If not I will need to order it Aug 23 10:36:46 keesj_: ping Aug 23 11:15:43 yo Aug 23 11:16:05 i have updated my git Aug 23 11:16:14 with the working version of the app Aug 23 11:16:24 it flashes eMMC/makes uSD cards Aug 23 11:16:35 now i`m writing a guide on how to use it Aug 23 11:17:24 have any time to test? Aug 23 11:17:39 I have 30 minutes now! Aug 23 11:18:46 i have one small bug, but will be fixed in 2h max Aug 23 11:19:03 now i need to have uSD card inserted even if i want to flash eMMC Aug 23 11:19:37 so downloaded the code and now created an APK (BeagleDroid.apk) Aug 23 11:19:54 yep Aug 23 11:20:12 one sec to give you link on what to have on phone Aug 23 11:20:19 the u-boot.bin and everything elese Aug 23 11:24:04 keesj_: http://vdev.tk:8082/BBB.zip the content of the archive needs to be put on the sdcard of the phone in a folder called BBB Aug 23 11:24:23 on /sdcard ? Aug 23 11:24:45 yep Aug 23 11:25:02 i will make them assets to be included in the .apk Aug 23 11:25:10 alright (as soon as I find a cable ..) Aug 23 11:25:29 keesj_: have any link to a fresh eMMC Angstrom image? Aug 23 11:25:32 assest would be better or download Aug 23 11:25:46 the one from beagleboard.org/latest-images is 4gigs size Aug 23 11:26:06 and does not fit on emmc Aug 23 11:26:17 * keesj_ gets motivated to run minix on the emmc Aug 23 11:26:25 can you flash to the sd-card? Aug 23 11:27:27 yep Aug 23 11:27:36 did yesterday a test and worked Aug 23 11:32:18 why do you need android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE ? Aug 23 11:32:36 for checking network state Aug 23 11:32:45 if i have internet connection i believe Aug 23 11:32:54 android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE is also present in your manifest Aug 23 11:33:25 it was on stack overflow how to check internet connection and was that too in the manifest example Aug 23 11:33:28 just copied em Aug 23 11:34:19 what's the rPI Dnld? Aug 23 11:34:36 the function to download the image Aug 23 11:34:54 i have in it option to download rpi image and flash it to sdcard Aug 23 11:35:56 I don't get is what is rpi? Aug 23 11:37:04 half the circumference? Aug 23 11:37:34 jkridner wanted to include functionality in the app the make uSD cards for raspberry pi and minnowboard Aug 23 11:39:07 and the idea is to flash the card using the BBB ? Aug 23 11:39:14 yep Aug 23 11:40:17 for angstrom i have a generic link to get the latest image but for rPI/minnowboard i have only hardcoded links Aug 23 11:41:57 perhaps that the download button can be renamed download? Aug 23 11:42:10 yep :) Aug 23 11:42:38 going to move to get access to a cable Aug 23 11:42:49 ok Aug 23 11:43:53 keesj_: do a git pull 1st, changed the names of the buttons and the method Aug 23 11:56:55 keesj_: do you have modified kernel on your android device ? Aug 23 12:09:03 I have cyanomodgen 10.2 lets see how that goes Aug 23 12:09:23 you need to disable OTG and activate RNDIS HOST DRIVER in the kernel :( Aug 23 12:18:33 can I test it with a BBW or do I need a BBB? Aug 23 12:19:05 it should work, it has the same chip right? Aug 23 12:21:05 not shure we talked about this I think the BBB only does network boot over usb Aug 23 12:22:10 move home to get the cable (where I don't need it because I have proper WIFI) and left all BBB's at work Aug 23 12:22:38 ahh no problem then Aug 23 12:22:46 anyway i`m working now on putting everything to assets Aug 23 12:23:23 for the app it would be good to spend a little time on making it nicer (e.g. set a logo, publish an APK and do a little styling) Aug 23 12:23:52 1st i wanna finish all backend problems Aug 23 12:23:59 also getting getting the resources in the APK or at least not needing to unzip the BBB folder would be nice. Aug 23 12:24:05 all bugs and stuff Aug 23 12:24:10 yep Aug 23 12:24:58 The download used something like the download manager but I can't cancel it Aug 23 12:25:47 the zip contained mac crap :P Aug 23 12:26:00 yeah...i`m using a mac :D Aug 23 12:26:13 should i change download manager? Aug 23 12:27:09 you need to spend a little time going over a few demo Android apps Aug 23 12:27:19 true here Aug 23 12:27:28 it will make the thing way more pleasant and it is not that hard Aug 23 12:27:29 this is my 1st android app i`m doing :) Aug 23 12:27:57 little steps Aug 23 12:31:14 keesj_: i`m going to be offline until 2night. maybe 2morrow we can discuss more Aug 23 12:37:16 have a good day! Aug 24 00:07:24 ka6sox, ping Aug 24 00:07:26 jj2baile, ping Aug 24 00:16:46 Pong Aug 24 00:16:54 good evening Aug 24 00:17:08 how r things with you? Aug 24 00:17:11 Evening Aug 24 00:17:23 fine Aug 24 00:17:34 built kernel, loaded unto Aug 24 00:17:45 an sd card and it booted perfectly fine Aug 24 00:17:49 :) Aug 24 00:18:14 have you installed the PRU C compiler? Aug 24 00:18:21 And sorted out a few troubles with the toolchain and stuff. Digging more into the vring code now Aug 24 00:18:28 Yeah, took me a while to realize it was a GUI