**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jun 12 02:59:58 2012 Jun 12 03:00:00 heathkid: here is the place, but you are in a odd spot, the folks in north america are going off line, but the folks in EU/UK haven't become too active yet Jun 12 03:10:39 prpplague: aren't they mostly trolls though? Jun 12 03:11:17 mranostay: yea Jun 12 03:13:26 heathkid: no, i was saying there are three options to power the beaglebone Jun 12 03:13:47 micro-usb, 5vdc psu, or a battery cape Jun 12 03:18:09 no lemons? Jun 12 03:18:24 well, i suppose lol Jun 12 03:18:48 induction power! Jun 12 03:18:51 jakeday: where? Jun 12 03:18:58 the header pins? Jun 12 03:19:12 heh... mis read beaglebone REV A5 as beagle bone with a cortex-a5 ;) Jun 12 03:19:21 * jakeday sighs Jun 12 03:19:31 * heathkid sighs Jun 12 03:19:50 the bone is not exactly power supply friendly Jun 12 03:20:44 needs a power supply cape badly Jun 12 03:20:55 eh? Jun 12 03:21:07 the beagle bone is very power supplyh friendly Jun 12 03:21:15 * jakeday agrees with ds2 Jun 12 03:21:17 how so ds2? Jun 12 03:21:26 i think you're missing something here heathkid Jun 12 03:21:28 how is it not? Jun 12 03:22:03 seems primary power connector is micro-USB that requires 700mA minimum Jun 12 03:22:08 right? Jun 12 03:22:15 no Jun 12 03:22:20 barrel Jun 12 03:22:28 USB charging spec is not implemented Jun 12 03:22:35 the beagle-bone has no barrel connector on it Jun 12 03:22:48 eh? Jun 12 03:22:51 shotgun barrel Jun 12 03:22:55 boom! Jun 12 03:23:17 me think someone need to look at it again Jun 12 03:23:25 or stop removing connectors w/o understanding what they do ;) Jun 12 03:23:32 * jakeday agrees with ds2 again Jun 12 03:23:39 stop making me agree! Jun 12 03:23:41 heathkid: http://www.adafruit.com/images/medium/beaglebone_MED.jpg Jun 12 03:23:44 * jakeday shakes fist Jun 12 03:23:48 heathkid: top right hand corner Jun 12 03:23:49 er i see a barrel connector Jun 12 03:24:40 heathkid: like i said.... i think you're missing something Jun 12 03:25:38 wow that guy down there in the video on this page looks really mean and has beady eyes..... http://www.adafruit.com/products/513 Jun 12 03:26:14 is he going to eat that bbone? looks like it... Jun 12 03:26:25 prpplague: not nice :) Jun 12 03:26:32 hehe Jun 12 03:26:51 someone should tell him that beaglebone is not a granola bar Jun 12 03:27:02 best hand model TI has though :) Jun 12 03:32:17 does anyone else see a barrel connector on the beagle-bone??? Jun 12 03:32:59 * mranostay breaks out the camera Jun 12 03:33:03 didn't think so Jun 12 03:33:44 I would absolutely LOVE to know "how power supply friendly" the beagle-bone is... Jun 12 03:34:21 I was asking if I can power it from the headers? Jun 12 03:35:35 < heathkid> does anyone else see a barrel connector on the beagle-bone??? Jun 12 03:35:40 not the same thing Jun 12 03:36:59 http://imgur.com/ery5D <-- if you can't see this connector you are blind Jun 12 03:38:05 mranostay: beagleboard.org, top banner. Jun 12 03:38:34 well that too Jun 12 03:39:06 but clearly that power jack is only for marketing purposes doesn't exist on the real thing :P Jun 12 03:40:37 Got my PCB from seeedstudio today. Jun 12 03:40:38 :) Jun 12 03:40:54 It's basically just a low pass filter but having it helps keep the clutter down. Jun 12 03:41:10 LP for ? Jun 12 03:41:21 loss pass for what exactly? Jun 12 03:46:26 Heathkid: the USB is 500mA, and the barrel is 2A Jun 12 03:46:34 so we can't talk about the BEAGLE-bone here in #beagle? Jun 12 03:46:39 too different? Jun 12 03:46:46 yes you can Jun 12 03:46:53 talk about all flavors of the beagle board here Jun 12 03:47:00 trelane: beagle-bone Jun 12 03:47:01 heathkid, my beaglebones have barrel jacks Jun 12 03:47:06 both of them Jun 12 03:47:14 bah Jun 12 03:47:16 nevermine Jun 12 03:47:20 nevermind Jun 12 03:47:34 perhaps you're thinking of the Pi? Jun 12 03:47:38 no Jun 12 03:47:42 nevermind Jun 12 03:47:43 nevermine is a depleted goldmine? ;) Jun 12 03:47:54 * heathkid is depleted Jun 12 03:48:04 long night and too much drama with kids Jun 12 03:48:13 heathkid, the R5 boards even have the barrel jack prominantly labeled with 5V Jun 12 03:48:25 ok Jun 12 03:48:49 * mranostay wants whatever heathkid