**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri May 29 02:59:59 2015 May 29 04:35:36 please somebody help on enabling GPIO through device tree overlay method for beagleboard Xm May 29 04:36:46 I decompile dtb config file into .dts file for omap3-beagle-xm.But I don't no how to proceed further May 29 09:00:05 hi May 29 09:00:13 any idea how to get ipv6 over bluetooth? May 29 09:00:22 that 6lowpan module is not there May 29 09:08:18 and what is "opkg" May 29 09:08:27 http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Contiki-6LOWPAN-BBB May 29 10:51:56 please help on enabling GPIO for Beagleboard Xm.... May 29 10:52:52 how to set mode of gpio pins in device tree files May 29 11:54:37 hi all. i'm having some trouble getting the beaglebone to display through an hdmi to composite converter. can anyone help? May 29 12:30:10 Hi May 29 12:30:21 good evening to all !!! May 29 12:30:52 I am working with freertos for beaglebone May 29 12:31:18 how to interface CLI to FreeRTOS ? May 29 12:31:40 any one can suggest how to proceed .. May 29 14:33:57 Hello, is it possible to boot Bone Debian (http://beagleboard.org/latest-images) in VirtualBox? I have unsuccesfully tried to boot from the .img file that is provided for the SD card route. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. May 29 14:55:04 Guest96721: will that work at all? I mean it's ARM architecture May 29 14:56:05 so I don't think it's possible at all May 29 14:56:10 unless you find an ARM emulator May 29 14:56:37 just get the real beaglebone May 29 15:00:00 Thanks for the response. That may be my best bet, I'll post back if I am able to make any progress on my original post. May 29 15:06:28 Technically, you could install qemu with an ARM target, but I thin it would be too much trouble to configure the bootloader for that May 29 15:08:26 And even if you manage to succeed you'll have a terrible time figuring out if all the bugs you find are in your software or quirks of emulation May 29 15:10:49 you can debootstrap an armhf chroot with qemu-debootstrap on amd64/i386 fairly easily May 29 15:11:09 what software? May 29 15:12:49 yeah, use a qemu-user-static/qemu-debootstrap chroot May 29 15:12:56 trivial ... May 29 15:13:49 not all programs will run (and in some cases, install), but you can get a base system working May 29 15:14:06 yeah, works in 80-90% of the cases May 29 15:19:08 yup, I've done that once May 29 21:02:08 argh, asshats May 29 21:02:57 time to locally revert [PATCH] spi: spidev: Warn loudly if instantiated from DT as "spidev" May 29 21:11:20 zmatt, checkout the miles and miles of disuccsions on that... pain the ass! ;) May 29 21:12:51 when I put "spidev" in DT, it's explicitly because I want the device to be used from userspace... in such cases it's none of the kernel's business what kind of device it is, or whether spidev is deemed to be the "appropriate" driver for that device May 29 21:13:58 not to mention it may simply be used as a custom communication protocol with some μC May 29 21:18:27 crap, gotto run to catch my train. bbl May 29 23:44:02 Hi, I am working with BBB. I'm interfacing the GPIOs to various modules. BBB is booting properly if no module is connected to the GPIOs. If i Connect all modules to the GPIOs and given the power, it is not booting. May 29 23:44:28 Is the GPIOs should be HIGH wile booting? May 29 23:45:18 if so, How can i change it to my requirement May 30 00:17:51 I'm interfacing the GPIOs to various modules. BBB is booting properly if no module is connected to the GPIOs. If i Connect all modules to the GPIOs and given the power, it is not booting. Are all the GPIOs should be HIGH while booting? if so, How can i change it to my requirement? May 30 00:18:17 Your guidance will be an help for my development May 30 01:01:37 krish1335: the GPIOs are initially undriven (high-impedance) and weakly pulled up or down (varies per pin) May 30 01:02:21 during boot they can then be configured otherwise May 30 01:02:41 be aware that you're not allowed to drive any BBB pins while it is unpowered May 30 01:03:20 (drive them from an external source I mean) May 30 01:04:24 are you using the GPIOs as inputs (Module -> BBB) or outputs (BBB -> Module) ? May 30 01:07:26 krish1335: when using them as outputs, be careful you're not drawing too much current. When using them as inputs, try to avoid driving them while the BBB is in reset (nRESET low), and make sure you do not have an accidental pinmux conflict that causes those pins to be configured as output (even temporarily) May 30 01:10:10 be especially careful with pins 31-46 of connector P8 since these are sampled during power-on to determine the boot configuration (there are pull-up/down resistors on the BBB that select the correct configuration, but they are 100Kohm) May 30 02:06:22 oh my goodness May 30 02:06:35 I've been asking questions for ages in #beaglebone, no answer May 30 02:06:41 Is this really...gosh dang it May 30 02:06:58 ? May 30 02:07:07 yes May 30 02:07:08 #beaglebone May 30 02:07:26 nobody ever talks there except people who come hoping for some help and leave dissappointed May 30 02:07:27 well #beagle to be precise May 30 02:07:34 last i knew it was even in the #beaglebone topic May 30 02:07:35 *disappointed May 30 02:07:47 there is no topic set in #beaglebone May 30 02:08:18 in that event, that should have been your second clue :) May 30 02:08:35 there were a bunch of people there, and there's a BeagleBot and everything May 30 02:08:50 figured the bbb just didn't have much support or something May 30 02:09:09 Pretty sure beagleboard.org points here. ;-P May 30 02:09:22 yeah, that's how I found this channel May 30 02:09:23 http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=nN3gwe7T May 30 02:10:19 I'm at my wits end May 30 02:10:30 finding this channel is such a relief May 30 02:11:20 first I need to get a pdf off the thing, so I figured I would start up apache May 30 02:11:27 by "2000 mAh" do you mean "2 amps"? because the bbb can't draw more than half an amp off USB iirc May 30 02:11:33 yep May 30 02:13:46 so yeah, get a 5V supply May 30 02:13:57 already have it hooked up :> May 30 02:14:03 so that bit is fixed May 30 02:15:02 can't help with the rest, i don't do debian May 30 02:15:22 My dad said it came stock with debian May 30 02:15:30 yup May 30 02:15:40 I don't hardly do debian either, I use Red Hat, almost always CentOS May 30 02:15:52 does the current images start apache by default? May 30 02:15:58 thought it did the cloud 9 stuff May 30 02:18:20 well, got my PDF from SFTP May 30 02:18:51 essentially my dad would like me to script up some seismic stuff to automatically start the programs it'll be running, check for USB, periodically dump it to external storage, etc May 30 02:19:08 except for the fact that I have no clue how any of the software works and all he said was 'read the manual' May 30 02:19:26 systemd May 30 02:19:33 plenty of docs on taht May 30 02:19:37 so I've been RTFMing for a while now and just want to get started on what do actually do **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat May 30 02:59:59 2015
