**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Mar 04 02:59:57 2020 Mar 04 03:01:03 Hooked up new mini USB hub. Now BBB dosen't recognize preformatted stick. Says bad superblocks. Am now trying to format new stick.mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda thinks it's a DOS partition??? . Mar 04 03:03:16 Hmm. Good question. Mar 04 03:03:28 I am stuck dealing w/ OpenCL right now and compilation. Mar 04 03:03:34 Maybe someone else is around. Mar 04 03:06:11 Hey. Mar 04 03:06:19 KenUnix: what is the issue again? Mar 04 03:06:35 preformatted disk? Mar 04 03:06:38 What is that? Mar 04 03:06:57 Can't find valid F2FS filesystem in 1th superblock Mar 04 03:07:08 Oh. Odd. Mar 04 03:07:13 I never once came across that issue. Mar 04 03:07:15 Hmm. Mar 04 03:07:17 Thats with stick on new mini hub Mar 04 03:07:58 What does "with stick" refer to? Mar 04 03:09:03 Removing hub and mounting stick direcly to BBB works Mar 04 03:09:26 stick = USB memory stick Mar 04 03:09:32 Got it. Mar 04 03:10:07 Okay, so? You are trying to stick a USB Stick in a USB Hub but it cannot be read correctly? Mar 04 03:10:54 Have you applied power to the hub? Is the chipset of the USB Hub having the access/capabilities for reading whatever file type you are trying to read? Mar 04 03:10:58 And if stick is directly in BBB it comes up as /dev/sda1 on mini hub its /dev/sda ?? Mar 04 03:11:32 KenUnix: Maybe there are many /dev/sda(s) available on the USB Hub. Mar 04 03:11:34 Well it claims linux support Mar 04 03:11:45 Right but from kernel 3.6, most likely. Mar 04 03:11:54 Or Ubuntu 16.04? Mar 04 03:12:09 it says above 2.xx kernel Mar 04 03:12:42 See, maybe the hub is outdated. I really do not know. What chipset USB Hub do you have? Mar 04 03:15:04 Have you typed lsusb? Mar 04 03:19:07 yes. when in mini hub memory stick activity led keeps blinking Mar 04 03:20:26 i can access stick formatted when on hub. weird. Mar 04 03:22:13 fdisk on stick in hub is Disklabel type: dos even though i formatted it as type 83 linux Mar 04 03:22:57 Oh. Mar 04 03:23:05 Odd. I am not that good w/ file types. Mar 04 03:23:13 me thinks problem with hub Mar 04 03:23:29 I mean, you got fat, fatxx, and ext4 and before that... Mar 04 03:24:25 I guess we are waiting on TI.com to promote the cores on the AI (am5729) for the SDK RTOS? Mar 04 03:28:54 oh fuddy duddy... Now i can't format stick. only common denominator is new hub. Mar 04 03:29:44 How am i supposed to use wifi adapter AND usb stick?????????????????????? Mar 04 03:31:08 take a hammer to this. Mar 04 03:31:52 Oh. Mar 04 03:31:53 Ha. Mar 04 03:32:21 No hammer. Mar 04 03:32:25 Superblock up my wazzu Mar 04 03:32:34 Yeppers. Mar 04 03:33:18 trying to format stick but must delete partition completely and restart Mar 04 03:34:39 Oh. Mar 04 03:34:40 Got it. Mar 04 03:34:46 So, this may need to happen. Mar 04 03:35:13 Go to realtek.com or wherever your chipset is from on your computer, i.e. not the BBB. Mar 04 03:35:32 Or go to...dang it. Mar 04 03:35:37 This is a bit off subject. Mar 04 03:35:40 But...here goes. Mar 04 03:36:01 Open device drivers. Stop the driver for realtek or USB. Then, restart it. Mar 04 03:36:22 Make sure your USB has been unplugged first. Mar 04 03:38:21 Still says: Found a dos partition table in /dev/sda Mar 04 03:39:01 Okay. GO to the microsoft site and check it out. Mar 04 03:40:34 Humm ==> Open device drivers? Mar 04 03:42:12 if i have a stick formatted on BBB OK you would think plugging it in to hub would also work. Mar 04 03:43:23 Right but maybe not. Mar 04 03:43:46 why Mar 04 03:45:20 B/c of the lack of an