is on Jun 12 03:49:22 mranostay: 3 kids fighting at 11:49 PM on a work night over air conditioning? Jun 12 03:49:24 really? Jun 12 03:49:33 you can have it! Jun 12 04:02:41 jkridner: I have been reading the cause for error message "bus error". it seems the cause is an non-active device (in my case gpmc). but i have set all the config registers correctly. is there any other register i need to look for activating gpmc Jun 12 04:03:31 what does the logic analyzer say? Jun 12 04:04:46 ds2: is that queston for me? Jun 12 04:04:53 could be Jun 12 04:05:31 ds2: sorry, i dont know the answer. Jun 12 04:05:55 well i think it was a suggestion as well :) Jun 12 04:05:58 prehaps you should find the answer Jun 12 04:07:36 actually, when i probe the gpmc_clk pin i do not see any activity. Jun 12 04:07:54 and the chipselect is.... Jun 12 04:08:34 its at 0V. Jun 12 04:08:42 uh.... Jun 12 04:08:49 now go read the datasheet Jun 12 04:09:15 then tell me if it is a CS or /CS (or !CS if you must) Jun 12 04:09:47 ok. Jun 12 04:33:05 ds2: its CSn. Jun 12 04:33:15 i got your point Jun 12 04:34:16 thank you. Jun 12 04:34:59 :) Jun 12 04:43:04 d2s: i made a mistake. i forgot to configure pinmux Jun 12 04:43:22 :) Jun 12 04:43:49 the CS is at logic '1' Jun 12 04:44:09 does it toggle with access? Jun 12 04:44:41 no Jun 12 04:45:10 i receive a error message "bus error" Jun 12 04:45:41 pray tell, what is the purpose of CS? Jun 12 04:48:34 ds2: to select chip that is associated with the addredd we are trying to access Jun 12 04:48:54 address. Jun 12 04:50:22 isnt it? Jun 12 04:50:54 okay... what are you doing that results in a SIGBUS? Jun 12 04:52:29 i am trying to read memory location 0x0000_0000 by mapping it to userspace. using the command "devmem2 0 w" Jun 12 04:52:58 what have you mapped at 0x0000 0000? Jun 12 04:54:36 yes i have written a small code here is the link: http://pastebin.com/hGAFQ91R Jun 12 04:55:44 this code uses the mmap to map the memory to userspace Jun 12 04:55:50 explain it. show you understand Jun 12 04:56:33 what makes you think the memory you are mapping to userspace is anything of interest? Jun 12 04:56:46 #define GPMC_START 0x50000000 #define GPMC_MEM_START 0x00000000 are the base address Jun 12 04:57:08 for config registers and memory address for gpmc Jun 12 04:58:08 okay, then explain why CS isn't changing? :) Jun 12 04:58:23 i have used gpmc to map config registers to it to userspace and gpmc_mem to map the gpmc address Jun 12 04:59:10 when i try to access the gmpc_mem location . it gives me a error message 'bus error' Jun 12 04:59:57 i have researched this error. it is caused because the device(gmpc) is not active active Jun 12 05:00:38 but i have done the configuration of registers correctly. Jun 12 05:00:55 how is device active defined? Jun 12 05:02:21 when you see gpmc_clk activated. Jun 12 05:02:27 this is fun :) Jun 12 05:02:41 mranostay: :) Jun 12 05:02:53 are you sure that is your final answer? Jun 12 05:03:06 why? Jun 12 05:04:20 am i wrong? Jun 12 05:04:39 have you read the TRM? Jun 12 05:05:41 ds2: stop asking loaded questions :) Jun 12 05:06:01 they are not loaded! Jun 12 05:06:18 no. Jun 12 05:07:31 ds2: thank you. i appreciate your help. Jun 12 05:08:48 ds2: isn't the relief shift supposed to be here by now? :) Jun 12 05:08:56 mranostay: thank you Jun 12 05:09:26 * mranostay wonders what he did to be helpful Jun 12 05:09:32 i need to watch that :) Jun 12 05:21:06 :) Jun 12 05:29:11 jkridner: just use an avr, e.g. one on a trainer Jun 12 05:29:34 or a msp if you want to go ti Jun 12 05:38:49 hi.. Jun 12 05:39:40 I need help, I used Beagleboard xm, I used QT, How to use GPIO. Can you any one help me. Jun 12 06:21:51 I am trying to install DSP package but gst-inspect | grep dsp doesnt show anything Jun 12 06:56:48 that mean you have not intalled the packages Jun 12 09:27:43 / Jun 12 09:28:15 \ Jun 12 09:28:44 using _av500_ it would look better ;) Jun 12 09:29:21 <_av500_> ok, try again Jun 12 09:29:27 / Jun 12 09:29:31 <_av500_> \ Jun 12 09:29:38 / Jun 12 09:29:42 <_av500_> \ Jun 12 09:29:51 snake building ;) Jun 12 09:30:01 that depends on your font Jun 12 09:30:18 and right aligned nicks Jun 12 09:30:51 hmm, my font should be terminus