**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Sep 27 03:02:45 2020 Sep 27 03:06:24 I had some boards working on this 'puter the other day. Sep 27 03:06:27 Hmm. Sep 27 03:06:31 It is this 'puter. Sep 27 03:06:40 I just plugged it in on another one and it booted. Sep 27 03:08:04 Maybe it is the older version of PuTTY. Sep 27 03:10:38 serial works but not TTY. Sep 27 03:12:05 Update! Sep 27 03:12:09 It workeths. Sep 27 03:12:24 w/ serial, I got wifi up and running. Sep 27 03:14:53 I wonder what the issue is? Is anyone interested in journalctl -x? Sep 27 03:42:48 pastebin it Sep 27 03:44:09 i do not understand what you mean serial work tty not work Sep 27 03:45:29 you need to connect with ssh to 192.168.7.2 Sep 27 03:45:55 on mine its user debian Sep 27 03:46:07 password whatever is set as password Sep 27 03:46:55 set_: Sep 27 03:47:00 ^ Sep 27 03:52:58 Sorry. Sep 27 03:53:11 It all works now! Sep 27 03:53:28 It was this computer for some reason and this computer only. Sep 27 03:53:36 Blah. Sep 27 03:53:56 I already unplugged w/ a victory of keeping all my data and the image! Sep 27 04:29:11 renrelkha: serial on the BBB works too. It is not just about connecting via the ip address. You can use a COM port. Sep 27 04:31:20 ic Sep 27 04:32:06 instead of COM on Win, Linux uses /dev/ttyS0 or whatever. Sep 27 04:32:24 So, you can sign in via your serial console instead of just the IP. Sep 27 04:33:50 i have no interest in connecting without ssh, but it is good to know the option is there Sep 27 04:34:04 for debugging the issue w/ the ssh. Right. Sep 27 04:34:52 If you cannot reach your board via ssh, use the serial setup for debugging. Also, there is the six pin debug cable for serial usage on the BBB and other boards. Sep 27 04:35:20 I think it is a serial to TTY debug cable. I would have to look it up again. Sep 27 04:35:33 It is not located on the BBBlue, though. Sep 27 04:36:25 sorry. serial to TTL. Sep 27 04:36:39 not TTY. Oops. Sep 27 04:37:48 fun Sep 27 04:38:18 https://www.ftdichip.com/Products/USBTTLSerial.htm <<< they have the most expensive but they are well made. Sep 27 04:38:36 Sturdy as a fox' butt! Sep 27 04:41:36 Oh and if you ever have to get one, use the 3.3v version. The 5v version may be better suited for TTL tech. Sep 27 04:42:15 No matter how many times I look up this info, I always get different answers about CMOS and TTL logic. Sep 27 04:42:25 i just use a esp8266 dev module Sep 27 04:42:37 For debugging your connection? Sep 27 04:43:24 you can disable the esp chip and use the onboard ch340g to talk to other stuff Sep 27 04:43:25 Or for debugging the issues w/ the BBBlue? Sep 27 04:43:31 Oh. Sep 27 04:43:32 Okay. Sep 27 04:43:56 it is usb to serial adapt that is built in to them Sep 27 04:44:02 Oh. Sep 27 04:44:06 I was about to look that up. Sep 27 04:44:29 I wonder how to debug the BBBlue if things go awry? Sep 27 04:44:51 It does not have the debug connect for the TTL serial cable. Sep 27 04:45:23 Forget it. It is on the back and unpopulated. Sep 27 04:45:45 I guess one could use an iron to solder the parts on. Sep 27 04:46:44 Or... Sep 27 04:46:46 IS it? Sep 27 04:50:12 Yep. JTAG test points. Sep 27 04:51:11 Digi-Key has non stock, ha, while mouser has almost a 1000 of them. Sep 27 04:51:27 I guess Digi-Key can sell a board? Sep 27 05:00:38 zmatt: hey, thanks for that. the day happened here and i just now got back to take a look. Sep 27 06:57:13 Hi Guys, Sep 27 06:57:41 I was wondering has anyone tried installing a web browser on bbb\g **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Sep 30 01:30:48 2020 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Sep 30 02:59:57 2020
