**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Feb 08 02:59:59 2013 Feb 08 03:29:43 yay, I made it back to civilization Feb 08 04:11:08 Russ: I am using clock_nanosleep and sched_setscheduler on my code however, the time between signals are 591 microseconds where it supposed to be 416 usec. could you take a look at my code if I am doing something wrong http://pastebin.com/KgPFcF5k ? when I remove clock_nanosleep on the while(1) loop, I measure the time between the signals as 11.2 nanoseconds. it seems like I am doing something wrong Feb 08 04:17:35 what is the resolution of the timer you are using? Feb 08 04:19:11 and what is your timer slack? Feb 08 04:21:20 1ms/div Feb 08 04:21:45 if your timer slack is 1ms, you need to adjust it Feb 08 04:22:50 I am using a digital oscilloscope that automatically adjusts the axises,it looks fine on it http://i.stack.imgur.com/smQgT.png Feb 08 04:24:04 ok, you are telling me the answer to different question Feb 08 04:24:09 what about the two questions I asked? Feb 08 04:24:11 do you see any mistake on my code? is there another way to validate whether the timing is accurate or not? Feb 08 04:24:44 ah sorry, I noticed that I misunderstood your questions Feb 08 04:33:13 Russ: now I understand how I suppose to use clock_nanosleep. I fix the resolution and it works perfectly now:) thank you very much:) Feb 08 04:41:02 nice netsplit Feb 08 04:42:29 swjh, I'm amazed it actually worked from userspace :) Feb 08 04:44:37 Russ: it works with 9 microsecond deviation but it should be normal I guess. I learned useful information from you, thanks a lot for your helps Feb 08 04:45:53 are you using absolute times with clock_nanosleep? That would make it so you jitter instead of drift Feb 08 04:47:51 I use clock_getres( CLOCK_REALTIME, &req); clock_nanosleep(CLOCK_MONOTONIC ,0, &req, NULL); if I did not understand it wrong, it is relative time, isn't it? Feb 08 04:48:50 the TIMER_ABSTIME indicates you want an absolute time Feb 08 04:49:20 ...and that isn't what you use clock_getres for, did you read the manpage? Feb 08 04:58:25 Russ: who reads the docs? Feb 08 04:58:48 when all else fails.... Feb 08 05:00:11 I read it, I read it again Feb 08 05:01:11 read all the things! Feb 08 05:02:24 I am doing it, it would help if the man pages have good examples as well. Feb 08 05:24:21 heh never noticed the bear on my CA drivers license Feb 08 05:25:15 are you making private copies? Feb 08 05:25:35 bearwithme Feb 08 05:25:42 as it were... Feb 08 05:41:04 Russ: clock_getres outputs the resolution time is 1 nsec, I could not find any clue to use it on clock_nanosleep(). what am I doing wrong on my code? Feb 08 05:51:03 clock_getres just tells you what to expect from a specific clock Feb 08 05:51:15 strange you asked about CLOCK_REALTIME, but then used CLOCK_MONOTONIC Feb 08 05:51:23 you also have to look at timer slack though Feb 08 05:52:06 stop the userland madness! Feb 08 05:53:55 Russ: I corrected CLOCK_REALTIME. how can I look at timer slack? Feb 08 05:55:40 did you ream man 7 time Feb 08 05:55:55 ds2, I'm in a reckless mood Feb 08 05:59:14 admitting to CUI? Feb 08 05:59:51 no, no performance enhancing substances Feb 08 06:05:23 mdp is a famous internet person https://lwn.net/Articles/536016/ Feb 08 06:06:00 i need to latch on this stuff :P Feb 08 07:14:07 greetings trolls Feb 08 07:15:14 crap Feb 08 07:16:25 that's not a nice greeting Feb 08 07:17:18 * mranostay tosses a chocolate at KotH Feb 08 07:17:25 The troll reference or crap? Feb 08 07:17:29 * emeb_mac used to have a doormat that said "Oh No! Not you again!" Feb 08 07:17:36 mranostay: thanks, but i have swiss chocolate Feb 08 07:21:41 so a logic analyzer that drops one sample in 8khz, bad? :) Feb 08 07:23:04 mranostay: how much data does it generate? Feb 08 07:23:25 goodmorning Feb 08 07:23:37 200 mhz samples possible Feb 08 07:23:43 so 100 mhz signal Feb 08 07:24:34 hmm 'Restricting voltage, 3735899821-4294967295uV' Feb 08 07:24:43 you're measuring digital, so you are not limited by the shanon limit :) Feb 08 07:24:51 er.. niquist