**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Oct 11 03:00:00 2014 Oct 11 04:04:34 gave a brief read ... If I installed Ubuntu on the BEAGLEBONE, I could install a program that swirled some program to send G-codes to control a small CNC? That is, replace a computer that controls the CNC. Oct 11 08:33:45 hello Oct 11 08:35:20 any body? Oct 11 09:33:01 <_av500_> always Oct 11 13:09:52 Hi all Oct 11 13:22:33 I need your help guys, I flaseh Ubuntu 13.04 to my BBB and now It wont' Flash Oct 11 13:41:14 won't flash as in ? wdvalenz Oct 11 13:51:37 when I tried to boot the BBB with the SD card I was using on the classic BB the board remains locked up with the four user LEDs lit. The distribution on the SD card is Debian! Oct 11 13:55:11 flash it again, maybe you did something bad. also hook up a serial cable to it and see the output Oct 11 13:55:14 where it stops Oct 11 13:58:52 whe I kee the s2 pressed only the power led will blink Oct 11 13:59:17 when I keep the s2 pressed only the power button is on Oct 11 19:42:26 hi there... i got my rev c bbb but apparently the wired/real ethernet is broken Oct 11 19:42:54 it issues dhcp requests on eth0 according to itself, but i dont see anything in wireshark when i am connected directly to it Oct 11 19:43:35 also, ethtool (on my computer) tells me that the connection is hd 10mbps, which seems odd Oct 11 19:44:31 <_av500_> LEDs light up? Oct 11 19:44:34 <_av500_> on the port? Oct 11 19:44:38 yes Oct 11 19:45:43 the only hardware-related thing that i can think of that might be an issue is auto-crossing... but i think even with 100mbps devices gbe adapters manage to do that, right? Oct 11 19:45:54 i am currently dist-upgrading debian (via usb)... Oct 11 19:48:34 if the other side is GBE then it will auto-mdx Oct 11 19:54:19 tbr, if auto negotiate is set to GBE only then you might get issues Oct 11 19:54:51 Jonnyw2k-home: welcome to corner cases Oct 11 19:55:06 Jonnyw2k-home: I have yet to see an setup where that is default though Oct 11 19:59:05 ok... ethtool on the bbb is not very verbose but it looks fishy: Oct 11 19:59:07 Settings for eth0: Oct 11 19:59:07 Current message level: 0x00000000 (0) Oct 11 19:59:07 Oct 11 19:59:07 Link detected: no Oct 11 19:59:18 no idea if that's abnormal on bbb/arm though Oct 11 20:01:53 stefanct: ifconfig says what ? Oct 11 20:01:53 and no, it is not the cable ;) Oct 11 20:02:31 no frames sent at all according to ifconfig, do you want to know anything else? Oct 11 20:03:17 as i know if u connect a 10/100 to a gbe the gbe shoudl fall back to 10/100 Oct 11 20:03:24 so u should be covered there Oct 11 20:06:36 yes, i am not expecting any problems there anyway... i am just running out of ideas Oct 11 20:07:07 ok i am stupid... i have not checked dmesg yet Oct 11 20:07:32 what does that say ? Oct 11 20:07:39 [ 11.057714] net eth0: initializing cpsw version 1.12 (0) Oct 11 20:07:39 [ 11.059386] libphy: PHY 4a101000.mdio:00 not found Oct 11 20:07:39 [ 11.064557] net eth0: phy 4a101000.mdio:00 not found on slave 0 Oct 11 20:08:27 maybe i should just flash a new image... that's a farnell device btw Oct 11 20:08:42 where did you buy this? who produced this? Oct 11 20:10:33 it's from http://www.exp-tech.de/Mainboards/BeagleBone-Black.html and as i said it is a farnell/element14 "clone" Oct 11 20:13:10 um, no you didn't mention e14 Oct 11 20:14:01 no but i said farnell because that's the same for me :P Oct 11 20:14:52 try it with a different image and ethernet cable Oct 11 20:15:16 if it doesn't work, ask exp for a replacement Oct 11 20:35:31 hm... after shutting down and resetting the bbb it works now... yay for crappy hardware :( Oct 11 20:49:20 stefanct: keep an eye on it. might have been one of those random phy failures though Oct 11 21:34:25 Hi Oct 11 21:35:08 I need help getting my beagleboard b6 to work Oct 11 21:49:03 turn it on? plug it in? Oct 11 22:01:39 oh...hadn't thought about plugging it in.... Oct 11 22:14:21 My Beagleboard only shows one LED when powered on.....is it fried? Oct 11 22:17:14 Sulphurik: prepare a SD card, hold button, plug in power Oct 12 02:25:55 hi I have a question about the beaglebone black I was hoping to get some help with... Oct 12 02:27:05 does anyone know where I can find a datasheet for the BBB? Oct 12 02:27:21 I am need to know what pins are used for what Oct 12 02:34:36 jstew: http://www.adafruit.com/datasheets/BBB_SRM.pdf the system reference manual is her Oct 12 02:34:54 ugh spambots again Oct 12 02:36:41 jstew: this one is more up-to-date, but I'm not sure how much has changed: https://github.com/CircuitCo/BeagleBone-Black/blob/master/BBB_SRM.pdf?raw=true Oct 12 02:37:17 jstew: more links here: http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack#Hardware_Files **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Oct 12 02:59:59 2014
