**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Dec 21 03:00:00 2016 Dec 21 05:34:05 I want to know which inbuilt temperature sensor in BBB's AM335x have. Or when I hit 'sensors' command what is inside there which gives me output..? Dec 21 07:06:15 its a file in /sys somewhere i thought Dec 21 07:07:50 hmm couldn't find it Dec 21 09:21:15 the bandgap sensor... good question Dec 21 09:21:24 it's terribly inaccurate anyhow Dec 21 09:23:53 "The sensor can measure temperatures between -50°C and 150°C, but the low-resolution 8-bit ADC gives the sensor a poor accuracy of ±10.8°C." Dec 21 09:24:54 so I'm not sure where they learned to calculate... Dec 21 09:25:53 but obviously the resolution of the adc can't be blamed for the shitty accuracy (and I found a thread where TI confirmed that accuracy value was not a typo) Dec 21 09:33:09 zmatt: maybe the effective resolution of the ADC is not 8 bit Dec 21 09:34:52 yay, a 4-bit ADC :P I ultimately don't know why it's so crap, only that apparently it is Dec 21 09:40:53 thinkfat: there is a driver for it though, drivers/thermal/ti-soc-thermal/ti-bandgap.h Dec 21 09:40:59 but it's missing definitions for the am335x Dec 21 09:41:20 normally, adding it to the devicetree should be enough, no? Dec 21 09:41:22 googling for "am335x bandgap" also yields drivers Dec 21 09:41:24 no Dec 21 09:43:18 https://github.com/RobertCNelson/linux-stable-rcn-ee/blob/4.9-bone3/drivers/thermal/ti-soc-thermal/ti-bandgap.c#L1583-L1623 Dec 21 09:45:10 a quick google also yields am335x-specific drivers floating around Dec 21 09:45:37 https://github.com/beagleboard/meta-beagleboard/blob/master/common-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-mainline-3.8/resources/0021-hwmon-add-driver-for-the-AM335x-bandgap-temperature-.patch Dec 21 09:45:40 pretty trivial one too Dec 21 10:21:59 hey guys Dec 21 12:08:56 hi, running linux-image-4.8.15-bone2 on bbb rev c, anywhere I can find the corresponding linux-image-extra-... pkg for it? seems like no 'extra' packages are available from repos.rcn-ee.net/debian... Dec 21 12:20:52 extra? what's supposed to be in it? Dec 21 12:20:57 * zmatt never seen or heard of it Dec 21 13:28:52 zmatt: additional kernel modules, trying to get gadgetfs going but it seems like I'm missing some module Dec 21 13:30:02 standard kernel package does contain the gadgetfs modules, not sure whether all their dependencies though as I'm seeing 'unknown filesystem type gadgetfs' Dec 21 17:18:09 Is the beagle board x15 actually available anywhere? I read the webpage that said they were shipping 250/week months ago, but digikey, mouser, etc. don't have it or have outrageous backorder times / quantity requirements. Anybody know if the x15 is really out there? Dec 21 17:19:27 hi guys I installed the latest debian jessie emmc flasher image and do not have the command config-pin Dec 21 17:19:45 how can I go about exporting pins and overlays with the 4.4 kernel? Dec 21 18:52:41 i need some help why is there no config-pin available on this bbb image? Dec 21 21:08:04 Hi quick question. How many csv files can I store on my beaglebone black? Or what is the maximum storage capacity for BeagleBone Black? Dec 21 21:15:56 KK: how big's your microSD card? Dec 21 21:17:39 KK: BBB is typically 4GB. df will tell you how much remains unused. CSV files are highly variable in length - "how many" is not something we can tell you. Dec 21 21:28:56 Thanks MMATTICE you just answered my question. Dec 21 23:23:41 hi there Dec 21 23:25:47 anyone encountered the failure to install USB driver for Windows 8 64-bit? Dec 21 23:26:26 the download link is from http://beagleboard.org/getting-started Dec 21 23:26:52 the download link is http://beagleboard.org/static/Drivers/Windows/BONE_D64.exe **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Dec 22 02:59:59 2016
