**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Mar 27 03:00:04 2018 Mar 27 03:14:39 yassyass_: uhh, I'm not sure what you mean by a "de facto method of writing code on the BBB, which in this instance for i2c" Mar 27 03:15:37 you just use the kernel driver to perform i2c transactions, either directly by using ioctl() calls or by using a library that wraps this api into a higher-level interface Mar 27 03:16:12 that, along with the choice of language, is just personal preference Mar 27 03:17:46 right, that didn't seem too obvious for me as I was being lead to think that using python or bonescript is what's typically done. I have taken those approaches but its difficult to troubleshoot when it doesn't run as expected. Mar 27 03:18:35 python, javascript, c/c++ are all being used Mar 27 03:20:26 troubleshooting is partially language/library-independent (e.g. hardware connections, pinmux config) and partially language/library-dependent (e.g. calling the library in a wrong way) Mar 27 03:36:53 I am reading over the qemu site. I am getting an error at -net use. Ubuntu reads back: Invalid Parameter 'use' Mar 27 03:37:14 i.e. qemu-system-arm Mar 27 03:39:13 fortnight: I think you want '-net user' Mar 27 03:39:30 Aw. Maybe there was a typo. Mar 27 03:39:34 Thank you. Mar 27 03:40:37 now...my damn lan is invalid. Snooky! Mar 27 03:41:07 noahm: you were right. Mar 27 03:42:14 Is there a way to look up what LAN I am using? Mar 27 03:43:33 zmatt: anyway you could refer me to an example of what using the kernel driver to perform i2c transactions? Mar 27 03:44:01 <<< off to check Mar 27 03:49:41 what parameter do I use for model-lan.x.x.x.x where x.x.x.x is the parameter? Mar 27 03:50:26 i.e. w/ qemu-system-arm? Mar 27 03:50:46 Cross-compilation stuff! Mar 27 04:05:02 do not answer me. I was not ready. I am goofing up. I will be back later. Mar 27 05:23:43 .config can be found where on an Ubuntu machine when cross-compiling to a BBB? Mar 27 05:24:07 I am asking b/c I have to make some changes to this file but I cannot find the damn file. Mar 27 05:28:43 <<<< back to menuconfig Mar 27 05:35:42 I did a build anyway. I will see if it works or if this mysterious .config file exists later. Mar 27 05:44:03 4.10.1 here I come...boy! Mar 27 05:49:06 LAN8710A is what I was trying to find earlier and could not think. yea boy! Mar 27 05:49:31 Right? Or...should I find the LAN for my 64 machine? Mar 27 05:52:51 ...and this damn town. We just had a Maker Faire and the Sat. came and went. Mar 27 05:52:52 ... Mar 27 05:53:12 I missed the whole idea of making connections locally. Mar 27 06:20:23 Does binutils usually take forever to build? Mar 27 06:20:36 hi Mar 27 06:20:53 Hello there... Mar 27 06:21:14 Nagarjuna: I am working on cross-compilation right now. Mar 27 06:21:26 hi i have one problem using beaglebone can you help me Mar 27 06:21:31 binutils is taking forever to build right now. Mar 27 06:21:36 Probably not but I can try. Mar 27 06:21:41 Shoot! Mar 27 06:22:18 Nagarjuna: What is your issue this fine hour? Mar 27 06:22:51 the problem is gpio output . i have enabled gpio out direction is high its showing 3.3v Mar 27 06:23:16 and alfter gpio out direction value is low but it not showing 0 Mar 27 06:23:24 it showing voltage 3.3v Mar 27 06:23:33 Oh. Mar 27 06:23:46 are you sure it's muxed correctl,y?y? Mar 27 06:23:50 pin is P8-3 Mar 27 06:24:11 