Aug 05 05:41:29 <_av500_> ogra_: people stopped coming here for the search tool a while ago
Aug 05 05:41:46 <_av500_> and jkridner managed to finally 0wn the channel
Aug 05 05:42:50 <_av500_> grah, the rain kills the mesh network totally
Aug 05 05:49:14 <james> Hello
Aug 05 05:49:58 <Guest50490> I am trying to install Ubuntu on my BeagleBone using OSX
Aug 05 05:50:12 <Guest50490> I cannot find anywhere to do it. Can anyone point me to something?
Aug 05 05:54:05 <W1N9Zr0> http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu
Aug 05 05:59:41 <Guest50490> That doesn't help me with OSX
Aug 05 05:59:53 <Guest50490> The items only work on Linux
Aug 05 06:01:35 <W1N9Zr0> you could always install linux in a virtual machine
Aug 05 06:04:47 <_av500_> all you need on osx is a way to write the sdcard image
Aug 05 06:05:16 <_av500_> if osx cannot even do that ....
Aug 05 06:05:52 * _av500_ thinks about selling sdcards for osx users
Aug 05 06:07:06 <dm8tbr> osx should have 'dd'
Aug 05 06:07:12 <dm8tbr> it's a unix bastard after all
Aug 05 06:10:27 <_av500_> maybe its sandboxed
Aug 05 06:12:57 <thurbad> it has dd
Aug 05 06:13:42 <thurbad> I've used it for duplicating beagleboard cards
Aug 05 06:14:51 <thurbad> unfortunately macbooks don't share their SD port with VMs... at least mine doesn't
Aug 05 06:15:15 <thurbad> but you can buy a usb reader for $10
Aug 05 06:15:29 <thurbad> or less
Aug 05 06:15:58 <_av500_> way less
Aug 05 06:16:44 <thurbad> depends on how many card types you want to read
Aug 05 06:16:57 <_av500_> all the obsolete ones :)
Aug 05 06:17:02 <_av500_> smartmedia
Aug 05 06:17:04 <thurbad> yup
Aug 05 06:17:43 <_av500_> in fact, nand chips are still using the smartmedia "protocol" ...
Aug 05 06:17:53 <_av500_> more or les
Aug 05 06:18:31 <_av500_> thurbad: btw, what about your "project"?
Aug 05 06:18:41 <_av500_> you never posted a youtube link :)
Aug 05 06:18:53 <thurbad> heh
Aug 05 06:19:25 <_av500_> anmd audio patches for omapfbplay
Aug 05 06:19:28 <_av500_> iirc
Aug 05 06:20:17 <thurbad> thinking about reworking the audio for openAL rather than using SDL
Aug 05 06:20:34 <_av500_> oh
Aug 05 06:20:52 <_av500_> and openAL plugs into what?
Aug 05 06:20:55 <_av500_> alsa?
Aug 05 06:21:06 <thurbad> I believe so
Aug 05 06:21:17 <_av500_> so why add a wrapper?
Aug 05 06:21:31 <_av500_> if you just want sound out, looke at tinyalsa from android
Aug 05 06:21:41 <_av500_> its 100 lines or so
Aug 05 06:21:42 <thurbad> oh?
Aug 05 06:21:49 <thurbad> nice
Aug 05 06:21:55 <_av500_> its one c and one h file
Aug 05 06:22:21 <thurbad> what's the license on it?
Aug 05 06:23:07 <_av500_> apache i gues
Aug 05 06:23:10 <_av500_> s
Aug 05 06:25:01 <thurbad> nice it will mix too?
Aug 05 06:25:14 <_av500_> no idea
Aug 05 06:25:26 <_av500_> android mixes internally
Aug 05 06:25:32 <_av500_> so it does not need that
Aug 05 06:25:46 <_av500_> tinyalsa calls the kernel api directly
Aug 05 06:27:54 <thurbad> i don't suppose it has OGG or MP3 support LOL
Aug 05 06:28:02 <_av500_> ?
Aug 05 06:28:16 <_av500_> thats what libav is for
Aug 05 06:29:39 <thurbad> heh, never thought about that even though I use it for decoding the audio in the video files :P
Aug 05 06:29:56 <thurbad> <-- egg on face
Aug 05 06:33:54 <thurbad> don't suppose it's thread safe?
Aug 05 06:34:15 <_av500_> tinyalsa?
