Sep 26 03:18:35 <rcn-ee> adam_, there's a hint in /etc/network/interfaces on how to fix that..
Sep 26 03:18:52 <adam_> yeah I figured it out.
Sep 26 03:19:04 <adam_> thanks
Sep 26 03:29:04 <adam_> Is there a package list of what's included in the angstrom image?
Sep 26 03:30:18 <rcn-ee> opkg list-installed
Sep 26 03:31:01 <adam_> ok, not familiar with opkg... use to apt and yum
Sep 26 03:32:19 <adam_> do you know if ssh is on by default?
Sep 26 03:33:30 <rcn-ee> i think they used dropbear for ssh client... haven't really looked into angstrom in years..
Sep 26 03:34:11 <rcn-ee> just use the debian/ubuntu image for your xm, openssh-server is installed and enabled by default.
Sep 26 03:42:53 <adam_> ok thanks, I got ubuntu up an running in no time.  I am / was pretty familiar with the distro.
Sep 26 03:45:05 <adam_> use to run a MythTV server and 2 nodes for playback, and had it on a laptop for years.
Sep 26 03:46:08 <adam_> thanks for the help, it's bed time.
Sep 26 05:10:46 <jdw1138> is it possible to power the beaglebone black from a USB connection to my plugged in laptop and connect the BBB to a monitor via an HDMI cable?
Sep 26 05:11:32 <jdw1138> I saw the initial splash screen then the monitor went black
Sep 26 05:15:18 <jdw1138> hello?
Sep 26 05:16:20 <tbr> jdw1138: which software are you running on the device?
Sep 26 05:35:55 <jdw1138> tbr: native image that came pre installed
Sep 26 05:42:07 <tbr> jdw1138: should work, but if your port doesn't supply enough power it might as well fail
Sep 26 05:42:38 <tbr> jdw1138: how do the LEDs behave after the screen goes dark?
Sep 26 05:42:49 <tbr> can you still ssh into the board?
Sep 26 05:44:30 <jdw1138> the onboard web interface was active.
Sep 26 05:45:21 <tbr> then SSH in and look at dmesg
Sep 26 05:45:32 <tbr> that might give you a hint why the screen goes dark
Sep 26 05:50:10 <jdw1138> perusing the dmesg now... thanks for the tip
Sep 26 06:56:20 <ani_> I am trying to connect bbb to tv, tv does not detect it as mass storage but my computer does
Sep 26 06:56:50 <av500> bad tv
Sep 26 06:56:56 <ani_> can anyone explain the procedure to do so
Sep 26 06:57:07 <av500> tv might be confused because its multifunction
Sep 26 06:57:13 <av500> mass storage and ethernet
Sep 26 06:57:32 <ani_> how to disable usb net on bbb
Sep 26 06:58:17 <ani_> thanks av but other usb devices are detected
Sep 26 06:59:36 <av500> like?
Sep 26 07:00:15 <ani_> Flash drives
Sep 26 07:00:41 <av500> yes, these are mass storage only
Sep 26 07:00:52 <av500> not ehternet as well
Sep 26 07:04:01 <ani_> is there any way to enable mass storage mode only and disable ethrnet over usb?
Sep 26 07:05:56 <ani_> If any one knows please send me the links over email aniruddha.more@mobilewaretech.com
Sep 26 07:06:22 <ani_> thanks in advance :)
Sep 26 07:08:09 <KotH> ani_: it'll take you abould half an hour to an hour of googling to figure that out yourself
Sep 26 07:08:18 <KotH> ani_: hint: it's all software
Sep 26 07:08:32 <KotH> ani_: hint #2: usb gaget
Sep 26 07:08:37 <ani_> hmm
Sep 26 07:08:45 <ani_> thanks KotH
Sep 26 09:12:40 <Cyr1l> hi guys !
Sep 26 09:13:08 <Cyr1l> are there any people here developping on the BeagleBone Blakc with the Code Cmposer Studio by Ti ?
Sep 26 09:13:22 <av500> few
Sep 26 09:13:51 <mrpackethead> gahh, CCS
Sep 26 09:14:00 <mrpackethead> But not for beaglebone
Sep 26 09:14:18 <KotH> mrpackethead: speaking bad about Ti, are we?
