**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Mar 18 03:00:02 2017 Mar 18 17:32:16 hi guys Mar 18 20:55:19 Hi, Recieved my Beaglebone blue today.. While checking the installed OS, it has been configured with SOftAp.. What would be the passwort of it ? Mar 18 20:56:50 zmatt: here ? Mar 18 21:01:01 where? Mar 18 21:01:13 ;) Mar 18 21:01:26 i find for my inverted color Mar 18 21:01:43 http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Xorg_Drivers Mar 18 21:01:50 just launch this script Mar 18 21:02:00 and all it's fine Mar 18 21:02:18 uh, what's in those scripts Mar 18 21:02:21 ? Mar 18 21:05:22 ah, https://github.com/RobertCNelson/boot-scripts/blob/master/tools/graphics/ti-tilcdc.sh Mar 18 21:05:50 yes Mar 18 21:06:08 too late for ma pastebin ^^ Mar 18 21:06:21 my* Mar 18 21:06:57 odd that he installs read-edid even though he doesn't seem to use it Mar 18 21:07:21 but yeah, pretty trivial Mar 18 21:07:50 note that xserver-xorg-video-fbturbo might be faster, but haven't tried it yet on a beaglebone Mar 18 21:08:11 it's specifically optimized for ARM, makes use of NEON, etc Mar 18 21:10:15 I still think it's weird to need an xorg.conf for this... you'd expect the kernel should be able to communicate to X11 that only one particular pixelformat is supported Mar 18 21:10:35 (it's not, but there's only one you actually want to use) Mar 18 21:10:44 that create a xorg.conf no ? Mar 18 21:11:17 but i am really happy now, all it work ! Mar 18 21:11:24 uhh, that's all the script does: install three packages, create an xorg.conf file Mar 18 21:11:25 with true colors :p Mar 18 21:12:52 and a 16-bit framebuffer, hence no pointless waste of memory bandwidth, and since applications are then also told the correct bit depth, they at least have a chance to dither when appropriate Mar 18 22:24:08 hi Mar 18 22:24:36 anyone here? Mar 18 22:32:43 o/ Mar 18 22:34:24 Guys, im dense lol, I'm running the latest release, flashed to emmc, I can see gpio status changes in /sys/class/gpio/gpio% , but for the life of me I can't get it to display in node-red Mar 18 22:35:09 someone please, tell me which step I'm stumbling around, so I can move on :| Mar 19 00:38:28 hi! i just got my beaglebone blue today, and i've tried the setup guides for osx and linux on two different laptops and i'm not able to connect to it Mar 19 00:38:44 Have you tried 192.168.7.2? Mar 19 00:38:48 after installing the 2 os x drivers, nothing shows in disks or networks for the blue Mar 19 00:38:48 yes Mar 19 00:39:06 after running the script on ubuntu it doesn't seem to register anywhere either Mar 19 00:39:26 What does ifconfig show on the host machine? Mar 19 00:40:03 just my lo and wireless Mar 19 00:40:44 Huh. Not sure how to see if the device is registered on a Macintosh. Is there something like dmesg? Mar 19 00:46:35 there is. dmesg doesn't show anything related to beaglebone on ubuntu or osx Mar 19 00:46:40 lsusb on ubuntu doesn't show it Mar 19 00:49:00 Did you try a different cable? That seems odd that both machines aren't seeing it. Mar 19 00:53:28 yup Mar 19 00:57:48 Not sure what to suggest next Mar 19 01:23:47 i've tried 5 cables, 3 cause the leds to light up and do the heartbeat and nothing registers on either laptop. the other two cables don't light up the board but dmesg on laptops show overcurrent detected Mar 19 01:28:26 Do you have a 5V adapter for the board Mar 19 01:28:51 Wonder if that might help the overcurrent issue Mar 19 01:34:39 i don't.. the blue says 12v though Mar 19 01:35:19 would a 12v power supply only be necessary if i'm driving motors and whatnot? Mar 19 01:50:25 Not sure Mar 19 01:50:42 But yeah, wondering if an external adapter might help in this situation Mar 19 02:02:57 tried with a 12v adapter i got from a router, and a few cables, still nothing Mar 19 02:02:59 shrugs Mar 19 02:05:30 Guys, im dense lol, I'm running the latest release on the site, on a black, flashed to emmc, I can see gpio status changes in /sys/class/gpio/gpio% , but for the life of me I can't get it to display in node-red Mar 19 02:26:37 need help to auto launch a pyqt5 gui app when BBB powers up **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 19 03:00:02 2017