Jun 12 09:31:28 mine is Arial :) Jun 12 09:31:53 poor boy ;) Jun 12 09:34:42 I use a code for interupt with GPIO, but I don't understand how does it work: http://pastebin.com/Dh5prfbS Jun 12 09:34:58 This just check if the content of a file changed? Jun 12 09:36:51 Hi everyone Jun 12 09:36:58 lpi: man poll Jun 12 09:38:14 HAs someone tried to install windows compact 7 in beagle Jun 12 09:38:16 ??? Jun 12 09:38:44 do you have a download address? Jun 12 09:39:14 I have the full version Jun 12 09:39:25 with me Jun 12 09:39:35 but I was not able to install it Jun 12 09:40:20 jonhny: where can we download it? Jun 12 09:41:07 Yoy can download evaluation copies from MPC or codeplex Jun 12 09:41:40 however, I dont want to use those Jun 12 09:41:49 maybe enable more debugging and recompile it? Jun 12 09:42:56 which files? Jun 12 09:43:13 jonhny: I have no idea Jun 12 09:43:20 nobody here uses windows on the beagle Jun 12 09:44:40 I understand. If I could, I would use another OS also. But it must be WCE Jun 12 09:45:10 jonhny: there are people that offer windows support Jun 12 09:45:18 in exchange for modest amounts of money Jun 12 09:46:15 or ask m$ directly, I think they are searching every single dev whos wants to use their stuff on arm ;) Jun 12 09:46:56 heh Jun 12 09:47:42 jonhny: commercial or university? Jun 12 09:47:51 if commercial, pay Jun 12 09:47:57 ahaha yeah, but it can be so difficult. I am missing something Jun 12 09:48:00 if uni, ask your supervisor for another project Jun 12 09:48:02 U Jun 12 10:07:19 hello Jun 12 10:08:39 is it on purpose that sources/openembedded-core/meta/recipes-extended/cronie/cronie/crontab is missing the calls to the cron.* directories ?

Jun 12 12:22:37 which module is required for dvi-d cape in beagle bone Jun 12 12:22:39 ?? Jun 12 12:31:02 isn't support built into the kernel Jun 12 12:43:08 linaro makes news by upgrading gcc in android ;) Jun 12 12:43:35 which version of gcc does android use by default? Jun 12 12:44:01 et tu brute Jun 12 12:44:02 4.4 iirc Jun 12 12:44:05 the worst one ever Jun 12 12:44:31 so no wonder they have something to show when switched to 4.6 Jun 12 12:44:45 indeed Jun 12 12:45:04 I've spent the morning tracking some performance regressions in 4.7 compared to 4.6 Jun 12 12:45:45 * bradfa loves gcc 4.4 :) Jun 12 12:45:51 not 2.95? Jun 12 12:46:07 2.95 is second best Jun 12 12:46:12 my beagle is still recompiling everything with 4.7 ;) Jun 12 12:46:14 I keep a framed copy of 2.95 on the wall Jun 12 12:46:57 I remember the pain the abi-switch in 3.x has caused :/ Jun 12 12:47:05 joelagnel: yes…unlike dss, panel support isn't modular Jun 12 12:47:48 2.95 actually sucks bigtime compared to 4.5 and later Jun 12 12:48:05 and of course it doesn't support modern architectures _at all_ Jun 12 12:49:53 mru: you always see thing so negative Jun 12 12:50:20 android could be a good testcase for clang as it is a limited environment Jun 12 12:51:26 and drop Java, another 6x speed improvement Jun 12 12:51:35 aholler: yeah, a new compiler is going to make that bloated mess faster Jun 12 12:51:52 ynezz: 6x only? you must have a fast java :) Jun 12 12:52:05 av500: which mess? Jun 12 12:52:13 @joelagnel yups the support is built in.. i need which code deals with this portion Jun 12 12:52:29 aholler: dunno, iOS maybe? Jun 12 12:53:00 Java is fast like a freight train is fast. It can carry a lot of weight but it takes forever to get up to speed and even then it has a pretty low maximum. Jun 12 12:53:34 java is fast, error-free and runs everywhere… Jun 12 12:53:39 but freight trains don't stop to collect garbage every few seconds Jun 12 12:53:48 * panto chokes :) Jun 12 12:54:02 mru: +1 Jun 12 12:54:28 how to install Qt application in beaglebone.solution pls Jun 12 12:54:45 same as any other application Jun 12 12:55:07 my kernel version is Linux beaglebone 3.2.5+ Jun 12 12:55:20 good Jun 12 12:55:58 processor is :ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7l) Jun 12 12:56:29 good Jun 12 12:56:39 solution pls...

Jun 12 16:46:18 what is real life again? Jun 12 16:47:00 the stuff that doesn't go away when you pull the power plug Jun 12 16:48:14 it does when i take my contacts out. isn't that the same thing?