Yea...that is the power, right? Mar 27 06:24:25 yes Mar 27 06:24:26 Not GPIO. Mar 27 06:24:34 Use a GPIO pin instead. Mar 27 06:24:45 no that is a gpio pin Mar 27 06:24:53 Oh. Let me check. Mar 27 06:25:00 ok Mar 27 06:25:29 i checked Mar 27 06:25:36 its a gpio pin Mar 27 06:26:23 Use P8_11 instead and use config-pin P8.11 gpio and check it. Mar 27 06:26:36 I think you check it by config-pin -q P8.11 Mar 27 06:26:45 ... Mar 27 06:27:02 my damn build is taking about an hour now. I thought builds happened in half of that time...yikes. Mar 27 06:28:17 Nagarjuna: use the config-pin utility already on the "bone" and use something outside of that pin. Further down the P8 or P9 header should do. Mar 27 07:34:32 Hello,I didn't get any update on the organisation's goal for gsoc Mar 27 07:34:42 Anything someone can help with? Mar 27 07:34:59 there is a gsoc specific IRC channel for beagle Mar 27 07:46:11 that toolchain just took two hours. Boo! Mar 27 07:46:50 why are you building your own toolchain? Mar 27 07:47:07 For fun. Mar 27 07:47:16 and edu-ma-cation. Mar 27 07:47:25 then you just had two hours of fun, what are you complaining about? ;) Mar 27 07:47:39 Nothing really. I was trying not to brag. Mar 27 07:47:54 Complaining came first to bragging. Bragging was second. Mar 27 07:48:11 Ya' boy! Mar 27 10:27:12 I am using Beagle Bone black and configuring some GPIOs as Digital output. After enabling GPO pin to HIGH it is not reseting to LOW value. If I query in tool it shows as '0" but on that PIN of GPO it is 3.3volts Mar 27 10:28:07 Prakash: hmm Mar 27 10:28:14 Hi Mar 27 10:28:35 Prakash: can you check the pin config with my show-pins script: https://github.com/mvduin/bbb-pin-utils/#show-pins Mar 27 10:28:47 I am working on software part of BeagleBone Black and I have encountered some issues on configuring GPIO as Digital output. I am configuring GPIO as Digital output and enabling it to HIGH, Once it becomes HIGH it is not resetting back to LOW. While querying via software tool it shows LOW but if you check the voltage at that pin, is it HIGH always. To reset I need to re flash the image file on the board again. So can you guide Mar 27 10:29:04 reflash even? that makes zero sense Mar 27 10:29:22 there's normally nothing that persists across reboot Mar 27 10:30:27 okay Mar 27 10:30:48 BUT if I reset it to LOW it is not going to LOW Mar 27 10:30:59 which pin? Mar 27 10:32:01 and check its config using my show-pins script (e.g. after installing it you can do show-pins | grep P9.11 or whatever) Mar 27 10:36:43 I am setting P8 3rd 4th 5th and 6th I am configuring it as Digital Output Mar 27 10:36:55 those are normally used for eMMC Mar 27 10:37:18 Beagle Bone Black Mar 27 10:38:11 In pinout section it is given as GPIO1_6, GPIO1_7 Mar 27 10:38:27 P8.03-06 and P8.20-25 are reserved for use by eMMC. if you want to be able to use them you'll need to boot from sd card instead of eMMC and disable eMMC via /boot/uEnv.txt Mar 27 10:39:15 We have already disabled eMMc Mar 27 10:39:50 are you sure? can you show (via pastebin.com or such) the relevant lines from the output of my show-pins script? Mar 27 10:40:02 okay Mar 27 10:40:14 #cmdline=init=/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh Mar 27 10:40:34 ? Mar 27 10:40:51 that line should always be commented out unless you're trying to make an eMMC flasher Mar 27 10:41:32 note: when