Sep 26 09:14:29 <mrpackethead> no..
Sep 26 09:14:36 <mrpackethead> actually TI are in my good books
Sep 26 09:14:46 <KotH> burn those books
Sep 26 09:14:48 <mrpackethead> but my head is spinning
Sep 26 09:14:55 <KotH> drunk too much?
Sep 26 09:15:27 <mrpackethead> Im doing my first ever >1Ghz transmission line on a pcb
Sep 26 09:15:36 <mrpackethead> and using chip antennas and the like
Sep 26 09:15:49 <mrpackethead> and its been a long time since i did this math!
Sep 26 09:16:51 <Cyr1l> I actualy had a quite newbie question
Sep 26 09:17:42 <Cyr1l> I'm trying to build a very basic HelloWorld project on the BBB using CCS with an RSE
Sep 26 09:18:09 <av500> RSE?
Sep 26 09:18:15 <Cyr1l> unfortunately, when I execute it on the BBB, I get the output "Illegal Instruction"
Sep 26 09:18:46 <Cyr1l> Remote System Explorer
Sep 26 09:19:02 <Cyr1l> any idea on what could cause this ?
Sep 26 09:19:25 <av500> something wrong
Sep 26 09:19:29 <av500> wrong toolchain or so
Sep 26 09:19:41 <av500> can you run it in gdb?
Sep 26 09:21:15 <Cyr1l> I'm trying tht
Sep 26 09:21:19 <Cyr1l> that*
Sep 26 09:42:25 <Cyr1l> hum
Sep 26 09:42:54 <Cyr1l> there seems to be a problem in a file cale startup_ARMCA8.S
Sep 26 09:43:32 <Cyr1l> gdb blocks at a lne where the instruction is "MCR p15, 0, r0, c12, c0, 0     @ Write VBAR Register"
Sep 26 09:43:49 <av500> http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/p/361287/1268876.aspx
Sep 26 09:43:54 <av500> read that
Sep 26 09:45:19 <Cyr1l> thank you av500 :)
Sep 26 09:47:16 <av500> thank Larry and Sergey
Sep 26 09:48:19 <Cyr1l> ?
Sep 26 09:48:39 <av500> https://www.google.com/search?q=larry+and+sergey
Sep 26 09:49:40 <Cyr1l> oh*
Sep 26 09:50:44 <Cyr1l> even better : http://lmgtfy.com/
Sep 26 11:31:57 <tobi123> hi, i cant find my uEnv.txt file on my beaglebone black. do i have to mount any particle file system ?
Sep 26 11:32:25 <tobi123> there is one located in /boot/ but no one in /boot/uboot/
Sep 26 11:32:50 <tobi123> i have ubuntu 14.04 runnig on bbb
Sep 26 11:38:53 <tbr> tobi123: it's on the FAT32 filesystem usually
Sep 26 11:46:18 <tobi123> there is only a nfs-eEnv.txt file
Sep 26 11:46:34 <tobi123> do i have to mount the u-boot.img ?
Sep 26 11:47:43 <tbr> that's probably u-boot itself
Sep 26 11:48:41 <tobi123> can i pastebin you my "fdisk -l", not sure if i mount the right filesystem
Sep 26 11:50:34 <tobi123> http://pastebin.com/j8jgLxbg
Sep 26 11:57:15 <tobi123> i also missing my boot.scr file
Sep 26 12:08:35 <tobi123> if boot.scr is missing, can i create my own? i like to edit the kernel command line params to boot to tty2.
Sep 26 12:13:09 <av500> sure you can
Sep 26 12:13:19 <av500> but boot.scr is obsolete
Sep 26 12:13:30 <av500> try uEnv.txt
Sep 26 12:15:06 <tobi123> i do have e uEnv.txt in /boot/ but where can i find the uEnv.txt where the kernel commands a specified?
Sep 26 12:18:22 <av500> right there
Sep 26 12:18:36 <av500> or in the root folder
Sep 26 12:21:01 <tobi123> so if no tty is specified the kernel uses tty1 as default ?