Jun 12 17:22:05 * mranostay pokes djlewis in the eye with a sharp stick Jun 12 17:22:24 probably the same way 'cluebat' entered the lexicon Jun 12 17:38:12 hi Jun 12 17:40:08 in beagleboard angstrom i tried opkg install task-sdk-target, one package libgmp10 fails to download Jun 12 17:58:18 Hi all Jun 12 17:58:34 Anyone here happen to know workarounds for the issues with SD cards? Jun 12 17:58:43 I'm so sick of asking questions about this, I just want to hurt someone, I swear. Jun 12 17:58:49 So frustrating Jun 12 18:05:23 what issues? Jun 12 18:08:32 formatting problems Jun 12 18:08:36 mkcard.sh doesn't work Jun 12 18:08:53 vague Jun 12 18:08:56 1 partition is fine, second partition is hosed. Jun 12 18:09:08 when running mkfs.ext2, I get a bunch of end_request: I/O error Jun 12 18:09:24 that shows up in dmesg Jun 12 18:09:29 then of course, the filesystem isn't moutable Jun 12 18:09:49 EVERYTHING I have read says to do it one special way, but that special way is simply not working Jun 12 18:10:12 I do notice that my start cylinder for the first partition is 2048 rather than 1, which is curious Jun 12 18:10:27 I was wondering if that was introducing some offset that was screwing up the second partition. Jun 12 18:11:43 omg, not sector 63 madness again... Jun 12 18:12:00 jakeday: you around? Jun 12 18:12:01 yup Jun 12 18:12:14 and sd cards are not cylindrical Jun 12 18:12:40 i've added mmcroot to my uEnv.txt, but it's seemingly ignored? Jun 12 18:12:44 trying to use root=/dev/sda3 Jun 12 18:13:12 I'm gonna go buy an external SD card reader Jun 12 18:13:29 it's POSSIBLE that the internal reader on my laptop is suspect, so I'm going to give that a shot Jun 12 18:13:47 Then I'll try it on a totally different machine with totally different hardware and see what happens Jun 12 18:24:37 Sh0rtWave, pastebin of problem? source of mkcard.sh you're using? Jun 12 18:55:01 bradfa: I just got back from buying a USB card reader Jun 12 18:55:06 bradfa: I'll let you know in just a few Jun 12 18:55:27 Sh0rtWave, stupid question, but you know your SD cards aren't b0rked, right? Jun 12 18:55:36 sometimes they die Jun 12 18:56:23 they're not dead, they're just resting Jun 12 18:56:46 "he says he's not dead" Jun 12 18:58:21 he will be soon Jun 12 19:01:32 hi Jun 12 19:02:46 hi snowrichard Jun 12 19:03:22 bradfa: Brand new cards Jun 12 19:03:25 bradfa: pristine Jun 12 19:03:50 "brand new" doesn't imply "not dead" Jun 12 19:06:29 Certainly, but TWO identical Sandisk cards? Jun 12 19:06:53 if they're really identical, then they'd both be dead? :) Jun 12 19:06:57 got a pastebin of the issue? Jun 12 19:07:22 can you manually partition it with fdisk and have things work? Jun 12 19:08:34 it's not really that complex of a partition map if done the easy 2 partition way (ie: no fancy heads / cylinders / etc) Jun 12 19:13:06 Sh0rtWave, status? Jun 12 19:13:52 I can manually partition it, but no matter what I do, I get the read errors Jun 12 19:14:01 or rather, I/O errors Jun 12 19:14:12 can you pastebin the console output for what you're trying to do? Jun 12 19:15:03 I'm basically trying to use the script from here: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded/tree/contrib/angstrom/omap3-mkcard.sh Jun 12 19:15:07 problem is Jun 12 19:15:23 When I get to mkfs.ext2 on the second partition of the disk, it inevitably fails Jun 12 19:15:26 pastebin is worth 1000 words Jun 12 19:15:42 Sure is Jun 12 19:15:50 except the build machine isn't this one I'm in IRC on Jun 12 19:15:51 hold on Jun 12 19:16:05 This effort is spread across four machines Jun 12 19:17:03 This new card reader is stressing me since Ubuntu on the main development machine isn't interpreting the card reader the same as it does on my laptop, I'm getting SCSI emulation of the device with the sg devices (which of course does nothing helpful) Jun 12 19:17:38 Hi! Can anybody help me out / answer some questions about the ubuntu kernel (3.2.17/psp-12) in terms of IO with pwm and reading analog pins? Jun 12 19:18:29 don't ask to ask Jun 12 19:19:52 Well, do you know anything about it? Is it supported yet? I've tried a few different things I've found on forums and blogs with no positive results Jun 12 19:21:35 http://skitch.com/sh0rtwave/eyja6/screenshot-from-2012-06-12-15-18-58 Jun 12 19:21:41 bradfa: there's an actual screenshot Jun 12 19:21:56 so you can see on the one side, the mkcard.sh command Jun 12 19:22:06 I'm getting that script put somewhere Jun 12 19:22:17 tho it's an official beagleboard validation script Jun 12 19:22:23 came from git and all Jun 12 19:22:44 Ah, wait Jun 12 19:22:45 one second Jun 12 19:23:18 * bradfa can't understand the draw of the