not using eMMC I strongly recommend first wiping eMMC to ensure bootrom will load u-boot from sd card instead of from eMMC Mar 27 10:41:40 okay I will check that Mar 27 10:42:01 One more thing Mar 27 10:42:03 this is probably not related to your issue, but it prevents an older u-boot being loaded from eMMC Mar 27 10:42:27 you can wipe eMMC using: sudo blkdiscard /dev/mmcblk1 Mar 27 10:42:44 (note that if you disabled eMMC, you'd first need to temporarily reenable it to perform that command) Mar 27 10:43:37 ok its have 9.2(version) Mar 27 10:43:46 previously also 9.2 Mar 27 10:43:53 a wrong u-boot being used could cause the "disable_uboot_overlay_emmc=1 Mar 27 10:43:58 just same os i am flashing Mar 27 10:44:02 " line in uEnv.txt from being ignored Mar 27 10:44:22 debian version doesn't really say everything Mar 27 10:44:34 safest is just to wipe eMMC if you're not going to be using it anyway Mar 27 10:44:39 "disable_uboot_overlay_emmc=1 its have uncomment Mar 27 10:45:04 does /dev/mmcblk1 exist? Mar 27 10:45:37 ok Mar 27 10:45:58 and can i flash again Mar 27 10:46:03 ? Mar 27 10:46:17 if you want to be able to use P8.03-06 are gpio, you cannot use eMMC Mar 27 10:46:43 *as gpio Mar 27 10:47:30 I need to use P803 to 06 as digital output, so how can I do that Mar 27 10:47:46 I dont want to use eMMC Mar 27 10:47:56 okay, step 1: does /dev/mmcblk1 exist? Mar 27 10:49:25 Prakash? Mar 27 10:50:11 let m e check it Mar 27 10:52:21 mmcbik1 directory is there Mar 27 10:53:21 it's a device, not a directory, but ok... so eMMC is not disabled Mar 27 10:53:28 wipe eMMC with sudo blkdiscard /dev/mmcblk1 Mar 27 10:53:41 okay Mar 27 10:53:53 then make sure "disable_uboot_overlay_emmc=1" is not commented out in /boot/uEnv.txt Mar 27 10:53:57 then reboot Mar 27 10:54:10 okay Mar 27 10:57:16 I have done as per your suggestions, but now reboot command it not responding Mar 27 10:57:41 uhh, you *were* booted from sd card right? Mar 27 10:57:46 Will it work if I do hard reset. Mar 27 10:58:04 yeah I booted from SD card Mar 27 10:58:28 you're very sure about that? well I guess we'll find out once you hit the reset button Mar 27 10:58:38 help Mar 27 10:58:41 but earlier that reboot command was working for me Mar 27 10:58:47 but reboot somehow failing at this point is not a good sign Mar 27 10:58:52 okay Mar 27 10:59:55 I have done reset Mar 27 11:01:50 it boots ok? is /dev/mmcblk1 now gone? Mar 27 11:02:36 I will check give me some time Mar 27 11:04:09 Now the OS is gone I hope Mar 27 11:04:15 Let me check it Mar 27 11:04:17 ?? Mar 27 11:04:52 I'm not sure what you mean by "the OS is gone" nor why you'd be hoping for it Mar 27 11:05:22 its not responging any thing its showing black and not connecting Mar 27 11:05:58 it sounds to me like you weren't booting from sd card at all, but from eMMC Mar 27 11:06:12 (which now fails since eMMC is wiped) Mar 27 11:06:51 I already suspected that when you said reboot wasn't working Mar 27 11:06:53 Give me some time I will check it and ping you back Mar 27 13:10:32 Hi. Do anyone have a guide on how to install Arch on BB-x15? Mar 27 13:13:10 I doubt there are many people using arch on the x15... it should however be similar to a beaglebone. you just need a different u-boot, and you need to be sure the kernel is compatible Mar 27 13:14:02 don't even try if you don't have debug UART set up Mar 27 13:14:02 Ok, thanks. Mar 