actual OS. Mar 04 03:45:24 W/ tons of drivers. Mar 04 03:46:04 I will go back and put question to seller Mar 04 03:46:28 No. Mar 04 03:46:32 Get this man. Mar 04 03:46:55 I think you can go to file explorer in Win, and eject it. Try it. Mar 04 03:58:01 Have you seen the rtsc? It is going to take forever for this board to get support. Mar 04 04:04:19 The what RTSC ? Mar 04 04:10:23 Some odd stuff that needs to be read for the DSPs to work, I think. Who knows? Wild goose chase, maybe. Satisfying if corret...YES! Mar 04 04:11:59 I'm outta here. too much for one night. Posted message regarding issues to seller. Mar 04 04:13:55 Okay. Later. Mar 04 04:24:18 Is there a ti-rt-channel image for the AI yet? Mar 04 04:56:26 back to Ubuntu to start...I might be gone for a while. Enjoy the peace and quiet. Mar 04 08:36:50 I had problem on To flash BeagleBone Black's eMMC memory from SD card Mar 04 08:37:12 i had following these steps Mar 04 08:38:37 cmdline=init=/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh ? To make this edit, which will cause the SD card to automatically flash any bbb you turn on with the SD card in it, you just need to follow these steps. Mar 04 08:38:37 SD card. Mar 04 08:38:40 save your change and exit the txt file. Mar 04 08:39:36 yep, whether that line in /boot/uEnv.txt (on the sd card) is commented out or not determines whether the sd card will boot normally or flash to eMMC Mar 04 12:36:57 Does OpenCL only work w/ RTOS instead of the AI image that is currently being distributed? Mar 04 13:27:34 set_: no, opencl should work out of the box afaik Mar 04 13:34:12 Oh. Mar 04 13:34:39 I thought it would not compile still b/c it needs to be on rt kernels. Mar 04 13:34:44 no? Mar 04 13:34:51 opencl has absolutely nothing to do with real-time Mar 04 13:34:55 Okay. Mar 04 13:35:30 I thought we had to compile, on the AI, the OpenCL libraries for use? Mar 04 13:35:36 definitely not Mar 04 13:35:45 What? Okay. That is good news. Mar 04 13:36:10 I have been "barking up the wrong tree again." Thank you. Mar 04 13:36:34 I put the rt kernel on the AI and it ceased to work. Mar 04 13:36:46 yeah that doesn't surprise me Mar 04 13:36:47 I have to reinstall my image. Mar 04 13:37:00 rt kernels tend to be buggier than non-rt kernels Mar 04 13:37:08 it doesn't boot at all anymore? Mar 04 13:37:27 Oh, it does but not w/ the rt kernel on it. Mar 04 13:37:35 I cannot get into ssh. Mar 04 13:37:37 that's what I meant Mar 04 13:37:49 are you trying to connect to it via wifi or usb? Mar 04 13:37:56 because iirc it's the wifi driver that's broken on -rt Mar 04 13:38:02 USB and then wifi. Mar 04 13:38:04 Oh! Mar 04 13:38:29 I connect the board via USB-C to USB3.0. Mar 04 13:38:41 But, I use WiFi for the installations and development. Mar 04 13:38:54 I guess I could have tried it w/ ethernet. Mar 04 13:39:16 either ethernet or usb-networking Mar 04 13:39:34 I have not used usb-networking once and I might never. Who knows? Mar 04 13:39:53 I have an Ethernet cable. So, I will most likely go w/ that idea. Mar 04 13:39:57 If... Mar 04 13:40:04 If I ever try the rt kernel again. Mar 04 13:40:27 you've never used usb networking? that seems unlikely given that's how people connect to beaglebones most commonly Mar 04 13:40:47 Oh. I thought you meant for networking. Mar 04 13:40:56 Yea. I use USB all the time. Mar 04 13:41:03 I did say usb networking yes Mar 04 13:41:16 that's why I said usb networking... because I meant usb networking Mar 04 13:41:16 I am missing something here. Mar 04 13:41:23 Okay, okay. Mar 04 13:41:25 :P Mar 04 13:41:29 Ha. Mar 04 13:42:01 I