semi-transparent terminal, just hurts his eyes Jun 12 19:23:45 On laptops it's helpful because I keep docs behind the terminal :D Jun 12 19:23:48 I've done that for forever Jun 12 19:23:51 i hate flipping screens Jun 12 19:25:36 I don't see output from mkcard.sh script, I see some mkfs.ext2 and some kernel logging output. Jun 12 19:25:40 right, so Jun 12 19:25:42 http://pastie.org/private/zytcnseg8tnqu3cvn4dsgg Jun 12 19:25:48 I just realized that Jun 12 19:26:02 there's the output from the script Jun 12 19:26:52 the script in question is this one: http://gitorious.org/beagleboard-validation/scripts/blobs/master/mkcard.sh Jun 12 19:27:19 which actually looks to have a bug on line 78 Jun 12 19:27:55 I've done this manually also Jun 12 19:28:35 The starting sector is, for some reason, 2048 Jun 12 19:29:44 http://pastie.org/private/ifaqtxhuwnhtjas81ibfcq Jun 12 19:29:52 That's a manual fdisk operation Jun 12 19:31:10 in the fdisk paste, what's wrong? looks like everything went correctly? Jun 12 19:31:17 refresh that paste, and look at the bottom Jun 12 19:32:38 again refresh and see the bottom step Jun 12 19:34:56 run this on your card: https://gist.github.com/1477240 Jun 12 19:35:12 make sure it is completely unmounted first Jun 12 19:38:45 aight Jun 12 19:39:03 nothing but errors Jun 12 19:39:16 I/O errors Jun 12 19:39:41 should look like this: http://pastebin.com/GW9da0Z9 Jun 12 19:40:08 that's run on an 8GB SanDisk card Jun 12 19:40:31 I'm on Debian 6 Jun 12 19:41:16 if that doesn't work for you, you have one of these problems: bad sd card, bad reader, broken fdisk and friends, or possibly a broken hardware in your laptop Jun 12 19:41:28 Ok Jun 12 19:42:04 can you pastebin the output from you running my script? Jun 12 19:43:26 Trying with sfdisk, I get "Warning: the partition table looks like it was made for C/H/S=*/128/32 (instead of 966/255/63) Jun 12 19:43:49 that's cause my script does make it for */128/32 Jun 12 19:43:55 that's expected Jun 12 19:43:59 Ok Jun 12 19:44:04 iirc you need some strange CHS setting for bb Jun 12 19:44:06 so you can align to 2MiB flash chips Jun 12 19:44:12 jacekowski, no, not really Jun 12 19:44:27 so it's just alignment thing? Jun 12 19:44:30 one second while I get the pastebin out Jun 12 19:44:31 in my case, yes Jun 12 19:44:41 I like aligning to underlying flash Jun 12 19:45:07 my 8GB cards seem to have 2 or 4 MiB erase blocks, my 4GB cards have either 1.5MiB or 6MiB erase blocks Jun 12 19:45:24 http://pastebin.com/MMVvJBEz Jun 12 19:45:31 there's the script output Jun 12 19:46:05 Sh0rtWave, get new SD cards Jun 12 19:47:22 Sh0rtWave, can you pastebin the output of: sudo head /sys/block/mmcblk0/device/* 2>/dev/null | grep -v ^$ Jun 12 19:47:50 If the /sys/block/mmcblk0/device/oemid isn't 0x5344 or another ascii code that SanDisk uses, you might have non-legit cards Jun 12 19:48:51 oemid is correct Jun 12 19:49:06 ==> /sys/block/mmcblk0/device/oemid <== Jun 12 19:49:06 0x5344 Jun 12 19:49:11 k Jun 12 19:49:23 THis one card I've tinkered with for a while Jun 12 19:49:31 I can try the one I was keeping for spare... Jun 12 19:49:34 I dunno what to tell you Jun 12 19:49:45 reboot? Jun 12 19:50:09 I'll try the second one Jun 12 19:51:41 ShortWave, regardless of result, let me know. I'm headed home soon but I'll check my IRC logs when I'm back tomorrow Jun 12 19:51:46 Same situation Jun 12 19:51:51 k Jun 12 19:52:04 I have a second laptop I can try Jun 12 19:52:11 well 2 more laptops Jun 12 20:04:10 jkridner: i have enabled th gpmc clock from CM_PER_GPMC_CLKCTRL Register , set all gpmc configuration registers to desired value and the pinmux. but still not able to detect clock on pin gpmc_clk. Jun 12 20:05:27 when i try to do a read using "devmem2 0x0 w " it returns a error message "Bus Error" Jun 12 20:11:10 I love the beaglebone :P Jun 12 20:40:46 if all I'm seeing on boot is "CCCCC" in the serial console, what does that mean? Jun 12 20:41:17 ah, waiting for MLO over serial Jun 12 20:43:15 Hexxeh: your sd-card is brokenm not formatted in a way 0map needs or non-existent Jun 12 20:43:31 is there some spec i can read? i have a fat32 partition in the first position Jun 12 20:43:37 i've tried fat16 too, same problem Jun 12 20:44:21 I keep wondering if there's some special recipe for SD cards Jun 12 20:44:54 yes, sandisk Jun 12 20:45:07 I've got 2 new sandisk cards Jun 12 20:45:16 they both break in the same special way Jun 12 20:45:24 you're holding them wrong Jun 12 20:45:30 Must be Jun 12 20:45:47 I get nothing but failure trying to format them for this and it's *VERY* damned frustrating Jun 12 20:45:51 I've spent over a week on this now Jun 12 20:46:12 There