27 13:14:17 I have UART debug :) Mar 27 13:16:08 one solution would be to just grab u-boot and the contents of /boot, /lib/firmware, and /lib/modules from a working debian system and transplant those onto an arch userspace :) Mar 27 13:16:38 (u-boot is located in the space between the partition table and the rootfs partition) Mar 27 13:17:34 I might try that. Or I might just reinstall debian ;) Mar 27 13:17:50 Thanks for the help :) Mar 27 13:18:52 sticking with the default will probably make things easier, even if it's not your preferred distro :) Mar 27 13:19:46 That's true Mar 27 13:45:33 you can always just chroot/lxc/$othercontainerthing Mar 27 13:45:57 systemd-nspawn Mar 27 13:54:05 .o0(systemd-hellspawn) Mar 27 13:54:12 lol Mar 27 13:54:40 what's wrong with it? it seems to work fine for me Mar 27 13:55:05 the systemd part ;) Mar 27 13:55:45 ah, so in other words there's nothing wrong with it :) Mar 27 13:56:22 does nspawn actually require systemd? I guess it probably does Mar 27 13:56:42 it doesn't require systemd-machined in any case Mar 27 13:56:58 (I think?) Mar 27 15:49:49 hi Mar 27 16:40:28 helloo Mar 27 16:40:47 how to enable uart1,uart2,uart3????????? Mar 27 16:42:19 please reply its urgent..... Mar 27 16:46:17 nothing here is urgent. let's start with basics. Mar 27 16:46:32 which hardware do you have and which software image are you running? Mar 27 16:47:26 debian Mar 27 16:47:43 beaglebone black Mar 27 16:48:13 please be much more specific about the version of the debian image you are running. Also which kernel? Mar 27 16:49:01 ok Mar 27 16:50:20 Debian 9.3 2018-03-05 4GB SD IoT Mar 27 16:53:48 waiting for replyyy Mar 27 16:56:20 please reply sir Mar 27 17:01:07 ok, so this is a recent image Mar 27 17:01:31 yes sir Mar 27 17:01:53 you can configure the DT in Uenv for U-boot Mar 27 17:02:34 can you tell me in detail?? Mar 27 17:02:48 also you can use the config-pin tool Mar 27 17:03:08 I'm afraid I can't. I'm not really familiar with the most recent ways of setting things up. Mar 27 17:04:05 any other ways to enable uart Mar 27 17:07:50 this explains the Uenv approach https://forum.digikey.com/t/all-beaglebone-varients-u-boot-overlays/26 Mar 27 17:09:47 DT in Uenv for U-boot how to do this???? Mar 27 17:13:30 somu123: I believe in recent images, the "universal cape" already sets up most hardware (including, I suppose, the UARTs). To check, you can see if you have the corresponding devices in /dev. Mar 27 17:14:01 somu123: However, to actually make the UARTs use, you should configure the corresponding pins for UART mode, which can be done using the config-pin tool Mar 27 17:14:22 yes cape-universal and config-pin is the other option :) Mar 27 17:14:24 correct Mar 27 17:14:26 somu123: You should look up the pins that correspond to each UART (might be multiple options for each UART) Mar 27 17:15:52 somu123: e.g. for uart1: config-pin P9.24 uart && config-pin P9.26 uart Mar 27 17:20:56 somu123: note that uart3 rxd is not accessible anywhere on the expansion headers, so you'll probably want to use uart4 instead Mar 27 17:22:13 somu123: here's the list of config-pin commands for uarts 1, 2, and 4: https://pastebin.com/1z6zpNvd Mar 27 17:23:04 i m confused to enable the uart1 and uart2 so please guide me to enable for debian 9.3 Mar 27 17:23:21 somu123: use the commands in the pastebin I just gave Mar 27 17:24:08 