have not been able to install w/ apt anything w/out WiFi or Ethernet. Mar 04 13:42:03 as in, when you connect a bbb via usb and connect to 192.168.7.2 (or 192.168.6.2 on mac/linux) ... that's usb networking Mar 04 13:42:04 That is what I meant. Mar 04 13:42:15 Oh. Okay. Mar 04 13:42:25 Yes then. I have used usb networking. Mar 04 13:43:14 I have not been able to use USB Networking w/out Ethernet/WiFi to get online, though. Mar 04 13:43:23 that's not what I was talking about Mar 04 13:43:25 For wget or git. Mar 04 13:43:27 Okay. Mar 04 13:43:36 I misunderstood. Mar 04 13:44:01 @zmatt: Guess what i am doing? Mar 04 13:44:40 I am trying my hand at the rt kernel w/ the AI and cross-compiling on an Ubuntu machine. Neat, heh? Mar 04 13:45:38 TI's wiki has tons of info. and their new wiki is packed full of ideas. I have unlimited readings ahead of me. Mar 04 13:46:02 I am putting OE on it w/ rocko. Mar 04 13:46:22 I would strongly advise against using an rt kernel on the AI Mar 04 13:46:44 or in general actually unless you have a very specific need for it, but especially on the AI since it's known-buggy Mar 04 13:47:50 Right, I get that. Mar 04 13:48:13 I want to learn more. So, items will be detailed further in my quest for "computerism." Mar 04 13:48:25 also, funky... this is what the night sky might look like if the Andromeda Galaxy were bright enough to allow it to be seen entirely with naked eye (not just the brightest part in the middle): https://i.imgur.com/OeBdSQv.jpg Mar 04 13:48:27 Buggy is bad, okay. . Mar 04 13:49:01 Hey, how did you get imgur to work? Mar 04 13:49:08 ? Mar 04 13:49:12 "get imgur to work" ? Mar 04 13:49:16 I tried a while back and it was not free? Mar 04 13:49:29 no idea, this is just a random image floating around on the internet Mar 04 13:49:30 I started to use google sharing. Mar 04 13:49:32 pretty sure it's free though Mar 04 13:49:34 Oh. Mar 04 13:49:43 I was afraid to sign up or something. Mar 04 13:49:52 I am off to check. Mar 04 13:50:32 Yep. Still free and still works. Mar 04 13:50:34 Hmm. Mar 04 13:50:42 Oh well. Mar 04 15:48:57 m Mar 04 15:49:43 m Mar 04 19:03:23 I just scrolled imgur. I am forever not smart not. Mar 04 19:03:26 not = now Mar 04 19:09:16 Some humor relief. Mar 04 21:07:12 Yea boy! Mar 04 21:28:22 Hey KenUnix: Did you ever get your BBB up? Mar 04 21:55:11 BBBup or BBB up. You mean get it working right? Mar 04 21:55:32 Right! Mar 04 21:55:44 Up and running! Mar 04 21:55:47 I got lazy. Mar 04 22:11:02 TI's new wiki is nice and has a ton of info. It actually has so much info, I would need three of me full-time to address it. Mar 04 22:11:18 They have stuff regarding the BBB too. Mar 04 22:12:17 What's the url? set_ no but got info from P Mar 04 22:12:51 Plugable. It's a "Terminus FE 1.1s chipset Mar 04 22:13:10 Plugable. It's a "Terminus FE 1.1s chipset " Mar 04 22:13:54 Now does BBB support this chip-set? Mar 04 22:14:28 Its here: http://solution.ve.m-online.net/en/products/chips/Terminus_Technology_USB_2.0_High_Speed_USB_Hub_EN.html Mar 04 22:15:38 Okay. Mar 04 22:15:41 Adafruit has entire spec at: https://cdn-shop.adafruit.com/product-files/2991/FE1.1s+Data+Sheet+(Rev.