seems to be zero information about what the special "magic" is to make it work. Jun 12 20:46:44 Hexxeh: try changing the size of the fat, the number of blocks has to be even Jun 12 20:48:38 Hrm Jun 12 20:48:40 does it? Jun 12 20:48:44 Is an even block boundary required? Jun 12 20:48:46 aholler: it's exactly 16MB Jun 12 20:51:14 https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/ro5k5r4Cuq4 Jun 12 20:51:40 don't know if the bone has the same stupid rom-code. But I would assume it Jun 12 20:51:41 is an 8GB card to large? Jun 12 20:51:59 OH wait Jun 12 20:52:05 I got a LOT of I/O errors Jun 12 20:52:07 but Jun 12 20:52:08 BUT Jun 12 20:52:12 there is no special magic Jun 12 20:52:14 I got two mounted partitions Jun 12 20:53:12 if you're getting i/o errors, you have a hardware problem Jun 12 21:00:39 still getting CCCCC, despite my partition table looking fine Jun 12 21:01:08 is it GPT aware at all? Jun 12 21:01:15 i have a protective MBR and a GPT on the disk Jun 12 21:01:38 MBR looks as if there's just the one partition, but in reality it's the twelfth GPT partition Jun 12 21:01:47 my linux box can read that just fine, just the bone won't boot from it Jun 12 21:04:02 does the first sector contain a valid partition table? Jun 12 21:04:17 yes Jun 12 21:04:33 and you're putting the mlo in a partition it lists? Jun 12 21:04:38 yep Jun 12 21:05:08 "/dev/sdd1 1126400 1159168 16384+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)" Jun 12 21:05:18 you need to mark it 'active' Jun 12 21:05:34 'a' command in fdisk Jun 12 21:06:17 still got CCCCC Jun 12 21:06:28 "/dev/sdd1 * 1126400 1159168 16384+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)" Jun 12 21:07:53 partition contains "MLO u-boot.img uEnv.txt uImage" Jun 12 21:08:16 with a FAT filesystem? Jun 12 21:08:20 yeah Jun 12 21:08:23 12/16/32 doesn't matter Jun 12 21:09:12 did you try a normal partition table? Jun 12 21:09:24 without the GPT bit afterwards you mean? Jun 12 21:09:27 yes Jun 12 21:09:43 the SD card that came with it had that setup, which worked Jun 12 21:09:57 but i need the GPT bit for my application Jun 12 21:10:05 try it anyway Jun 12 21:10:17 what, just zero sector 1? Jun 12 21:12:14 no Jun 12 21:12:31 try to create a plain old partition table that it will accept Jun 12 21:12:40 once you've done that, you can try adding more fancy stuff Jun 12 21:14:24 sure, that works Jun 12 21:14:25 just tried it Jun 12 21:24:37 i heard a rumor that the pvr doesn't work on the beaglebone? Jun 12 21:24:53 or maybe it just doesn't work on the ubuntu port/kernel for the bone? Jun 12 21:25:08 pvr? Jun 12 21:25:13 sgx? Jun 12 21:25:20 just tried it Jun 12 21:25:21 powerVR? Jun 12 21:25:27 oops, wrong window to up-enter from Jun 12 21:25:51 Hexxeh, awe :( got my hopes up Jun 12 21:26:31 oh hey boom, got it Jun 12 21:26:45 gdisk instead of fdisk to twiddle with the hybrid mbr and we're a go Jun 12 21:26:46 awesome Jun 12 21:27:11 aholler, the closed PowerVR graphics drivers Jun 12 22:14:23 hi Jun 12 22:14:48 i'm working in the beagleboard xM Jun 12 22:16:59 set the kernel to function with the camera li5m03 of Aptina, the problem is that the d14 will not turn on the tablet, but when I try with other distributions that I have and I function perfectly recognizes both the ethernet and the usb Jun 12 22:34:01 which kernel sources should i be using for the beaglebone? Jun 12 22:44:08 its the beagleboard XM and kernel is 2.6.32 and the beagleboard's revision is C Jun 12 22:47:25 Hexxeh, there is a kernel-am33xx branch on github iirc Jun 12 22:47:35 check the bboard google group Jun 12 22:48:44 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/beagleboard/gjLyY3cVCc4 Jun 12 22:48:54 https://github.com/hvaibhav/am335x-linux Jun 12 22:54:21 trip0, that kernel is not feature complete Jun 12 22:55:08 oh? Jun 12 22:55:27 what is the latest kernel Jun 12 22:55:47 i'm getting the kernel booting, but not seeing any partitions at all Jun 12 22:56:37 http://pastebin.com/ufRwE5Yw Jun 12 22:57:10 https://github.com/koenkooi/linux Jun 12 22:57:41 Check the latest branch...r12i Jun 12 22:57:49 what source tree is the kernel that ships on the sd card built from? Jun 12 22:59:00 the tree above..dunno what branch for shipping sdcard..but it mirrors current angstrom bone builds Jun 12 23:00:08 if you want to do git-based kernel devel ... then imho that's the way to go Jun 12 23:00:12 and defconfig includes everything needed to boot from USB? Jun 12 23:00:22 the tree i have atm boots, just can't see any partitions on the mmc Jun 12 23:01:04 the top level dir of that tree's branches has a full featured defconfig Jun 12 23:02:10 Hexxeh, I've never used usb on bone