Sep 26 12:33:20 <av500> there is a default command line compiled into uboot
Sep 26 12:33:23 <av500> that gets used
Sep 26 12:33:35 <av500> if you dont tell the kernel a console, there will be none
Sep 26 12:41:57 <tobi123> thanks av500
Sep 26 13:21:53 <tobi123> is it possible to show a image while the bbb is booting till the xserver is up? i tryed to configure plymounth but it is not working.
Sep 26 13:31:34 <av500> tobi123: it is possible of course, since its "just" SW
Sep 26 13:31:40 <av500> I have no idea how
Sep 26 13:31:47 <av500> is there a /dev/fb?
Sep 26 13:37:10 <tobi123> year, in the moment i try ti install fbv to write a image in the framebuffer
Sep 26 14:59:30 <libregeekingkid> HELP
Sep 26 15:00:10 <libregeekingkid> Can't boot b^3 with ubuntu 14.04 on sd card
Sep 26 15:07:23 <libregeekingkid> help
Sep 26 17:25:28 <SmokeyD> hey all. I am new to nodejs and cloud9 for my beaglebone. Is there a way to view webppages on my beaglebone that use javascript that I developped in cloud9/nodejs on my beaglebone black?
Sep 26 17:25:47 <SmokeyD> Do I need to host them manually with apache or something, or does nodejs/cloud9 allow me to do it
Sep 26 18:14:13 <SmokeyD> hey all, I am reading the 1.5V from a voltage divider with AIN5, both using bash, and in bonescript, and I am getting weird results
Sep 26 18:15:45 <_av500_> like?
Sep 26 18:17:40 <SmokeyD> I using my multimeter to monitor simultanously, and it gives me a steady voltage, but AIN5 first gives a voltage close to 1.6V but often the voltage reading drops to 100mV or 200mV
Sep 26 18:19:19 <gurki> looks like u drain ur input
Sep 26 18:20:39 <gurki> use an impedance converter. can be built using a transistor.
Sep 26 18:21:56 <tbr> also I found it sensible to discard the first value read from the ADC, most of the time it's stale
Sep 26 18:22:17 <gurki> ^
Sep 26 18:28:25 <SmokeyD> gurki: sorry, I didn't understand that. Can't I use the ADC to read the voltage from a voltage divider?
Sep 26 18:29:44 <gurki> sure i can. but like i said ^^^
Sep 26 18:29:49 <gurki> u*
Sep 26 18:30:02 <loans> impedance matching is a subtle art
Sep 26 18:30:12 <gurki> ^
Sep 26 18:30:21 <loans> ask any audio guy
Sep 26 18:30:35 <SmokeyD> ok, I guess i am too much of a n00b
Sep 26 18:30:43 <SmokeyD> I am definitely not an audio guy
Sep 26 18:30:45 <loans> SmokeyD: what you'll find is that the impedance of that input pin is some value, if your voltage divider isn't similar then weird stuff happens
Sep 26 18:30:59 <loans> (i can't tell you the value offhand - on an atmel avr i think it's around 10kOhms)
Sep 26 18:31:02 <gurki> like i stated. build urselve an impedance converter
Sep 26 18:31:12 <gurki> for the things u seem to do its not exactly rocket science
Sep 26 18:31:45 <loans> SmokeyD: the wiki article is dense but it may be useful to read through it, or skimming at least: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_impedance
Sep 26 18:31:50 <SmokeyD> yes, but I don't know what an impedance converter is, and I didn't know I needed one, and I needed to match anyting. I just though the ADC was something you could measure voltages with in this case a max of 1.8V
Sep 26 18:32:40 <loans> more pursuant to your current situation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_matching
Sep 26 18:33:33 <SmokeyD> does the remark in many articles on using the BBB ADC that the lower resistor (leading to ground) in the voltage divider should be <=1kOhm have anything to do with this?
Sep 26 18:39:42 <gurki> obv yes
Sep 26 18:39:48 <gurki> =]
Sep 26 19:02:13 <SmokeyD> ok, to me it is not obvious as I am still learning so I don't know the theory very well on ADC's. But if that helps, I do have a 1kOhm resistor in the lower leg of the voltage divider, and a 1.5kOhm resistor in the upper leg. The input voltage is around 4V (I am testing a draining battery, so it can vary).