+1.0).pdf Mar 04 22:16:18 I think it is the kernel that needs to support it and if the kernel does not have a driver, you might need to make one. Mar 04 22:16:32 I will find a link real quickly for the wiki from TI. Mar 04 22:16:57 KenUnix: you're linking to usb hubs Mar 04 22:17:10 are you really asking whether linux supports usb hubs? Mar 04 22:18:05 What I trying to do is attach a flash drive & wifi attachment Mar 04 22:18:29 Yes, to hubs Mar 04 22:18:56 so get a random usb hub online or in a nearby store Mar 04 22:20:33 if it's powered usb hub you might want to avoid the cheapest ones maybe (some can be harmful to the host if they're really badly designed) Mar 04 22:20:55 for bus-powered ones quality really doesn't matter much... worst case it's a bit flimsy :P Mar 04 22:21:10 http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/docs/06_02_00_81/linux/Release_Specific_PLSDK_Release_Notes.html is one site but TI has many pages concerning the advancement of the BBB. Mar 04 22:21:29 ... Mar 04 22:21:30 I did. I got a "Plugable" powered USB-2 4-port hub but the BBB dosen't like the flash drive. Without the hub the flash drive work fine. When on the hub trying to mount flash results in messages complsining about super blocks can't be found. Without a hub no problem. Mar 04 22:21:58 Maybe you plugged it in incorrectly? Mar 04 22:21:59 uhh that sounds really odd Mar 04 22:22:13 I have gotten wires crossed before. Mar 04 22:23:00 KenUnix: can you please share your kernel log (via e.g. pastebin.com) ? or at least the part related to the usb device being found and your attempt to mount it? Mar 04 22:23:11 The hub works fine on y Windoze 10 laptop Mar 04 22:24:10 KenUnix: The PSDK from TI is not supported by Beagleboard.org, though. Just a heads up. You are own your own if you take that route. Mar 04 22:24:21 KenUnix: why are you talking about the PSDK? Mar 04 22:24:25 set_: Mar 04 22:24:28 (sorry) Mar 04 22:24:34 My Internet is down again on the BBB. I can ping external addresses. can't reference by name. Mar 04 22:24:58 zmatt, PSDK not me Mar 04 22:25:05 KenUnix: I meant set_ Mar 04 22:25:42 very little to that hub IC Mar 04 22:26:14 KenUnix: and just dump the kernel log with "dmesg" or "journalctl -k --no-pager" and then copy-paste it to pastebin.com Mar 04 22:26:43 GenTooMan look here ===> Adafruit has entire spec at: https://cdn-shop.adafruit.com/product-files/2991/FE1.1s+Data+Sheet+(Rev.+1.0).pdf Mar 04 22:27:49 KenUnix: a usb hub is a usb hub... the host-hub protocol is part of the usb spec itself Mar 04 22:28:27 hold Mar 04 22:36:32 set_ here? Mar 04 22:36:37 Oh...wait. That is me. Mar 04 22:36:47 It's at: https://pastebin.com/04724MCe Mar 04 22:37:20 @zmatt: I was discussing it b/c it is supported on the AI. Mar 04 22:37:30 Linux and RTOS. Mar 04 22:38:28 I found some articles on the ti wiki and found a guy on e2e that told me my thoughts were truly correct. Mar 04 22:38:31 ehm, yes, ditto on the BBB ... but so what? Mar 04 22:38:39 what thoughts about what? Mar 04 22:38:55 But, the BBB needs the EVM right? Mar 04 22:39:15 For transferring the data or can you do it on Ubuntu machines? Mar 04 22:39:24 KenUnix: looks like you're trying to mount /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 Mar 04 22:39:28 zmatt, It's at: https://pastebin.com/04724MCe Mar 04 22:39:42 You guys... Mar 04 22:40:05 set_: ???? Mar 04 22:40:43 It was just the wrong mounting file. Mar 04 22:40:58 yeah this has nothing to do with the usb hub Mar 04 22:41:00 just the wrong path Mar 04 22:41:03 Right. Mar 04 22:41:06 Oops. Mar 04 22:41:21 At least, it is not the wires being criss crossed. Mar 04 22:41:33 <<<_____ My issue Mar 04 22:41:59 OK. Stupid question. how do you determine what the heck is mountable? Mar 04 22:42:52 There are no "stupid" questions. Only not so smart questions. Mar 04 22:43:02 Lesson from Seth! Mar 04 22:43:04 KenUnix: well the fact that there are partitions automatically implies that the drive itself isn't a filesystem Mar 04 22:43:07 Narley, dude Mar 04 22:43:23 