so can't say for sure :) Jun 12 23:02:31 what am i on about Jun 12 23:02:32 MMC, even Jun 12 23:03:44 what tree? Jun 12 23:04:10 what tree am i seeing fail on you mean? Jun 12 23:04:17 yes Jun 12 23:04:30 git://arago-project.org/git/projects/linux-am33x.git Jun 12 23:05:34 surprises me. but then I dont use that tree. build the one I posted and be happy Jun 12 23:05:45 cloning now Jun 12 23:08:37 yeh, koen's kernel is prolly the way to go Jun 12 23:09:09 hmm Jun 12 23:09:14 didn't know you could boot from usb Jun 12 23:11:03 Hexxeh: zgrep EFI /proc/config.gz Jun 12 23:11:29 i don't have a running environment on there so i can't do taht Jun 12 23:11:30 *that Jun 12 23:13:31 hi Jun 12 23:15:34 well i finally got angstrom task-sdk-target installed, after retrying gcc and friends about half a dozen times Jun 12 23:20:40 hmm Jun 12 23:20:44 hi jkridner, Jun 12 23:20:49 keon's kernel seems oldish Jun 12 23:21:57 jkridner:I have enabled the gpmc clock from CM_PER_GPMC_CLKCTRL Register , set all gpmc configuration registers to desired value and the pinmux. but still not able to detect clock on pin gpmc_clk. But when i try to do a read using "devmem2 0x0 w " it returns a error message "Bus Error". Jun 12 23:22:02 oh the r12i isn't old Jun 12 23:23:38 mdp: does the gpmc_clk runs free or its activated only if we do a read or wirte? Jun 12 23:25:17 write? Jun 12 23:32:09 i'm working in the beagleboard xM Jun 12 23:32:18 set the kernel to function with the camera li5m03 of Aptina, the problem is that the d14 will not turn on the tablet, but when I try with other distributions that I have and I function perfectly recognizes both the ethernet and the usb Jun 12 23:49:45 Dhiraj, I haven't done sync stuff before but if the trm is unclear just check with scope/la Jun 12 23:50:37 trip0, by definition, all beaglebone kernels are old as they are 3.2 Jun 12 23:57:42 mdp: i checked it its non responsive. i am not able to figure out if the gpmc is up and running. Jun 12 23:59:15 how to check is gpmc is active? i mean i can access the configuration registers but as soon as i try to read or write it gives a error message "Bus Error" Jun 13 00:02:52 hi jkridner__ Jun 13 00:03:04 hi Dhiraj Jun 13 00:03:34 how to check is gpmc is active? i mean i can access the configuration registers but as soon as i try to read or write it gives a error message "Bus Error" Jun 13 00:03:43 any scope on the control lines? Jun 13 00:04:05 i tryed that non of the lines toggle Jun 13 00:04:36 is the gpmc_clk supposed to run free Jun 13 00:05:04 or it is activarted when we read or write? Jun 13 00:05:16 activated Jun 13 00:07:22 jkridner:I have enabled the gpmc clock from CM_PER_GPMC_CLKCTRL Register , set all gpmc configuration registers to desired value and the pinmux. but still get a error message " bus error" Jun 13 00:11:49 Dhiraj: you've looked at if the clock is free running, but don't see the clock? Jun 13 00:12:08 is there an exception register? Jun 13 00:15:08 yes, actually bit '0' of gpmc_sysconfig sets it to free sun Jun 13 00:15:13 run Jun 13 00:15:41 for clock. Jun 13 00:34:31 Dhiraj: but it isn't running, correct? so it is certainly not configured correctly? Jun 13 00:34:47 care to do a register dump and have a few people review it? Jun 13 00:35:54 sure. Jun 13 00:41:11 Dhiraj, I looked and the trm is clear that GPMC_CLK is inactive between accesses Jun 13 00:42:22 for your sync mode accesses where it's applicable Jun 13 00:42:54 thank you mdp it is a great help. Jun 13 00:43:53 Dhiraj, also the sysconfig clock refwrences are to the fclk...that is only indirectly related to GPMC_CLK Jun 13 00:45:45 so that means gpmc may be active, but something is stoping gpmc to respond to a read or write request Jun 13 00:46:15 Dhiraj, if you try to access a an address like 0x1000000 that is in the 512MB gpmc region but not decoded, I think you'll find that the errstatus register will log an error because it's not decoded. that will show you that the gpmc is alive Jun 13 00:47:52 Dhiraj, that's correct. I'm able to use the gpmc with async accesses on a stock beaglebone kernel so it is functional Jun 13 00:48:41 you are write. the gpmc is working fine. it returns tha error address. as 0x1000_0000 Jun 13 00:49:01 you are correct. the gpmc is working fine. it returns tha error address. as 0x1000_0000 Jun 13 00:49:33 did you use a "devmem2" util Jun 13 00:49:36 ? Jun 13 00:50:14 just for fun, change your test app to write f41 to config7 and mmap 0x1000000 as your offset Jun 13 00:50:56 how did you confirm the async access? Jun 13 00:50:58 ok Jun 13 00:53:07 mdp:it gives a bus error. Jun 13 00:55:26 mdp:do you get a bus error when you try to