**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Nov 28 03:00:48 2015 Nov 28 03:41:14 Does anyone else have experience with mounting their BBB? I haven't been able to mount to my PC for a few days now Nov 28 03:47:42 * Alons slaps treeherder around a bit with a large fishbot Nov 28 05:05:04 Has anyone dealt with setting kernel params before? Trying to hide some memory from the kernel so I can use a large contiguous block for DMA between the linux userspace and the PRUs and keep screwing stuff up Nov 28 06:14:07 Heh? Nov 28 06:14:09 BBB! Nov 28 06:30:16 OPi :p Nov 28 06:32:45 Hello veremit. Nov 28 06:33:44 I am watching a video on the BBB. I am learning about IoT and how to connect via BBB, c9, and JQuery. Nov 28 06:34:05 Boy! Nov 28 06:56:59 bet you're havin a blast Nov 28 06:57:08 I gotta hit the road .. bbt Nov 28 07:00:09 See ya! Nov 28 08:19:09 What's the best way to learn how to build housing for a BBB project? Nov 28 08:24:31 I suspect there are case designs that are open source, you could examine those Nov 28 08:28:54 For me its not just an enclosure for the BBB Nov 28 08:29:01 But also some extra compartments Nov 28 08:29:07 For anciliary devices Nov 28 08:29:36 I feel like this is basic Product Design 101 stuff, but I'm a software guy, not a hardware guy Nov 28 08:36:02 Check out .stl files from Thingiverse.com Nov 28 08:36:15 i.e. cases and .stl files. Nov 28 08:36:38 Or you can make sure own... Nov 28 08:37:09 .stl files can be made from a software standpoint at OpenSCAD. Nov 28 08:43:35 http://www.openscad.org/ is the site if you want to 3D print something for yourself. Nov 28 08:45:20 Does anyone know where I can find 0.05, 12-pin headers? I need a new source. Nov 28 08:49:46 aliexpress.com has everything :> Nov 28 08:50:04 Cool...thank you. Nov 28 08:52:54 They have the 12-pin headers but not the one I am looking for. I have tried DigiKey, Element14, and many others. Aw! Nov 28 08:53:18 Everyone cuts out when I ask for 0.05 or 0.07. Nov 28 08:55:03 Thank you anyway. Nov 28 08:59:49 i went to mouser too. Nov 28 09:01:20 jameco too Nov 28 09:01:45 * tbr just uses those long headers and cuts them to size... Nov 28 09:02:46 Yea...tbr: I have those already but my through-holes are small and the distance b/t them are even smaller. Nov 28 14:17:21 hii all, I am interested in contributing beagle-board,i basically do js and other frontend techs,where should i start with? Nov 28 14:20:51 read the beagleboard gsoc ideas list Nov 28 14:20:55 it's on the wiki Nov 28 14:31:06 I am searching the right project matching with my skills,that is javascript but not finding there. Nov 28 16:44:06 hey guys Nov 28 16:44:17 really enjoying with the BB for a quadcopter Nov 28 16:44:26 I am however stuck with working on Mac Nov 28 16:44:43 i was able to access the debian platform Nov 28 16:44:57 through "screen /dev/tty.usbmodem* 115200" Nov 28 16:45:12 any idea how to get the internet setup for the bb using MAC Nov 28 16:48:24 eurekaman7: what do you have connected to the BBB? Nov 28 20:36:05 Anyone have success getting kernel args to load during boot with debian (and uboot)? Nov 28 20:36:23 Trying to use memmap or mem to reserve a portion of RAM Nov 28 20:36:33 from the linux OS on boot Nov 28 20:36:54 something something uenv.txt Nov 28 20:37:02 * tbr hasn't fiddled with that in years Nov 28 20:37:40 though it might be that the scripts in /opt have some magic to do this for you Nov 28 20:38:20 Yeah, so I tried setting it in /boot/uEnv.txt Nov 28 20:38:30 Then reboot, check with free, seems like the same amount of memory Nov 28 20:39:26 Not sure if thats the right place to edit it. Checking kernel args after boot with "cat /proc/cmdline" seems like its not registering Nov 28 20:47:34 Is the uboot uEnv.xt somewhere else? Seems like the uBoot stuff should probably be stored outside the OS? Nov 28 21:12:54 kernargs : check that /boot is in fact the separate partition mounted on /boot Nov 28 21:22:50 CareBear\: I don't think it is.. df -P boot/ and df -P home/ are the same Nov 28 21:24:42 CareBear\: I did try to add a uEnv.txt file to /media/BEAGLEBONE/ in hopes that that is where it gets its boot info, but that didn't do anything either. Kinda playing wackamole Nov 28 