which command Mar 27 17:25:05 ehm, do I literally have to repeat what I said 2 lines ago? Mar 27 17:27:13 we are getting the follwing error Mar 27 17:27:16 https://pastebin.com/a1CXzVrq Mar 27 17:27:42 are you booting from eMMC or from sd card? Mar 27 17:27:52 sd card Mar 27 17:29:13 you might be having trouble caused by an old version of u-boot installed on eMMC. assuming you don't care about the contents of eMMC, try wiping it with: sudo blkdiscard /dev/mmcblk1 (this will erase the entire eMMC) and then reboot and try the config-pin commands again Mar 27 17:30:00 (alternatively, installing the new image onto eMMC should also fix the problem) Mar 27 17:30:56 ok thankyou, we will reboot and try Mar 27 17:36:28 hi there channel Mar 27 17:36:40 thank you so much uart is enabled Mar 27 17:36:59 can i get ur contact number??? Mar 27 17:38:24 no Mar 27 17:39:11 thats ok thanks for ur advice.. Mar 27 17:39:34 btw it's spelled "your", not "ur" Mar 27 17:40:41 zmatt, is it possible to build a drone with bbb a5c Mar 27 17:41:35 you'll obviously need some parts besides the bbb... a bbb on its own doesn't fly very well Mar 27 17:44:56 is it possible to separate coins using opencv in beaglebone black??? Mar 27 17:46:15 that's an opencv question which doesn't really have much to do with the beaglebone specifically Mar 27 17:47:38 also, using a single question mark at the end of a question usually suffices Mar 27 17:47:45 zmatt, which other capes would it be suitable for rev.a5c Mar 27 17:48:00 for drone of course Mar 27 17:48:17 dury: the bbb revision is irrelevant for capes Mar 27 17:48:52 the only significant difference between rev A5C and rev C is the eMMC size Mar 27 17:49:14 i know that, thanks Mar 27 17:51:30 ... Mar 27 17:51:37 which other components to build except motors propellers and so on Mar 27 17:51:48 qemu and cross-compilation at its finest! Mar 27 17:52:34 14 more chapters and I will have a small image of Linux on the BBB and running some odd software I have produced. Boy! Mar 27 17:52:36 ... Mar 27 17:52:40 I am getting the jitters. Mar 27 17:52:45 dury: uhh that sounds like a rather vague and complicated question, since there's obviously not one single way to build a drone Mar 27 17:53:06 regardless, I don't have any experience with building one, so I can't offer much advice Mar 27 17:53:25 right Mar 27 17:54:40 look at this, https://www.hackster.io/patrickpoirier51/pocketpilot-an-autopilot-based-on-the-25-pocketbeagle-1fa14b Mar 27 17:57:04 drones! Mar 27 17:57:18 I love motors! Mar 27 17:57:32 Me and motors...you know. I make 'em move. Mar 27 17:57:47 is it possible with Rev. A5C. Mar 27 17:57:51 Yes. Mar 27 17:57:53 Of course. Mar 27 17:58:04 again, revision is pretty much irrelevant Mar 27 17:58:22 Like zmatt typed earlier...the difference is in whatever. So, you have the ability to produce whatever you like. Mar 27 17:58:32 I have a ground bot so far. Mar 27 17:58:50 The board does not weigh that much. Mar 27 17:59:07 the eMMC size is the only difference, which means the only problem that could show up is running out of space, which can be worked around by booting from sd card instead, or just making your system less bloated ;) Mar 27 17:59:25 Use a SD Card. Exaxt-a-mondo! Mar 27 17:59:58 Getting a good library is a start. Then just make sure your controllers work w/ the library. Mar 27 18:00:14 Dude. I have seen