access gpmc? Jun 13 01:00:09 jkridner: it seem the gpmc is active. then what can be the reason to get a bus error? Jun 13 01:04:36 Dhiraj, works for me on async via devmem and kernel. essentially doing the same thing anyway Jun 13 01:05:08 I'm not near my system to paste any details though Jun 13 01:05:57 sounds like you have a sync specific config issue...maybe wait related? Jun 13 01:08:10 How would one enable i2c-2 on the beagle bones latest kernel Jun 13 01:08:48 but i done a reboot. so all my configuration must reset to default Jun 13 01:09:23 mdp:which version of kernel are you working with? Jun 13 01:17:32 sigh Jun 13 01:18:47 * jakeday sighs Jun 13 01:18:58 :/ Jun 13 01:27:54 * mranostay scrolls up Jun 13 01:28:05 * mranostay fumbles for a drink Jun 13 01:29:52 hi Jun 13 01:33:13 * mranostay hides Jun 13 01:36:52 * jakeday doesn't come to #beagle without a drink Jun 13 01:43:46 hi mdp. Jun 13 01:45:29 i get a bus error when i try to read or write to gpmc. i have verified that gpmc is active. Jun 13 01:46:08 what can be the problem? Jun 13 01:47:01 i am using 'devmem2 0x0 w' to read form gomc address 0 Jun 13 01:47:06 from Jun 13 01:47:11 gpmc Jun 13 02:39:40 howdy... i was wondering, i downloaded an image for sd card for ubuntu-netbook-10.10-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap.img.gz and managed to extract it onto an sd card... Jun 13 02:39:47 however it would not boo...

Jun 13 02:40:36 so not sure what is up... Jun 13 02:40:54 anyone have any luck with this or know of a better image ready to extract? :) Jun 13 02:42:12 the boot partition has a boot.scr file in it... Jun 13 02:42:19 which I thought was no longer used... Jun 13 02:42:49 howdy... i was wondering, i downloaded an image for sd card for ubuntu-netbook-10.10-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap.img.gz and managed to extract it onto an sd card... Jun 13 02:43:04 however it would not boot Jun 13 02:43:13 i used these instructions... Jun 13 02:43:20 https://hyetik.wordpress.com/2011/01/20/installing-ubuntu-remix-netbook-remix-on-beagleboard-xm/ Jun 13 02:43:37 so not sure what is up... Jun 13 02:43:47 the boot partition has a boot.scr file in it... Jun 13 02:43:54 which I thought was no longer used... Jun 13 02:44:16 (repeating the for the benifit of prpplague, who has been helpful in the past...) Jun 13 02:45:34 just like ms dos in the old days, there were a number of files that had to be present in order for this to boot.... those would be the MLO, u-boot.bin and uImage... Jun 13 02:45:44 wich are all there...

Jun 13 02:49:43 beaglebone has a GPU? Jun 13 02:49:47 waltermixxx: your grammophon is broken, it repeats everything Jun 13 02:49:51 Yup, PowerVR Jun 13 02:51:04 only twice... Jun 13 02:51:31 waltermixxx: besides that, if you download an image which is several years old, do you expect sw from tomorrow in the image? Jun 13 02:52:27 what I was hoping for was a bit of assistance Jun 13 02:52:29 :) Jun 13 02:52:48 try #ubuntu-arm Jun 13 02:53:20 ubuntu... bleh Jun 13 02:53:37 to be honest it does not have to be ubuntu Jun 13 02:53:51 i just want a stable platform I can begin messing around with GPIO's Jun 13 02:54:17 I have a couple of Angstrom SD cards working nicely Jun 13 02:54:29 thanks to helpful folks in here, and a lot of reading... Jun 13 02:54:59 i was hoping to try ubuntu on the beagleboard xM before I settled down with one or the other. Jun 13 02:55:06 i loaded slackware and never looked back Jun 13 02:55:17 on a beagle board? Jun 13 02:55:23 yeah Jun 13 02:55:30 well, beaglebone Jun 13 02:56:19 I don't want to use this as a media server, or play quake, or anything like that... just need a basic web server I can put pages on to manipulare gpio's :) Jun 13 02:56:33 slack it up Jun 13 02:56:47 http://www.armedslack.org/ Jun 13 02:56:51 yep Jun 13 02:57:01 i will have a look folks... :) Jun 13 02:57:17 are there images there that can be dropped on an sd card? Jun 13 02:57:30 i can give you a guide if needed. i'm still working on adding in official support for beagle boards to armedslack Jun 13 02:57:44 Slackware was one of the first distros I used, I remember the floppy images well. Jun 13 02:57:59 Jakeday that is oftly kind Jun 13 02:58:38 Adding it to my list of distros to check out, cheers jakeday. That'll be of interest to the Pi people too. Jun 13 02:59:06 yeah, sure. like i said, it will be officially supported soon. Jun 13 02:59:32 here's a rough guide to throwing the minirootfs on there, though: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11H6tDZ9dtQa_Pijjh5tLOLVa1JGJ3-IpPTMUfNcxLBY/edit **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Jun 13 02:59:58 2012
