**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed May 17 03:00:03 2017 May 17 12:36:44 tlwoerner, would I expect the rpi3 to work with the small LCD lanel I use with drgaonboard and minnowboard? May 17 12:37:13 and is there a trick to getting a working serial port? May 17 15:07:57 hi. i have a question about CONVERSIONTYPES in image class. from looking at the source code it seems possible to 'chain' multiple conversions, but it doesn't work for me. i am trying to add a 'fastboot' conversion (for android sparse image), ext4.fastboot FSTYPE works, but ext4.fastboot.gz does not. May 17 15:08:41 the logic around the types/ctype is a bit convoluted.. so i thought i would ask before deep diving.. May 17 15:29:43 hmm. not sure if it was meant to work in fact.. another use case would be FSTYPES += "ext4.gz.md5sum" for example. would it be something worth looking at? May 17 15:38:35 Crofton|work: on the rpi3 to get the serial port working you need to add 'ENABLE_UART = "1"' to your build May 17 15:40:12 Crofton|work: which panel are you using? there's a chance a tweak will be needed in the "config.txt" file May 17 15:40:32 Crofton|work: see meta-raspberrypi/recipes-bsp/bootfiles/rpi-config_git.bb May 17 15:43:07 Crofton|work: to get my waveshare panel working i had to add those 9 lines starting at line 120, but that's really because the waveshare is a strange resolution (1024x600) May 17 15:44:49 lol May 17 15:44:55 why is this so hard :) May 17 15:45:07 the word you're looking for is "flexible" May 17 15:45:25 lol May 17 15:45:40 I like being a grumpy consumer May 17 15:45:51 the rpi is a strange beast with its config.txt file May 17 15:46:31 the dos partition needs a config.txt file with magic strings in it, some binary blob embedded in the BCM looks for and reads that file prior to doing anything else May 17 15:46:41 on startup May 17 15:46:59 serial is explained well in README :) May 17 15:47:23 rtfm? May 17 15:47:28 ;-) May 17 15:48:36 it was early May 17 15:48:48 hopefully rpi3 serial is 3.3 May 17 15:49:13 my understanding is that it is 3V3, but 5V safe May 17 15:49:18 oopps!! May 17 15:49:27 that's my cable May 17 15:49:41 my ftdi cable is 3V3 but 5V safe, not sure what the pi is May 17 15:51:23 google says it's 3V3 May 17 15:52:49 this config.txt file is making my head explode May 17 16:23:26 pregress, garbage on serial port ... May 17 16:26:46 lol operator error May 17 16:37:35 Crofton|work: *usually* the operator doesn't need to play with config.txt, yocto usually does the right thing (if you set the right stuff in local.conf) May 17 16:37:55 eah, was tinking about hacking by hand May 17 16:38:07 "yocto does the right thing" May 17 16:38:18 I yoctoed an image with Angstrom May 17 16:38:32 off to a gnuradio hackfest for a few days May 17 16:38:42 going to try getting gqrx demo going on it May 17 16:38:57 sweet! May 17 16:39:30 once that goes, I'll try 64 bit build May 17 20:19:51 pi is 3.3 May 17 20:20:16 though that info is probably 4 hours too late ;) May 17 20:22:53 hello May 17 20:22:56 I take it that plenty of people come through here to ask technical questions, but i'm new to the whole embedded linux field and I am receiving some errors building my setup May 17 20:22:59 and considering the error is coming from standard GNU software (GDBM) i was wondering if anyone knew how to help me **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu May 18 03:00:02 2017