people make awesome boards on that Hackster.io site. Mar 27 18:00:27 boards = bots Mar 27 18:00:28 ... Mar 27 18:00:32 sorry. i got excited. Mar 27 18:01:10 Github.com has some controller ideas too. Radio! Mar 27 18:02:05 So...dury: Do you have a H-Bridge and some Motor Drivers? Mar 27 18:02:18 That would be an easy way. Mar 27 18:02:18 fortnight, with Rev. C will be better, i guess Mar 27 18:02:43 which part of *doesn't* *matter* is so hard to grasp? Mar 27 18:03:12 zmatt is right. It should not matter but if you want to update your board. I say WiFi it up w/ that BBBW. Mar 27 18:04:38 fortnight, h-bridge which cape is that Mar 27 18:04:57 dury: You can get an H-Bridge w/out a Cape and some motor Drivers. Mar 27 18:05:15 You have to do your own hardware set up but it is feasible. Mar 27 18:06:12 I think, um that site, Adafruit.com has different H-bridges and so does a lot of resellers, e.g. Mouser and etc. Mar 27 18:06:24 fortnight, h-bridge url to see what's that, please Mar 27 18:06:33 Okay. Please hold. Mar 27 18:07:05 Oh and dury: Get the h-bridge that has sockets to fit the breadboard. Testing first! Mar 27 18:07:45 https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Texas-Instruments/L293NE/?qs=N6WZOzgtpqXzYGghdbJS2Q%3D%3D&gclid=Cj0KCQjw1-fVBRC3ARIsAIifYOMRv7He-xTHFBJ1gXxGlxrfRZ701-6dAgBoUQsXADSdFORcSdMd20UaAkvFEALw_wcB Mar 27 18:07:46 ... Mar 27 18:07:50 Sorry for the long link. Mar 27 18:09:47 and where does it plug that device Mar 27 18:09:53 That is an example. They have others, esp. for motor control (not stepper motors). Mar 27 18:09:54 ... Mar 27 18:10:08 You have to wire it up to test out things first. It is not plug and play. Mar 27 18:11:11 So...you get your SRM-BBB, the reference manual for whatever h-bridge you get, and some software. Mar 27 18:11:12 ... Mar 27 18:11:16 it is a long process. Mar 27 18:11:49 dury: Something I did learn is that two is better than one. Mar 27 18:12:58 https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Texas-Instruments/L293DNE?qs=sGAEpiMZZMtKB4wrjsn3le4tUUge36PiOIF%2fXONzGOU%3d Mar 27 18:13:06 Check out this nice piece of driver. Mar 27 18:13:53 36 volts is what that H-Bridge can handle. Mar 27 18:14:00 That is awesome. Mar 27 18:14:43 I think beagleboard.org has some ideas on setting up a motor. Mar 27 18:15:29 dury: Do you need a book to read on this idea? Mar 27 18:15:44 I have one and I can copy it. It is in .pdf form. Mar 27 18:15:54 and software examples! Mar 27 18:16:59 i think beaglebone blue it will be better Mar 27 18:17:15 dury: Are you sure you want to set up a Bot to fly? Mar 27 18:18:10 Flying bots w/ radio are complicated but if you have time, DO IT and DO IT w/ pleasure! Mar 27 18:18:18 <<<< on break and sorry for the posting Mar 27 18:18:30 yeah, but it's getting difficult though Mar 27 18:19:39 i got rev. a5c and rev. c both Mar 27 18:21:24 i think with 2 bbb will fly better or what Mar 27 18:22:26 Yep. Use two. You can control one w/ the up and the other w/ the go. Mar 27 18:22:43 eh? Mar 27 18:22:47 you might need a fancy controller. Mar 27 18:23:07 using two beaglebones in a single drone sounds like an excellent way to make things pointlessly complicated Mar 27 18:23:16 Yep and fun! Mar 27 18:23:20 ... Mar 27 18:23:35 You can have a drop system for disposing of garbage in the neighbor's yard. Mar 27 18:23:58 "I do not know where those cans of