installer though haha Aug 24 00:18:45 (I do my development over ssh to a remote server generally) Aug 24 00:18:51 i only installed it on Ubuntu, not the BBB Aug 24 00:19:31 so now I'm going to wire the Launchpad JTAG pins to the BBB, with the idea to use openocd sysfsgpio interface to drive it Aug 24 00:19:41 hope the smoke doesn't come out ... Aug 24 00:19:51 Haha, Yes. Good luck. Aug 24 00:20:14 you have a launchpad? Aug 24 00:20:24 Yes Aug 24 00:20:42 (the stellaris launchpad with the cortex-m4, is the one you speak of right?) Aug 24 00:21:06 good - yes, that one - it's cool that the on-board ICDI can do jtag-out or you can jtag-in also Aug 24 00:21:09 for $12 Aug 24 00:21:15 That is what I had been testing some of the previous code on. Aug 24 00:21:29 yeah, It is a veyr interesting setup, what with using a second m4 for the debug interface Aug 24 00:21:32 very* Aug 24 00:22:47 so my goal is achieve success with openocd scan_chain command, and use the logic analyzer to grab signals Aug 24 00:23:22 if you could have a pru program in C that would do the same, I can grab the signals for that too Aug 24 00:24:10 then we have all the info we need, to start programming this project Aug 24 00:24:45 hm, ok. Aug 24 00:25:07 you have any questions? Aug 24 00:26:12 evening folks Aug 24 00:26:16 hi tom Aug 24 00:26:19 No, Just taking a look at what actions scan_chain performs overall Aug 24 00:26:36 ok, i know zip about jtag signalling Aug 24 00:26:51 evening Mike, Jon Aug 24 00:27:05 hello Aug 24 00:27:07 still sunny, where you are! Aug 24 00:27:13 so far Aug 24 00:27:18 lol Aug 24 00:27:34 i tell you, darkness is coming Aug 24 00:27:48 so I have the opportunity for about $0.85 to make this board also do something interesting... Aug 24 00:28:00 all ears Aug 24 00:28:04 I don't think it complicates what you guys are doing... Aug 24 00:28:12 but I wanted you to be aware of it. Aug 24 00:28:58 if I change the part from a 44pin CPLD to something a bit bigger...and bump the Clock up to 200mhz... Aug 24 00:29:22 it can do an 8-bit Logic Analyzer too. Aug 24 00:29:36 yay! with gdb server built-in? Aug 24 00:30:01 giving you more ideas ... Aug 24 00:30:12 gdb-server will be built in when we are done Aug 24 00:30:22 its part of the process too. Aug 24 00:30:25 very nice tom Aug 24 00:30:42 it shouldn't have any effect on what you are doing. Aug 24 00:30:57 what size of memory buffer? Aug 24 00:31:50 I mean, on-board the BoneTag Aug 24 00:32:11 how big is the Bone? Aug 24 00:32:29 16k is whats on both of the PRUs Aug 24 00:32:30 you mean, PRU shared memory? Aug 24 00:32:34 no Aug 24 00:32:39 the main memory Aug 24 00:32:55 16k is all I can do on the PRUs Aug 24 00:33:13 however if we do 1/2 of that I can do 32K :) Aug 24 00:33:41 hello here! Aug 24 00:33:43 only log state-changes, save memory Aug 24 00:34:23 vvu, hi Aug 24 00:34:49 well, I'm going to get out the soldering iron now Aug 24 00:34:53 how is it going ? Aug 24 00:35:06 the weather is fine Aug 24 00:36:07 wish you were beautiful? Aug 24 00:36:13 Tom, how will the CPLD IP be loaded? Aug 24 00:36:38 I'm writing a PRU app to "BitBang" the GPIO lines to programme it. Aug 24 00:36:54 is there Flash? Aug 24 00:37:00 and it only needs to be loaded *when* we make a change Aug 24 00:37:12 a CPLD has its configuration stored inside Aug 24 00:37:18 nothing external Aug 24 00:37:22 ok Aug 24 00:38:05 we should be able to program it, using openocd and pru pipeline? Aug 24 00:38:29 it won't be fast...will take about 3 mintues to flash the CPLD @ about 50khz Aug 24 00:39:06 but we should only have to do this 3-5X during the development cycle Aug 24 00:39:22 optimist Aug 24 00:39:31 I was just going to have the PRU do it Aug 24 00:39:34 I think you have an extra '-' in your typing ... :) Aug 24 00:39:35 sorry to bug in anybody has a fresh image for the BBB ? from the eMMC? Aug 24 00:40:00 so, a separate pru program ... Aug 24 00:40:43 vvu, Aug 24 00:40:48 vvu, sorry I don't Aug 24 00:41:00 I disabled my eMMC...Permanently Aug 24 00:41:14 not using mine either, just sd card Aug 24 00:41:52 now at the almost end of GSoC i`m feeling that my project is taking shape Aug 24 00:42:18 success, on-schedule (but not according to schedule) Aug 24 00:43:19 I'm going to solder now, talk to you guys later Aug 24 00:43:26 have fun! Aug 24 00:43:29 mluckham, enjoy! Aug 24 01:11:02 Tom, can I use BBB P8-1 (GND) and P8-2 (3.3V) to drive the Launchpad? Aug 24 01:11:10 from the schematic, it looks like a 'no' Aug 24 01:11:20 but I need 3.3v supply for the launchpad Aug 24 01:12:27 sorry, the schematic for VCC_3V3B signal says 'yes' - but the voltage on P8-2 is only 2.78 v Aug 24 01:16:47 i guess Stellaris can't be powered that way - I just used the usb off the bbb Aug 24 01:55:32 mluckham-away, I'm not convinced thats the right thing to do. Aug 24 01:55:45 you *might* be able to power it off of our board **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Aug 24 02:59:58 2013