21:29:53 kernargs: did you look at the scripts in /opt? Nov 28 21:31:52 specifically: /opt/scripts/tools/update_kernel.sh Nov 28 21:32:23 tbr: I was looking in /opt/scripts/boot, reading through those. Will read /opt/scripts/tools/update_kernel.sh now Nov 28 21:44:05 tbr: Don't 100% understand what they are doing there, but they appear to just update the kernel version number "uname_r".. hmm Nov 28 21:51:58 tbr: There are references in other files to /tmp/rootfs/boot/uEnv.txt which may be a temp directory that gets mounted on boot to load kernel args Nov 28 21:52:48 kernargs: my guess is, that you need to mount the FAT partition and edit that uenv.txt and make sure the line you edit actually gets used Nov 28 21:54:55 tbr: Yeah, that sounds reasonable. I just bricked it, so I'll try it after I reflash. Any chance you have pointers to how to go about doing that? Nov 28 21:56:04 tbr: Looks like maybe its /dev/mmcblk1p1, I'll give that a shot. Thanks a bunch Nov 29 01:40:57 hi Nov 29 01:41:18 I am trying to use beagle bone black for the first time Nov 29 01:41:28 yes Nov 29 01:41:36 I wish to blink the onboard leds using shell commands Nov 29 01:41:55 there is a howto Nov 29 01:42:01 using c9 Nov 29 01:42:08 when i try to use the echo command Nov 29 01:42:16 it prompts permission denied Nov 29 01:42:18 included with the bbb Nov 29 01:43:04 i get the following error Nov 29 01:43:35 -bash: trigger Permission denied Nov 29 01:44:49 could you please help me out to sort this issue Nov 29 01:44:58 Are you running a .py or .js file? Nov 29 01:45:34 Oh and hello you two. Nov 29 01:46:48 I am asking because if you are running a .js file, you need to have node.js. Nov 29 01:46:56 i am trying to blink the leds from command shell Nov 29 01:47:21 http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Debian_On_BeagleBone_Black Nov 29 01:47:38 i am following the instructions given on the above site Nov 29 01:47:41 Okay...so you have a program but type of file are you running? Nov 29 01:48:03 .py or .js? Nov 29 01:48:04 whenever i use trigger command it prompts permission denied Nov 29 01:48:41 I understand. Run .py files with python then the file name. Run javascript with node and then the file name. Nov 29 01:49:55 Type you code in the nano or vim editor. Then run it! Just remember to type python before your .py file and then node before you javascript file. Nov 29 01:50:53 actually i am not running any file Nov 29 01:50:57 Oh. Nov 29 01:51:05 if you could see the link i posted above Nov 29 01:51:13 Okay. Hold on. Nov 29 01:51:29 you would have a clear picture of what i am trying to do Nov 29 01:51:56 Okay...I am going to look. Nov 29 01:52:54 http://elinux.org/EBC_Exercise_10_Flashing_an_LED Nov 29 01:53:07 sorry please check this link Nov 29 01:53:12 Okay. Nov 29 01:53:14 not the first one Nov 29 01:53:16 Hold please. Nov 29 01:53:17 Okay. Nov 29 01:54:36 I checked. That page is empty on my side. Nov 29 01:55:12 If you want to flash an LED, check beagleboard.org. Nov 29 01:55:19 Or Github.com. Nov 29 01:57:02 You have to run a file (program, software, code) to blink an LED or do anything with the BBB. Nov 29 02:15:15 hey set_ Nov 29 02:17:56 Hello felon. Nov 29 02:18:54 sup Nov 29 02:19:13 Nothing much...I am reading on the BBB and programming. Nov 29 02:20:11 I have this book. I need to find new software on the subjects of input and output of sound. Nov 29 02:20:55 I wanted to use alsamixer, aplay, and PocketSphinx. Oh and espeak. Nov 29 02:21:27 The book is old (outdated). So, I think I will have to look elsewhere for certain software. Nov 29 02:22:02 ... Nov 29 02:22:21 felon, do you know about voice recognition and playing .wav files from the BBB? Nov 29 02:26:27 I will probably need to get a different sound adapter. Nov 29 02:32:18 I need to find a very cheap JTAG, 12-pin two-row adapter. Does anyone know of a good brand that is inexpensive? Nov 29 02:33:46 no i dont Nov 29 02:33:50 sorry Nov 29 02:34:06 Dang. I have searched high and low. I guess everyone is out. Nov 29 02:34:26 felon, do you use the BBB/BBG for voice recognition? Nov 29 02:36:53 Never mind, I cannot find a 12-pin JTAG anywhere. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Nov 29 03:00:58 2015