soda came from, sir." Mar 27 18:24:11 ... Mar 27 18:24:22 zmatt: I am goofind around. dury knows it. Mar 27 18:24:40 fortnight, you're the best haha haha haaaa haaaa Mar 27 18:24:47 See! Mar 27 18:25:05 I smiled from a chat. This is better than sliced bread. Mar 27 18:25:13 Cheese! Mar 27 18:25:20 for sureee Mar 27 18:25:30 dury: Back to the BBB. Mar 27 18:25:37 Did you find an H-Bridge Mar 27 18:26:03 yeah that tiny device Mar 27 18:26:33 Yea. Some fit on a breadboard and you can control what happens and when w/ those things. Mar 27 18:26:54 So, if motor one needs to turn and the rest need to settle, H-bridge to the rescue. Mar 27 18:27:08 ok Mar 27 18:27:38 no idea how to wire it up Mar 27 18:27:43 There are other capes if that is interesting. I found a Motor Bridge Cape that I use currently. Mar 27 18:27:48 ... Mar 27 18:27:54 UART! Mar 27 18:28:22 which ones are Mar 27 18:28:32 on packtpub.com, there is a book. It is called, "Beaglebone Robotic Projects." This is a start. Mar 27 18:29:16 It will walk you through older software and older images but you can update and fit in things when necessary. Mar 27 18:29:41 ...It is for a rover but you can see how things work from there. Mar 27 18:29:46 don't you know roughly those motor bridge capes Mar 27 18:30:23 Sort of...I can program the Python to make two motors move in accordance w/ what I thought they would do. Mar 27 18:32:26 dury: What components do you have so far? Mar 27 18:32:58 hang on.. Mar 27 18:33:09 No issue: I need food again. Off and up and up. Mar 27 18:33:53 just 2 bbb, fortnight Mar 27 18:35:05 linux addict as well Mar 27 18:35:19 i mean, me Mar 27 18:38:09 Oh. Mar 27 18:38:12 Gotcha. Mar 27 18:40:09 fortnight, just got 2 BBB Mar 27 18:40:44 Oh. Cool. Mar 27 18:40:52 and a raspberry pi 3 Mar 27 18:40:58 These machines last forever. Mar 27 18:40:59 Oh. Mar 27 18:41:16 I have the A5c still and it is going stronger than ever. Mar 27 18:41:43 what do you use it for Mar 27 18:41:59 I put an SD card in the slot and umpteen amounts of space are mine. Mar 27 18:42:12 Many things. Mar 27 18:42:19 I test out stuff for enjoyment. Mar 27 18:42:32 I have been testing security systems, bots, and temp. stuff. Mar 27 18:42:59 ... Mar 27 18:43:00 Yep. Mar 27 18:43:19 using debian stretch or what Mar 27 18:43:49 So far. Yep. Mar 27 18:44:29 I really want to test out the pocketCNC thing they have but it costs too much right now. Mar 27 18:44:51 <<<< never getting new work loads Mar 27 18:45:07 i thnk A5C runs better with jessie Mar 27 18:45:13 Nope. Mar 27 18:45:39 You may be used to it but once you get the hang of their new set up, you will make it work easy for you. Mar 27 18:45:47 jessie is obsolete Mar 27 18:45:57 right Mar 27 18:46:01 wheezy and jessie = no mas Mar 27 18:46:11 ok Mar 27 18:46:21 I see people still use it but they complain more than I do. Mar 27 18:46:22 i see. Mar 27 18:46:54 No more maintaining on this side of things. I think maintainers are hard to find. Mar 27 18:47:00 I mean, there are people still using reeaaaally ancient crap, right ds2 ? ;-) Mar 27 18:47:25 * zmatt ducks and runs Mar 27 18:47:32 i agree with that Mar 27 18:48:02 stretch runs better Mar 27 18:51:36 dury: Do you know how to cross-compile to set up a target board (BBB)? Mar 27 18:52:19 not really Mar 27 18:52:25 sorry Mar 27 18:52:39 i wish i could Mar 27 18:52:43 me neither. I am