Sep 26 19:04:25 <Zephyr1139> Anybody here with tips on connecting an HDMI 1920x1080 60Hz monitor to the BeagleBone Black?
Sep 26 19:04:39 <Zephyr1139> http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBone_Black_Accessories#Monitors_and_Resolutions
Sep 26 19:05:11 <Zephyr1139>  I see that the "Sharp Aquos TV Dell S244OL 1920 x 1080 @60HZ" is listed under "Supported Monitors"
Sep 26 19:07:50 <Zephyr1139> I get the initial splash screen for about 6 seconds then the monitor goes black.
Sep 26 19:11:50 <Zephyr1139> However I also see on http://www.elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_HDMI#Supported_Resolutions this:
Sep 26 19:11:59 <Zephyr1139> 1920x1080@24 (Audio)
Sep 26 19:12:17 <Zephyr1139> no 1920x1080@60
Sep 26 19:13:21 <rcn-ee> Zephyr1139, just not enough bw at the resolution..
Sep 26 19:15:14 <Zephyr1139> rcn-ee, is the bandwidth hardware limited by a chip on the BBB ?
Sep 26 19:16:47 <Zephyr1139> it seams as though the http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBone_Black_Accessories#Monitors_and_Resolutions section is missleading then.
Sep 26 19:16:55 <tbr> don't run it at 1080p60, run it at 720p
Sep 26 19:17:06 <rcn-ee> the am335x has a basic "lcd" controller.. you need to run it at 1920x1080@24
Sep 26 19:17:54 <rcn-ee> Zephyr1139, it's a wiki someone stuck that there, wrongly..
Sep 26 19:19:25 <Zephyr1139> I tried adding "video=HDMI-A-1:1280x720@60" to my /boot/uEnv.txt file.  Didn't help
Sep 26 19:20:05 <rcn-ee> Zephyr1139, change the "60" to "24"
Sep 26 19:20:22 <rcn-ee> or wait, now your 720p..

Sep 26 19:22:11 <rcn-ee> Zephyr1139,  add the extra "e" "video=HDMI-A-1:1280x720@60e"
Sep 26 19:24:17 <Zephyr1139> My monitors manual doesn't mention 720 by the way.
Sep 26 19:24:49 <Zephyr1139> rcn-ee, tried that... didn't work.
Sep 26 19:26:08 <Zephyr1139> rcn-ee, I did notice a terminal shell briefly when shutting down from the BBB's command line though.
Sep 26 19:30:21 <Zephyr1139> rcn-ee, calling init 3 gave me a screen though!
Sep 26 19:34:20 <Zephyr1139> rcn-ee, calling init 5 gave me the same black screen
Sep 26 19:35:04 <Zephyr1139> rcn-ee, what does the extra "e" mean?
Sep 26 19:35:24 <rcn-ee> the 'e' is a force enable...
Sep 26 19:36:01 <rcn-ee> sometimes it's a ground issue with the hdmi cable.. is your bbb plugged in to the same wall socket as the tv?
Sep 26 19:37:36 <Zephyr1139> I'm powering my bbb with the USB connection to my laptop. The monitor and laptop are both plugged into the same power strip
Sep 26 19:38:40 <Zephyr1139> I am using a samsung SD300 monitor
Sep 26 19:39:25 <Zephyr1139> should I purchase an external 5v power supply for the bbb?
Sep 26 19:39:51 <Zephyr1139> perhaps I'm underpowering the bbb.
Sep 26 19:40:42 <Zephyr1139> my micro HDMI cable is not ethernet enabled
Sep 26 19:45:49 <Zephyr1139> my micro HDMI cable is from GE
Sep 26 19:47:31 <gurki> yes you prob should.
Sep 26 19:56:13 <Zephyr1139> after init 3 I interacted with the monitor's UI it stated that I was using "HDMI 64.5kHz 60Hz NN 1680x1050"
Sep 26 19:57:20 <tbr> you can ofc try that
Sep 26 19:58:27 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: looking at u-boot for sunxi platforms, and they all seem to include config_distro_defaults.h and config_distro_bootcmd.h ... wondering if i shouldn't just patch u-boot for the BBB to use that...