Aug 05 06:34:25 <thurbad> yeah
Aug 05 06:34:39 <_av500_> i guess its maybe not for you after all :)
Aug 05 06:35:00 <_av500_> but in fact, I dont know if it support several "sessions"
Aug 05 06:35:04 <_av500_> or "streams"
Aug 05 06:35:07 <_av500_> see the code
Aug 05 06:35:50 <thurbad> I'm looking now don't see any mention of threads
Aug 05 06:40:23 <thurbad> we have multiple streams going that need to be mixed together a music track, the audio track from the video and the odd sound effect occasionally
Aug 05 06:40:32 <_av500_> ah right
Aug 05 06:40:38 <_av500_> well, tinyalsa might not cover that
Aug 05 06:40:43 <_av500_> its tiny
Aug 05 06:41:32 <thurbad> heh, yeah
Aug 05 06:42:41 <thurbad> cool idea
Aug 05 16:14:15 <CodeMaven> Hi everyone... Are there any active Beagleboard / C++ gurus around and active?
Aug 05 16:27:26 <dm8tbr> CodeMaven: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Aug 05 16:33:22 <CodeMaven> I'm trying to build a simple C++ hello-worlf program on the BeagleBone, but I'm getting the dreaded 'Bus error' message... I've searched high and low through the documentation and forum and havn't found anything for getting gcc to work on the board....
Aug 05 16:39:45 <mru> hello wolf?
Aug 05 16:39:57 <mru> the app that cried wolf?
Aug 05 16:40:00 <CodeMaven> er hello world...
Aug 05 16:40:30 <mru> when do you get the bus error?
Aug 05 16:40:39 <CodeMaven> gcc is telling me that iostrem is broken.... that can't be right...
Aug 05 16:40:40 <mru> while compiling or when running the compiled wolf app?
Aug 05 16:40:48 <CodeMaven> In file included from /usr/include/c++/iosfwd:41:0,                  from /usr/include/c++/ios:39,                  from /usr/include/c++/ostream:40,                  from /usr/include/c++/iostream:40,                  from test.cc:1: /usr/include/c++/bits/stringfwd.h:57:66: internal compiler error: Bus error
Aug 05 16:40:54 <CodeMaven> when compiling
Aug 05 16:41:02 <mru> so your compiler is broken
Aug 05 16:41:07 <CodeMaven> yes.
Aug 05 16:41:21 <CodeMaven> it's the basic default Angstrom image that came with the board.
Aug 05 16:41:29 <CodeMaven> I tried reinstalling gcc, but no change.
Aug 05 16:43:24 <CodeMaven> I have: gcc - 4.5-r49+svnr184907
Aug 05 17:10:18 <venebone> hi... is somebody use Qt on beaglebone?
Aug 05 17:12:02 <venebone> I don't know that I must to do, after to compile the qt embedded libs
Aug 05 17:56:47 <mru> mranostay, prpplague, etc: http://malcolmgladwellbookgenerator.com/images/15.jpg
Aug 05 17:57:06 <prpplague> hehe
Aug 05 18:32:17 <mranostay> mru: i don't know what you talking about. i don't drink :P
Aug 05 18:33:44 <mru> I didn't mean to imply you did
Aug 05 18:33:50 <mru> just thought you might find it funny
Aug 05 18:35:59 <shawn> has anyone had success using buildroot to build a setup for a beagleboard xm rev c?
Aug 05 18:36:18 <mru> I'm sure _someone_ has
Aug 05 18:36:22 <mru> for some value of success
Aug 05 18:39:08 <dm8tbr> archos gen8 uses same soc and they build their libc userspace with BR
Aug 05 18:50:19 <mranostay> god my isp sucks
Aug 05 19:02:40 <venebone> hi...
Aug 05 19:03:09 <venebone> I did install ubuntu 12.04 into my beagle....
Aug 05 19:03:59 <venebone> but... I don't be sure what toolchains I must to use
Aug 05 19:05:04 <venebone> where can I download the toolchain?
Aug 05 19:06:03 <dm8tbr> venebone: what are you trying to do?
Aug 05 19:07:40 <venebone> dm8tbr:  I want install a toolchain for ubuntu-arm.... I have arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi and is ok with angstrom distro....
Aug 05 19:08:19 <venebone> but this toolchain   isn't work with ubuntu-arm
Aug 05 19:10:58 <venebone> dm8tbr: do you understand me?
Aug 05 19:12:00 <dm8tbr> I don't understand why you need a cross-compile toolchain
Aug 05 19:12:20 <dm8tbr> I'd expect ubuntu to have one themselves though.
Aug 05 19:14:49 <venebone> dm8tbr: I want to compile on my pc... and then run on my bealgle with ubuntu....
Aug 05 19:18:03 <dm8tbr> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
Aug 05 19:18:11 <dm8tbr> just chose the right one...
Aug 05 19:18:44 <venebone> dm8tbr: thank you
