**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 13 02:59:58 2016 Mar 13 06:25:50 how to enable uarts in beagleboneblack Mar 13 09:49:56 Hi all Mar 13 09:50:38 Does any body know - is it possible to receive SanCloud BeagleBone Enhanced earlier ? (today-tomorrow :) ) Mar 13 12:19:01 Could anyone please help me? Mar 13 16:50:38 hey Mar 13 18:15:31 is there any update on the x15 ship date? Mar 13 18:21:58 * tbr hasn't heard, at least Mar 13 18:31:42 hello Mar 13 18:33:34 i want to change the mode of the pin 9_28 from mcasp0 to the ecap2 in pwm2 Mar 13 19:03:01 any help ? Mar 13 19:18:54 for? Mar 13 19:21:37 i want to change the mode of the pin 9_28 from mcasp0 to the ecap2 in pwm2 Mar 13 19:36:28 pinmux? Mar 13 19:36:34 and device tree? Mar 13 19:36:47 whats your kernel ? Mar 13 19:37:26 BBW, you can probably use a cape manager if kernel is a 3.8 Mar 13 19:37:54 after that was removed and you need to recompile the whole DT Mar 13 19:38:23 even if i read somewhere it was reimplemented with 4.2 kernel Mar 13 19:43:59 my kernel is 3.8 Mar 13 19:44:13 how can i use the cape manager Mar 13 19:45:35 BBW, subject is complicated and cannot be discussed in few line here Mar 13 19:45:53 you need to take some time studing it before Mar 13 19:46:16 but think that u can dinamically switch your pins via pinmux Mar 13 19:46:31 loading a new cape with the use of capemanager Mar 13 19:46:43 you need to write you fragment of code before Mar 13 19:46:50 thats shouldnt be complicated Mar 13 19:47:15 after that u need to compile your fragment and use capemanager to dinamically link it in the kernel Mar 13 19:48:41 at least can you give me link or documentation ? Mar 13 19:50:28 because i need it for my project Mar 13 19:50:52 http://elinux.org/BeagleBone_and_the_3.8_Kernel Mar 13 19:51:19 what you really need is to understand how an OVERLAY works Mar 13 19:51:24 you dont need the whole DT Mar 13 19:55:21 linkages thanks for your help !! i really want to understand how overlay works Mar 14 00:14:35 Hello everybody Mar 14 00:15:28 someone knows where can I find the source code of the current stable version for Beaglebone Black "4.1.15-ti-rt-r40"? Mar 14 00:15:53 Someone could help me please? Mar 14 00:26:58 http://beagleboard.org/latest-images Mar 14 00:27:12 Guest7867, ^ Mar 14 00:29:09 oh sry those were only the images Mar 14 00:29:43 Stable version of what? Mar 14 02:12:05 veremit: you get an event on power button press/release though, so it's sort of generally usable as long as you don't keep is pressed for more than iirc 8-10 seconds or something :P Mar 14 02:12:54 unless you have a CircuitCo BBWhite rev B where that interrupt line has the wrong polarity :P Mar 14 02:15:43 well .. my go-to page for debian images for the BBB seems to have been butchered .. http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian :( Mar 14 02:21:21 in what sense? it seems to work fine here Mar 14 02:27:42 jkridner: btw, since I spent a lot of time examining the BBB and especially its power scheme I discovered a number of issues that, while not show-stoppers, could often easily have been fixed and saved someone some misery (and perhaps saved a few uart0_rxd ports from dying)... if you want me to go with a comb over the Blue to see if I spot anything iffy, let me know Mar 14 02:27:52 zmatt: all the 2015 images have been blitzed in favour of the very unclear "latest-images" page Mar 14 02:28:03 and uh .. he left :P Mar 14 02:28:07 crap Mar 14 02:28:46 he's rarely here lately .. hope this means Big Things for beagle-inspired projects .. but I'm not counting on it. Mar 14 02:29:02 I really wish i could make irssi only hide meta-activity of people who haven't been active in the last page or so Mar 14 02:29:11 good evening :) I have a silly question: is it possible to enable ttyS3/4 on debian 8.3 without writing own overlay? Mar 14 02:29:32 piranha32: there should be overlays around for those... Mar 14 02:29:34 on bbW Mar 14 02:29:42 ooh, or maybe not. Mar 14 02:29:56 zmatt: yeah we all need plugins for that. Mar 14 02:30:21 it should auto-fade text from users who've vanished .. Mar 14 02:30:29 veremit: well he's the only one I've seen talking about the blue, hence I addressed him Mar 14 02:30:55 yeah he's the Main man for that... unless you happen to know anyone in the other partner orgs lol Mar 14 02:31:09 nothing in the blogs? Mar 14 02:31:32 I should probably write an email or so, also to the BBB-Enhanced people... but I'm struggling a bit with the right words to use or something Mar 14 02:32:34 iirc angstrom image shipped with all necessary files. Debian seems to me to be huge step back from what was done with Angstrom Mar 14 02:33:24 like, I think it's pretty stupid that several BBB derivates have already come out but e.g. none have made any attempt too fix the 3v3b regulator issue discussed in detail on the mailing list Mar 14 02:34:29 and maybe usb wifi sticks would suddenly give less trouble if the prescribed large cap was actually present on the usb 5v output :P Mar 14 02:35:32 cue cheesy video from Jason: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T15D7U2BOf4 Mar 14 02:35:53 zmatt: you need to talk to gerald Mar 14 02:36:06 pretty sure he's the hardware engineer Mar 14 02:36:27 whether jason can open that up .. dunno. Mar 14 02:38:14 at least he might explain why he took the design decisions he did .. even if they are debatable lol Mar 14 02:38:59 some of it is really minor stuff... like powering the serial console buffer from 3v3a instead of 3v3b would most likely have saved the uart0_rxd pin that died on some people's BBB :/ Mar 14 02:40:01 and gerald... for some reason communicating with him never feels like it's going well Mar 14 02:40:52 (and never really leaves the impression to me that something has been accomplished by communicating) Mar 14 02:42:03 that just probaby him .. but I can easily imagine. Mar 14 02:44:14 or me, or us... I tend to be very direct, while he's often vague and I can't really tell what he's thinking Mar 14 02:46:43 anyhow, since my head is an ever-growing repository of little issues and nuiscencs of the BBB, combined with the fact I'm often quite good at spotting issues which others overlooked, it seems like a waste to not use that to obtain some feedback at a time when changes are still possible, instead of after release Mar 14 02:47:19 definitely .. I think you've done a lot of good stuff Mar 14 02:49:38 yeah, but it would help even more to get it "out there" among BBB-clone-developers... which is e.g. why I started that wiki page on power stuff but I'm just not very good at writing text... I continuously get hung up in little details and it costs me a lot of time and energy :/ Mar 14 02:51:12 (that's why I hoped to catch jk here online... interactive person-to-person is a lot easier. if I'd try to make it into an email, it might still be sitting in Drafts by the end of the week :P Mar 14 02:51:16 ) Mar 14 02:56:53 as for the irssi thing, I actually digged into the source code and it afaict it would be somewhere between "very hard" and "impossible" to have a script dynamically filter join/part/quiet messages in the way I want :/ patching irssi may actually be easier Mar 14 02:57:32 or at least patch irssi to add hooks in the right places to be able to do the rest in a script Mar 14 02:59:35 zmatt: I don't think there are any irc clients that will do dynamic adjustments of text .. which is what would be ideal .. Mar 14 02:59:54 zmatt: and totally get you about having a conversation .. wonder if skype/similar may be an option **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Mar 14 02:59:58 2016