Aw. Mar 04 22:43:28 also, you formatted it yourself :P Mar 04 22:43:59 OK I formatted it as /dev/sda Mar 04 22:44:10 no you didn't Mar 04 22:44:19 call it /dev/sda1 Mar 04 22:45:42 You guys... I just inserted an SD card reader. How do I know what to mount it as? Mar 04 22:46:00 Oh. Mar 04 22:46:08 Please hold. I will go and check. Mar 04 22:46:23 KenUnix: usually it'll be the one and only partition of the device Mar 04 22:47:09 KenUnix: You want a command right? Mar 04 22:47:21 command would be the same as you already had working Mar 04 22:47:24 lsusb reportes it as : Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:0307 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Card Reader Mar 04 22:47:31 that's of no use Mar 04 22:47:40 I remember this issue from years ago. Mar 04 22:47:47 I asked the same question. Mar 04 22:49:16 mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb worked Mar 04 22:49:23 I would have to go through my records. Mar 04 22:49:29 Odd. Mar 04 22:49:39 Yea boy! Mar 04 22:49:45 nothing "odd" about that Mar 04 22:49:58 Odd that I asked the same question a year ago. Mar 04 22:50:32 since it's the second external storage device attached it's /dev/sdb and of that it's the first (and presumably only) partition, i.e. /dev/sdb1 Mar 04 22:50:40 Now if I only had the SD card loaded I would have to use /dev/sda1 not /dev/sdb1 rite? Mar 04 22:51:22 lsblk Mar 04 22:51:34 Use that command! Mar 04 22:51:35 yes, these device paths are not stable, the kernel just picks whichever is the first available Mar 04 22:51:39 lsblk can be useful indeed Mar 04 22:52:10 KenUnix: Run lsblk on your terminal. Mar 04 22:53:19 dev. desktop terminal. Mar 04 22:54:17 or lsblk -a Mar 04 22:54:41 set_, yes it worked well, thanks. Yea Boy. Mar 04 22:54:54 Otay. Mar 04 22:55:47 So, what exactly is the end goal? Mar 04 22:55:54 For the Cape? Mar 04 22:57:02 Anyway, no issue. Mar 04 22:57:10 Yea Boy. I like lsblk. Didn't have that on my HP-9000 server running HP-UX Mar 04 22:58:17 My whole work space is now cluttered with flash drives, cables, hub, SDcards... Mar 04 22:58:41 Ain't computers great? Mar 04 22:59:21 zmatt, thanks a lot. so the hub is ok it was stupid me Mar 04 22:59:30 correct Mar 04 23:00:01 one step ahead. two steps back. Mar 04 23:00:57 At least I'm honest about it. Mar 04 23:01:31 set_, I found out why ny laptop was intermittently clicking. Mar 04 23:02:37 It was the freenode setting: Mute sound notifications Mar 04 23:03:30 Ding-a-Ling Dinners here. Mar 04 23:03:40 I'll be back Mar 04 23:11:11 Oh. Mar 04 23:11:23 I'll just be Bach then. Mar 04 23:11:41 bark... Mar 04 23:11:53 Oh you're Beethoven Mar 04 23:11:58 YOu got it! Mar 04 23:13:02 I ate a food service again. Barf. I feel bad. How can this glorious BBB help me solve my food service concern? Mar 04 23:13:28 I saw the person that made a burger, the first, maker out of the bbb brains. Mar 04 23:14:28 It is funny. Automation is everywhere but not here. Mar 04 23:15:23 Box handlers still exist instead of machines picking and placing. I guess machinery costs too much (think long term). Mar 04 23:26:43 the problem is if you replace people in jobs with machines eventually it won't balance and becomes an unsustainable situation. Mar 04 23:27:48 All economies collapse on a regular basis messing with it just makes things worse. Mar 04 23:32:04 it'll just shift the jobs around Mar 04 23:32:17 so instead of box handlers, you have machine repair folks Mar 04 23:33:22 until you have the full blown skynet scenario :D Mar 04 23:33:26 Right. Mar 04 23:33:28 Right. Mar 04 23:33:33 Ha. Mar 04 23:33:51 