Mar 25 05:25:01 <vedant16[m]> <jkridner "you need the compiler to create "> ohhk, I understand. this will be a too big of a project ig.
Mar 25 05:25:18 <vedant16[m]> not feasible since we don't even have a llvm-pru backend
Mar 25 11:01:41 <jduchniewicz> how can I message somebody privately? I tried messaging ds2  yesterday but got replies from Freenode IRC Bridge saying I am not registered (I am using element client for IRC connection)
Mar 25 14:02:40 <rassu_12[m]> can someone give me the active slack discussion link of 'librobotcontrol support for BeagleBone AI and Robotics Cape' project
Mar 25 14:28:41 <jduchniewicz> slack?
Mar 25 14:29:09 <jduchniewicz> is there a slack relevant to this gsoc topic?
Mar 25 14:33:26 <vedant16[m]> <jduchniewicz "is there a slack relevant to thi"> nope there isn't any
Mar 25 14:33:42 <vedant16[m]> <rassu_12[m] "can someone give me the active s"> this is the channel for gsoc discussion, there's no slack for gsoc afaik
Mar 25 14:34:06 <rassu_12[m]> okay
Mar 25 15:00:06 <rassu_12[m]> I am interested in the project librobotcontrol support for BeagleBone AI and Robotics Cape. I have the  skills mentioned for this project, tell me from where to start for this project
Mar 25 15:38:04 <satacker[m]> @lor
Mar 25 15:39:14 <satacker[m]>  * lorforlinux:  i had bricked my pocketbeagle . Could you suggest something for device tree proposal
Mar 25 15:39:31 <satacker[m]>  * lorforlinux:  i had bricked my pocketbeagle (Hence cannot compile device tree) . Could you suggest something for device tree proposal
Mar 25 15:39:58 <satacker[m]>  * lorforlinux:  i had bricked my pocketbeagle (Hence cannot compile device tree) . Could you suggest something for device tree proposal (other than actually trying it ) please
Mar 25 15:41:21 <satacker[m]> Sorry for the trouble
Mar 25 15:52:07 <Abhishek[m]_> satacker: You can always recover a non booting PocketBeagle as long as you have not over voltage supply it
Mar 25 15:52:34 <Abhishek[m]_> Or there’s no ESD/physical hardware damage
Mar 25 15:53:42 <Abhishek[m]_> For device tree compile just install or compile dtc from kernel sources or rcn-ee scripts
Mar 25 15:54:01 <Abhishek[m]_> You don’t need a PocketBeagle for most of the work
Mar 25 15:54:29 <Abhishek[m]_> Like cross compiling a kernel
Mar 25 15:54:35 <satacker[m]> <Abhishek[m]_ "Or there’s no ESD/physical hardw"> There's no physical damage, and surely no oversupply as I connect other uCs too. Sometimes only the power LED is on. Other times it boots after sometime and Kernel runs into panic.
Mar 25 15:54:47 <Abhishek[m]_> Maybe a bad SD card
Mar 25 15:55:17 <Abhishek[m]_> Are your other uCs 5V or 3.3V logic level?
Mar 25 15:55:45 <Abhishek[m]_> Try connecting USB to serial console on UART0
Mar 25 15:55:55 <satacker[m]> <Abhishek[m]_ "Maybe a bad SD card"> I bought two new ones after first time
Mar 25 15:56:02 <Abhishek[m]_> And observe boot loader output
Mar 25 15:56:22 <Abhishek[m]_> So you can monitor the boot process
Mar 25 15:57:08 <satacker[m]> <Abhishek[m]_ "And observe boot loader output"> Yes, as soon as I get a usb-ttl converter
Mar 25 15:57:25 <Abhishek[m]_> Okay
Mar 25 15:57:39 <Abhishek[m]_> If you have other SBC you can also use it
Mar 25 15:57:56 <satacker[m]> <Abhishek[m]_ "Like cross compiling a kernel"> Oh right, but i thought i would have to do make install to test too right?
Mar 25 15:58:16 <Abhishek[m]_> Yeah, you do need install to test it
Mar 25 15:58:28 <Abhishek[m]_> But you can always build
Mar 25 15:58:35 <Abhishek[m]_> On your PC
Mar 25 15:59:24 * Abhishek[m]_ wonders if we can get a BeagleBone farm where it’s easy to swap out kernel and bootloader to monitor stuff
Mar 25 16:00:39 <Abhishek[m]_> Someone want to take up a potential GSoC project on this?
Mar 25 16:00:56 <Abhishek[m]_> BeagleBone-CI-on-the-cloud
Mar 25 16:02:53 <Abhishek[m]_> Cloud VM hooked up to a BeagleBone. Serial console from VM to BeagleBone. TFTP for bootloader remote boot and NFS for rootfs
Mar 25 16:03:15 <Abhishek[m]_> No SD card burning and swapping
Mar 25 16:03:58 <Abhishek[m]_> BeagleBone can be remotely power cycled
Mar 25 16:04:12 <Abhishek[m]_> As well
Mar 25 16:04:40 <Abhishek[m]_> Hardware access but you never touch physical hardware at all
Mar 25 16:04:48 <satacker[m]> This is so cool but I don't know from where to start , i'll have to dig a lot about those terms ;-)
Mar 25 16:05:16 <satacker[m]> TFTP and NFS
Mar 25 16:05:16 <Abhishek[m]_> Please go ahead and brainstorm
Mar 25 16:09:20 <Abhishek[m]_> Yes
Mar 25 16:46:31 <jduchniewicz> Should I start working on a proposal anyway if the mentor does not respond to me?
Mar 25 16:58:40 <Abhishek[m]_> jduchniewicz: Which idea have you picked/proposed?
Mar 25 17:00:39 <vedant16[m]> <Abhishek[m]_ "jduchniewicz: Which idea have yo"> His mentor is ds2, and he's having trouble with irc bridge
Mar 25 17:00:42 <vedant16[m]> jduchniewicz:
Mar 25 17:00:59 <vedant16[m]> make an account on freenode and see if you can contact him that way.
Mar 25 17:02:40 <jduchniewicz> ok I will try
Mar 25 17:40:45 <lorforlinux[m]> If anybody needs help with the hello-world task you can refer -> https://github.com/lorforlinux/gsoc-application
Mar 25 17:40:45 <lorforlinux[m]> * I have fixed the default branch to mine so, if you looked at it before and found nothing it will be not the case now.
Mar 25 17:40:45 <lorforlinux[m]> > <@satacker:matrix.org> lorforlinux:  i had bricked my pocketbeagle (Hence cannot compile device tree) . Could you suggest something for device tree proposal (other than actually trying it ) please
Mar 25 17:40:45 <lorforlinux[m]>  * I hope you'll be able to fix the issue now. If not please let me know.

Mar 25 17:51:52 <lorforlinux[m]> Sure thing 👍
Mar 25 17:56:29 <vedant16[m]> satacker: I have extra pocketbeagle, let me know if you need it.
Mar 25 17:58:00 <satacker[m]> <vedant16[m] "satacker: I have extra pocketbea"> That's very kind of you. Thank you. I'll let you know.