learning. I got this book and I am updating things in it. Mar 27 18:53:16 The book was typed up in 2015, "Mastering Embedded Linux Programming." Mar 27 18:53:37 It uses some older software but I keep trying to manage the pitfalls. Mar 27 18:54:23 ... Mar 27 18:54:24 you mean the mean things Mar 27 18:54:41 Um...mean things? Mar 27 18:54:48 What do you mean? Mar 27 18:54:56 Oh...yea. Mar 27 18:54:59 The mean things. Mar 27 18:55:05 Those things. Mar 27 18:55:48 pitfalls what you mean with that Mar 27 18:56:13 I just know when I get to the last chapter and push the small, Linux kernel to the BBB, shit will hit the fan. Mar 27 18:56:28 Pitfalls...nothing working as is. Mar 27 18:56:49 i see Mar 27 18:57:03 It would be easy to just copy something and change it. Mar 27 18:57:15 Figuring things out w/ research is a tad bit more difficult. Mar 27 18:57:28 yep Mar 27 18:57:44 Some items online never get found and some are too popular. Mar 27 18:58:56 dury: I am on a recreational break now. I will chat w/ you later. Mar 27 18:59:11 For now, peace and oil/grease. Mar 27 18:59:22 ok no worries Mar 27 21:54:51 Hi! Mar 27 21:55:12 Got a problem regarding audio on the BeagleBone Black Mar 27 21:55:45 I am designing an audio cape and have succeeded in playing audio with the CS4272 codec Mar 27 21:55:57 But recording doesn't work Mar 27 21:56:15 I already worked out that it is definitely not a HW problem Mar 27 21:56:38 So it has to do with my device tree overlay or alsa isn't properly configured Mar 27 21:56:55 https://github.com/thomasfaingnaert/scriptable-guitar-pedal/blob/alsa/devicetree/beaglebone-black-codec-alsa.dts Mar 27 21:57:15 Is there anything that I might be overlooking? Mar 27 22:06:50 did you run the settings through dev.ti.com/pinmux? Mar 27 22:07:01 bou4: ^^^ Mar 27 22:07:49 did my message to bou4 go through from riot? Mar 27 22:10:23 bou4: yt? Mar 27 22:11:03 i’m wondering if you used dev.ti.com/pinmux. Mar 27 22:12:54 I am receiving it! Mar 27 22:13:18 k. audio in or my messages? Mar 27 22:13:27 Your messages Mar 27 22:13:46 I am not able to visit dev.ti.com/pinmux Mar 27 22:13:57 Oh, I do, albeit very slowly Mar 27 22:14:23 i wonder if there is a valid mode for that pinmux set. Mar 27 22:14:45 Don't know if the pinmux is incorrect as all the rest is working Mar 27 22:15:04 just because you can set the pinmux mode on the pins, that doesn’t mean it is necessarily a valid combination. Mar 27 22:15:38 is the pinmux setup used on another board in bb.org-overlays? Mar 27 22:16:12 It's heavily influenced by Bela Mar 27 22:16:38 same I2S configuration? Mar 27 22:17:10 https://github.com/BelaPlatform/Bela/blob/master/resources/wheezy/dtb/BB-BONE-BAREAUDI-02-00A0.dts Mar 27 22:17:52 It doesn't set "exclusive-use" for axr0, the receiving data I2S line Mar 27 22:18:09 which I did set, because not setting it seemed rather strange to me Mar 27 22:18:15 k. that knocks out what I thought would be the obvious issue. Mar 27 22:18:59 And it isn't an hardware problem as I checked my signals with an oscilloscope and they are rather clean Mar 27 22:19:08 Had some trouble with ringing, but fixed it with a resistor Mar 27 22:25:25 using DMA? Mar 27 22:25:50 can probably test registers with devmem2 or omapconf. Mar 27 22:26:27 alsacon Mar 27 22:26:41 er, alsamixer show anything? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Mar 28 03:00:01 2018