Skynet is terminator stuff, right? Mar 04 23:34:02 "I'll, be back!" Mar 04 23:34:18 :) Mar 04 23:34:25 Has anyone messed w/ anime.js yet? Mar 04 23:35:07 I found their site by pure luck and I think I am going to make a funny globe on my site that levitates and bleeds orbital ooze. Mar 04 23:35:10 what's that? Mar 04 23:35:16 Here...I will show you. Mar 04 23:35:36 https://github.com/juliangarnier/anime Mar 04 23:35:46 It is a js engine for anime. Mar 04 23:36:17 If you go to their site, they have some neat stuff to fool w/. Mar 04 23:40:43 Their github page has a living, breathing orb of some sort on it. I think it is neat. Mar 04 23:42:15 Yea Boy! Is there an easy to see if the BBB is runninh DNS? Mar 04 23:42:23 weirdly interesting set_ Mar 04 23:42:27 Right. Mar 04 23:43:27 Interesting but cannot be built on the BBGW. Mar 04 23:43:29 Dang it. Mar 04 23:43:41 I might try their manual download next. Mar 04 23:44:42 I suggest you play with it on your windoze machine first then try it on something humbler. Mar 04 23:46:02 It seems it is affialated or a part to beagleboard.org somehow. Or... Mar 04 23:46:23 At least the fellow that made the scripts uses bonescript and roboticscape libraries. Mar 04 23:59:59 set_, OK starting fresh. instead of manually manipulating /etc/network/interfaces to set USB0 IP,Gateway,mask have you done it with connmanctl? Mar 05 00:02:06 Yes. Mar 05 00:02:14 services Mar 05 00:02:23 agent on Mar 05 00:02:37 connect Mar 05 00:03:06 Can u give me an example Mar 05 00:03:15 Okay. Mar 05 00:03:19 Please hold. Mar 05 00:04:04 I need to change default 192.168.7.2 to 169.168.137.3 and change GW Mar 05 00:04:21 I need to change default 192.168.7.2 to 169.168.137.2 and change GW Mar 05 00:05:00 Internet sharing on Windoze 10 want to use 192.168.137.1 Mar 05 00:05:13 Internet sharing on Windoze 10 want to use 192.168.137.1 and 2 Mar 05 00:05:51 https://pastebin.com/07iyCWpc Mar 05 00:05:59 first type connmanctl Mar 05 00:06:05 brb Mar 05 00:07:55 Nice, but I am not talking wifi. That has not come in yet. I'm talking USB to P.C. USB Mar 05 00:08:34 Oh. Mar 05 00:08:41 USB to PC. Mar 05 00:08:47 192.168.7.2 Mar 05 00:09:07 w/ PuTTY or if you are on Linux, ssh debian@192.168.7.2 Mar 05 00:09:30 Then, once in to the terminal, type ip addr. Mar 05 00:09:35 You will find your IP Addr. Mar 05 00:09:38 Ha. Mar 05 00:09:44 brb, seriously. I have to go. Mar 05 00:10:18 Yea, but to do internet sharing w/p.c. i need to use 192.168.137.2 Mar 05 00:12:02 ===> brb, seriously. I have to go. Funny guy <=== Mar 05 00:17:10 This didn't work: config ipv4 manual 192.168.137.2 255.255.255.0.0 192.168.137.1 Mar 05 00:21:28 Oh. Mar 05 00:21:29 Okay. Mar 05 00:21:44 That is for WiFi, I thought. Mar 05 00:21:59 I had to run to the place to get a meal. Mar 05 00:24:53 KenUnix: I will read this book and I will post on it in a bit. Mar 05 00:25:14 I have never needed internet sharing via USB. Mar 05 00:28:11 Okay... Mar 05 00:29:04 KenUnix: Are you using a USB directly connected to your development desktop? If so, go to PuTTY on Windows or ssh debian@192.168.7.2. Mar 05 00:29:20 I do not know of how to connect to online access via usb. I am sorry. Mar 05 00:29:30 I will see if there is a tutorial floating around. Mar 05 00:36:57 https://www.digikey.com/en/maker/blogs/how-to-connect-a-beaglebone-black-to-the-internet-using-usb is something I found. Odd. Mar 05 00:37:16 I did not know USB "networking" was possible via USB. Mar 05 00:37:35 The book failed me for tonight. Mar 05 00:38:00 I am trying to get access to my BeagleBone Black with a new software on