Sep 26 19:58:53 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: that allows for crazy things like a single bootscript that will work on multiple boards...
Sep 26 19:59:08 <vagrantc> and push it upstream...
Sep 26 20:01:58 <rcn-ee> vagrantc, you should do that. ;) I've been using config_distro* on the A10/A20 lime and would like to head that direction too for all boards..
Sep 26 20:02:59 <rcn-ee> i know fedora has a few of those *.diff's laying around, i figured they would havent pushed them at some point..
Sep 26 20:03:02 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: ok. then i won't mess with your crazy patchset :)
Sep 26 20:03:28 <rcn-ee> don't worry, the "crazy" is just till config_distro* hits upstream! ;)
Sep 26 20:03:53 <vagrantc> heh
Sep 26 20:04:15 <rcn-ee> vagrantc, btw, you should take this 5 line part: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/Bootloader-Builder/blob/master/patches/v2014.10-rc2/0001-am335x_evm-uEnv.txt-bootz-n-fixes.patch#L22
Sep 26 20:04:31 <rcn-ee> i need to submit that mainline.. turns out we've been running the 1.35ddr3 at 1.5 for.... ever...
Sep 26 20:04:49 <rcn-ee> and this: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/Bootloader-Builder/blob/master/patches/v2014.10-rc2/0001-am335x_evm-uEnv.txt-bootz-n-fixes.patch#L352
Sep 26 20:05:25 <rcn-ee> and the kernel side: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/linux-dev/blob/master/patches/beaglebone/dts/0004-ARM-dts-am335x-boneblack-dcdc1-set-to-1.35v-for-ddr3.patch
Sep 26 20:06:20 <rcn-ee> jkridner, forgot to ask yesterday..did the "1.35v ddr3" fix help arduino-tre's emi?
Sep 26 20:07:28 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: the kernel stuff upstream anywhere?
Sep 26 20:07:33 <Zephyr1139> tbr, tried using "video=HDMI-A-1:1680x1050@60e" in my /boot/uEnv.txt file.  It didn't help.
Sep 26 20:08:18 <rcn-ee> vagrantc, i need to submit it.. we just figured that out 2 weeks ago, been testing it internally...
Sep 26 20:09:01 <rcn-ee> there is always that risk, if boards that have been running at 1.5v for over a year, might not run anymore..
Sep 26 20:09:09 <vagrantc> 1.5v, 1.35v, what's the big deal. :)
Sep 26 20:09:39 <rcn-ee> for 1.35ddr3 ;)
Sep 26 20:09:54 <rcn-ee> someone cloning the bbb, ran into that with other 'memory'...
Sep 26 20:10:41 <Zephyr1139> If I find a solution to my 19020x1080@60e problem I'll post it. Thanks for your help.
Sep 26 20:11:06 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: if you can get them moving upstream, i can probably get them into debian
Sep 26 20:13:46 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: though freeze is imminent
Sep 26 20:15:14 <rcn-ee> i couldn't wait. ;) I started my, "this is way to late for jessie" and needs *.deb package queue.. ;)
Sep 26 20:15:41 <rcn-ee> so far, i really like lxqt on armhf.. ;)
Sep 26 20:16:43 * vagrantc is in the "oh wow, better get all those fixes in i've been putting off" mode.
Sep 26 20:52:15 <vagrantc> adding config_distro_defaults.h is easy ... adding config_distro_bootcmd.h is a bit harder...
Sep 26 20:53:36 <rcn-ee> vagrantc, remember the "bbw" doesn't have a second mmc card.. so you always have to check the microSD first... ;)
Sep 26 21:00:36 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: i don't see a config for the bbw
Sep 26 21:00:49 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: does it just use the bbb build?
Sep 26 21:02:23 <rcn-ee> yeap, same *_config.. part of the config_distro_bootcmd is the order of interfaces, just make sure the microsd is first, then the bbw will be fine..
Sep 26 21:06:37 * vagrantc wonders about boot.scr.${fdtfile} being a sane option
Sep 26 21:06:59 <vagrantc> i guess the whole point of this is for a standardized boot script
Sep 26 21:09:22 <vagrantc> rcn-ee: may be the first issue, it may only support booting off a single MMC device
