Jul 14 15:01:42 but it is flashing very quickly... Jul 14 15:48:33 any one tried SYS-BIOS with B-Black? Jul 14 15:49:22 I need to use UARTs in Beaglebone black Jul 14 15:49:32 confused how to do it with real time application Jul 14 15:52:52 just like with any other application too. open /dev/ttyWhatever Jul 14 15:53:22 Letothe2nd: SYS-BIOS == NoOS Jul 14 15:53:26 or rather, RTOS Jul 14 15:53:38 so no /dev/tty Jul 14 15:53:46 av500: he said realtime application. Jul 14 15:53:59 and sysbios i declare as buzzword and dead Jul 14 15:54:05 ? Jul 14 15:54:34 or am i messing it up with something called similar, that was there before rpmsg? Jul 14 15:54:41 (+remoteproc) Jul 14 15:54:42 wrong Jul 14 15:55:13 SYSBIOS is the RTOS than ran e.g. in the DSP or the Ducati(panda) Jul 14 15:55:23 its a TI (RT)OS Jul 14 15:55:32 now a standalone product Jul 14 15:55:37 ok so maybe not dead but a buzzword :P Jul 14 15:55:48 well, things need a name Jul 14 15:58:27 looks like he/she first and foremost needs a better conenction. Jul 14 16:04:08 I have 4 BeagleBone Blacks. Three have stopped booting. I have been diligent to use the power button or shutdown -h now to shut them down. Have others experience this? What is the best way to try and recover? Jul 14 16:05:07 define "stopped booting" Jul 14 16:05:32 grab and SD card image from the website Jul 14 16:05:36 write to sd card Jul 14 16:05:48 insert and power up while holding the boot button Jul 14 16:09:15 Stopped booting here, means that I apply power from either a usb cable or 5V supply and the board does not respond. The power button (with power applied) does not cause a response nor the reset. I have connected to the J1 debug port after reviewing he available blogs and such but I only get jibberish, even from my only working board. That's another story. Jul 14 16:10:46 I have not yet been successfull in booting from the sdcard even on my working board. I'm still trying some things but it's a little disconcerting. Jul 14 16:11:46 get your working board to boot from SD Jul 14 16:11:52 The Distributions are Angstrom and Debian. Jul 14 16:11:53 then move on to the others Jul 14 16:11:57 either one Jul 14 16:12:03 use the non-flashing image Jul 14 16:15:49 I have done all the steps as carefully as I can to put an image on my 8GB SD card and boot my working BBB from it, yet to no avail. Is there more to it than downloading an xz image, decompressing it then using "dd" to write it to my sdcard? Should I be using a different util to write the image? I'm using a Mac. Jul 14 16:19:27 make sure you DD it to the raw device, NOT a partition on the card Jul 14 16:20:08 Yes, I unmounted the device prior to using dd. Jul 14 16:21:55 then it should "just" work, by inserting the card, holding down the button and then connecting power to the board Jul 14 16:21:55 I used the following to write the image. "sudo dd bs=1m if=Angstrom-Cloud9-IDE-GNOME-eglibc-ipk-v2012.12-beaglebone-2013.09.05.img of=/dev/disk4s1". Any steps after this I should be dong? Jul 14 16:22:22 errrrm /dev/disk4s1 looks like partition 1 on disk 4 Jul 14 16:22:27 what did I say? Jul 14 16:22:35 "NOT a partition on the card" Jul 14 16:22:47 I did exactly what you said tbr and after 30 sec of holding down the button there was no response. Jul 14 16:23:39 redo your SD card, you did it wrong. Jul 14 16:23:40 OK. I was not aware of that. Can you tell me how to determine the raw device other than using "mount" Jul 14 16:24:21 /dev/disk4 Jul 14 16:24:44 Ok thankyou I will try that!!! :) Jul 14 16:24:48 also UTFG: "os x raw disk device" Jul 14 16:27:27 I'm sorry, tbr, I do not understand your last line!? Jul 14 16:28:26 peruse the fine world wide web search engine of your least distrust with the search terms: "os x raw disk device" Jul 14 16:29:29 Thank you very much, tbr. Will do!! Jul 14 16:30:16 Is there a way, tbr, I can let you know my results? Jul 14 16:31:12 what results would you like to let me know about? Jul 14 16:37:49 tbr only if I succeed or not. If I do I won't ask for more help if I don't I'll be back. Thanks you've been very helpful!! Jul 14 16:51:27 cant get beagle to play audio out hdmi to monitor, have screen res set to 1024x768 which is proper video resolution for audio capability, anyone have any ideas? Jul 14 17:24:15 I'm trying to build debian for a bbb using rcn's image-builder system and I need the linuxfb. I'm building a testing system and I can't get the linuxfb. Anybody know if there is some special config that I need?

Jul 14 18:08:43 I've got a BBB running 3.8.13-bone47 with no obvious way to upgrade the kernel Jul 14 18:09:16 and also no obvious place to obtain the kernel headers so I could, for instance, build or rebuild kernel modules Jul 14 18:11:18 pjz: maybe https://www.debian.org/support#irc knows Jul 14 18:11:38 https://www.debian.org/ports/arm/ Jul 14 18:12:25 pjz: there is https://packages.debian.org/search?arch=arm64&keywords=kernel-image but not sure this one fit Jul 14 18:15:03 hmm, given that the kernel was built by the Beagleboard guys and is thus not generic, it seems unlikely debian will do it Jul 14 19:55:55 I am looking at the BBB SRM, and it says in the text to tie the address line of the 24C256 high, but the provided example has all address lines tied to ground, which is the right way to do this (that works?) Jul 14 20:55:25 cant seem to get audio to work out hdmi... does it make a difference if one uses 3.8 or 3.14? Jul 14 20:56:57 I've read that you have to use one of a few specific resolution settings for hdmi audio to work, but never followed up as we decided against the bbb as a basis for our next project Jul 14 20:59:26 im using the supposed resolution that works, and aplay acts like everything is ok and its playing a file , but not getting sound out, alsamixer shows no volume control for hdmi device even though it detects it Jul 14 21:30:52 http://www.element14.com/community/community/designcenter/single-board-computers/next-gen_beaglebone/blog/2013/05/28/bbb--audio-notes Jul 14 22:20:18 anyone have audio output to thier monitor working over hdmi?

Jul 14 22:53:25 woglinde's link implied it works but sound quality is poor Jul 14 22:55:39 you mean more recent than the official image? Jul 14 22:59:43 yep im running latest second will get specific Jul 14 23:00:30 Linux beaglebone 3.8.13 #1 SMP Wed Sep 4 09:09:32 CEST 2013 armv7l GNU/Linux Jul 14 23:00:30 root@beaglebone:~# Jul 14 23:01:34 i have a arch linux distro (latest) and ^ which is on emmc, both have same problems with hdmi audio Jul 14 23:07:57 anyone ever muck about with a koolertron touch screen and the beagle?