the micro SD Card, it now asks me for a password when I login as root. Just hitting return got me in on the previous load. Mar 05 00:38:36 Anyone know what the password would be? Mar 05 00:39:42 temppwd Mar 05 00:40:00 am I right or am I right? Mar 05 00:40:00 Thanks, I will try it Mar 05 00:40:09 Okay. Mar 05 00:42:20 access denied Mar 05 00:42:25 that is not it Mar 05 00:42:57 Hmm. Let me go check again. Mar 05 00:43:03 thanks Mar 05 00:44:58 Either temppwd or tmppwd. Mar 05 00:45:03 Let me check one more source. Mar 05 00:45:18 the second did not work either Mar 05 00:45:32 Thanks Mar 05 00:45:53 Hmm. Are you on Debian 10? Mar 05 00:46:04 9 I think it is Mar 05 00:46:20 Did you get your image from BBB.io/latest-images? Mar 05 00:46:42 9.5 Mar 05 00:47:14 I would have to go look Mar 05 00:47:21 Did you get your image from beagleboard.org/latest-images? Mar 05 00:47:37 where the Beagole Bone guided me to Mar 05 00:47:51 Which one do you own? Mar 05 00:48:05 BeagleBone Black Mar 05 00:48:08 Oh. You signed in on Cloud9? Mar 05 00:49:05 no BeagleBone Black rev 00C0 S/N 3016BBBK1578 running BoneScript 0.7.0 at beaglebone.local Mar 05 00:49:33 Hmm. Try 192.168.7.2 instead. Mar 05 00:49:33 using putty via ssh Mar 05 00:49:37 Okay. Mar 05 00:50:11 yes that is the IP address, try it as the password? Mar 05 00:50:24 password should be temppwd Mar 05 00:50:33 Unless someone changed it? Mar 05 00:51:14 hostname = debian && password = temppwd Mar 05 00:51:34 Sorry. Mar 05 00:51:37 user = debian Mar 05 00:52:22 I will try debian instead of root and see what I get Mar 05 00:52:28 Yea. Mar 05 00:52:30 That is it. Mar 05 00:52:45 The newer images have debian as the user and temppwd as the password. Mar 05 00:53:15 You can still use root access via sudo. Mar 05 00:54:27 yes that got me in, is that the same as root then? Mar 05 00:54:34 thanks so much Mar 05 00:54:52 root on the old images was the user and had sudo access. Mar 05 00:55:07 okay Mar 05 00:55:10 It is a bit complicated to me to describe. Mar 05 00:55:18 what is sudo? Mar 05 00:55:33 I am kinda new to this, using a make manual Mar 05 00:55:40 sudo apt install python3-dev Mar 05 00:55:49 okay Mar 05 00:55:49 sudo gives you root access. Mar 05 00:55:54 okay Mar 05 00:56:13 sudo is for changing specific files and dir. on the BBB when root is needed. Mar 05 00:56:37 It works year round on Ubuntu, Debian, and other Debian flavors. Mar 05 00:56:48 Speaking of, I really never read about root or sudo. Mar 05 00:57:02 I just use them blindly at times. Mar 05 00:57:15 Well... Mar 05 00:57:18 I will see what I can do with this, I need to change some things on the board so I can get the SD image onto the board Mar 05 00:57:26 Okay. Mar 05 00:57:44 Thanks for your help Mar 05 00:57:52 Yep, you are welcome. Mar 05 00:57:56 BBB! Mar 05 00:58:19 If you want to know more about sudo, type sudo debian in the browser. Mar 05 00:58:31 'okay, thanks Mar 05 00:59:54 You are welcome. I was just reading more about sudo. It seems it is so one superuser can delegate activities on the machine while others. Mar 05 00:59:56 HBlah. Mar 05 01:04:47 JimBobRay! Mar 05 01:04:57 Not to name any names. Mar 05 01:12:54 Woff Woff Mar 05 01:15:51 Any body home. My connection dropped again? Mar 05 01:26:38 Hey, what are you doin' now? Mar 05 01:27:12 Did you see that link I posted for internet access via USB? Mar 05 01:28:29 No... Mar 05 01:28:45 Oh? Mar 05 01:28:53 Come on, man. I will get it again. Mar 05 01:29:44 My connection dropped at 20:00? Mar 05 01:31:47 https://www.digikey.com/en/maker/blogs/how-to-connect-a-beaglebone-black-to-the-internet-using-usb via 2016. Try it out. Who knows? Mar 05 01:39:37 Thanks set_. With all this re-booting stuff my P.C. side COM4 port has become COM6. Anyway to change it? Mar 05 01:39:59 What, the port number? Mar 05 01:40:16 COM6 instead of COM4, then. Mar 05 01:40:38 I guess. I do not change port numbers often on my system. I only have so many USB outlets. Mar 05 01:42:01 Well it did it to me while playing and rebooting BBB Mar 05 01:42:37 Oh. Mar 05 01:42:39 Okay. Mar 05 01:43:09 Try to type in the port number before or after shutting down your BBB. Mar 05 01:44:46 on side note I did successfully reflash my BBB and delete stuff I can't use (anyways) so I suppose now I should be able to run my SPI code (finally). set_ if you want to see what the anime.js does https://animejs.com/documentation/ Mar 05 01:45:15 I looked. Mar 05 01:45:24 The dependencies are enormous. Mar 05 01:45:34 I see why you directed me to try on the PC first. Mar 05 01:50:25 set_ :D I try to keep you sane(r). I'm not sure it would be useful for you on an embedded system. So if you think it's cool mess with it on the PC some so you decide what you could use it for first. Mar 05 01:50:56 Right. I like to try on the small system so I do not infect my virus w/ my computer. Mar 05 01:50:57 Ha. Mar 05 01:52:45 You could build a linux box out of older parts I suppose? Mar 05 01:53:52 I guess, boxes! Mar 05 01:54:15 Use that for testing stuff. Debian is not bad for beginners, don't try GenToo as your brain will possibly melt. Slackware is more challenging and your brain WILL melt, because you won't have a GUI to install with. Mar 05 01:54:54 Well the same goes with GenToo but it's more obvious how to install with it :D Mar 05 01:55:27 Linux is excelent to use on older PC's newer ones not so great. Mar 05 02:00:54 If you are running Windoze 10 you could install Oracle Virtual Box and run almost any Linux. Mar 05 02:04:24 GUI! Mar 05 02:04:49 You can dual boot. Mar 05 02:05:27 Fair warning you can't trust windows OS. So if you want to experiment with something Linux is much easier to fix and reinstall. Mar 05 02:06:05 Windows costs too much, man. I can pitch in when I can for Linux but buying the latest-newest is not really feasible. Mar 05 02:09:16 With Windoze & Virtual machines you don't need to dual boot. You could also try WSL for Windozes and run Debian, Ubuntu, etc. They share the same space so no virtual nachine Mar 05 02:09:47 I finally got anime.js compiling on the BBGW. Mar 05 02:09:56 Success! Mar 05 02:10:57 WSL for Windoze Debian & Ubuntu were originally command prompt. But get a free Xserver and run a GUI. Mar 05 02:12:42 this animejs stuff is not easy to understand for me thus far. Mar 05 02:13:09 They have a ton of examples but no server.js. I guess I will have to make one. Mar 05 02:13:28 All their ex. are in .html. Mar 05 02:31:15 8) Mar 05 02:31:58 I don't see a problem with using a CLI KenUnix the first time I used a GUI on Linux was 1994 to be honest. Mar 05 02:45:43 Well yea when I started in Unix back in 74' we used VT-100 terminals and DEC-Writers Mar 05 02:46:35 Enough old alk. Mar 05 02:46:44 Enough old talk. Mar 05 02:48:16 The best I can do with that would be having a VT-220 :D I got it for $10 though LOL. Mar 05 02:49:07 I had used then with Northern Telecom PBX's. I didn't like them. Mar 05 02:54:44 heh. I liked them for the smooth scrolling and I could reload the fonts, the 132 character wide mode was nice. And the sixel graphics (Linux Pengiun) at login was kind of cool. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Mar 05 02:59:56 2020