limit Feb 08 07:24:55 still too early ^^' Feb 08 07:24:59 only 4MV, that'd be ok Feb 08 07:25:23 Russ: cool.. my devices only do 2MV Feb 08 07:25:30 crap right not a DSO Feb 08 07:25:54 given the '��π�:' device name printed before it, I think there may be something uninitialized Feb 08 07:26:30 mranostay: if you are sampling with 8khz and losing samples, then i would guess there is a software bug in the control soft Feb 08 07:27:30 KotH: no this would done with a PRU :) Feb 08 07:27:52 there is a pesky jmp _start statement :) Feb 08 07:28:18 mranostay: get a asix sigma2 Feb 08 07:28:29 easier, less work and it does work very well Feb 08 07:32:17 trying to exploit the PRU for $$$ :) Feb 08 07:32:55 or at least $$ Feb 08 07:37:51 bitbang Feb 08 07:41:59 +1 Feb 08 08:07:03 anybody here ever tried to use 9-bit uart on omap? (by 'mis-using' the parity bit) Feb 08 08:07:13 and no, I don't want to bitbang it ;) Feb 08 08:10:31 I'm able to send 9-bit's (using STKYP in UART LCR register) but I'm not able to read back the 9-bit answer Feb 08 08:13:17 er don't you need that stop bit to be sane? Feb 08 08:15:05 No, its the 9'th bith is only used to mark the message as an 'adress-message' in the send message and to mark the 'end-message' in the received message Feb 08 08:15:58 (its MDB, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multidrop_bus a bus used in vending machines) Feb 08 08:22:07 sounds like a job for the PRU Feb 08 08:22:47 PRU? Feb 08 08:23:02 programmable realtime unit, its available on some omap processors Feb 08 08:23:19 Popcorn Rehashing Unit Feb 08 08:23:44 mouser sent me a FRAM for dummies book today Feb 08 08:23:49 not sure what thats about Feb 08 08:42:46 mrpacket_: TI FRAM MCUs for dummies? Feb 08 08:45:54 <_av500_> I have that too Feb 08 08:46:06 <_av500_> proves I am a dummy Feb 08 08:49:16 hmm one thing I'm somehow missing with prpplague's muxing thingy is, how does it switch? or is it really just for 'listening' to the SDIO? Feb 08 08:49:30 <_av500_> not sure Feb 08 08:49:41 IOW I don't see two pins labelled 'switch' ;) Feb 08 08:51:29 <_av500_> i guess we have to wait for TX to wake up Feb 08 08:58:55 need to see the back Feb 08 09:00:29 <_av500_> back in black Feb 08 09:02:50 U1 and U3 are probably 74157's Feb 08 09:03:30 their A/B pin is pin 1 Feb 08 09:03:35 which goes to a via, so I can't see Feb 08 09:04:50 it looks like A/B is probably wired into VCC of target Feb 08 09:04:55 which U2 switches on and off Feb 08 09:05:15 err, wait, VCC comes from the target Feb 08 09:05:21 it all makes sense now Feb 08 09:05:29 when the target is off, the host controls the sd card Feb 08 09:05:45 <_av500_> yes Feb 08 09:05:49 <_av500_> that is what I thought Feb 08 09:06:16 <_av500_> so you need a tgt power switch to make it work Feb 08 09:07:21 U2 must be a diode pair, allowing J1 to be powered by host or target Feb 08 09:08:29 <_av500_> Russ: you are doing reverse-name-that-ware :) Feb 08 09:09:01 would you like a schematic? Feb 08 09:09:18 <_av500_> to make it count, I need the VHDL of the 74157 :) Feb 08 09:13:43 KotH, thats the one Feb 08 09:13:57 mrpacket_: dont waste your time reading it Feb 08 09:14:06 mrpacket_: all it tells you is that fram is so much better than flash Feb 08 09:14:06 <_av500_> I wasted 15minutes Feb 08 09:14:24 poor _av500_ Feb 08 09:14:27 <_av500_> now I want a board with 1GB FRAM Feb 08 09:14:31 you'll never get those 15min back Feb 08 09:14:33 mhm, I guess switching by host is one approach. although cards are hot-plug, so an external option might be good too Feb 08 09:15:50 av500, why VHDL of that chip... Feb 08 09:16:11 <_av500_> ka6sox: tp up the ante Feb 08 09:16:13 <_av500_> to* Feb 08 09:16:21 <_av500_> Russ is too good Feb 08 09:16:54 thats a boring chip Feb 08 09:18:12 I *should* be asleep...but having too much fun finally getting to design instead of solve problems. Feb 08 09:18:32 * KotH gives ka6sox a turkish coffee Feb 08 09:18:45 uh, neat so the chip in some form has been around since 1974. :) Feb 08 09:19:18 <_av500_> ka6sox: I love to desing problems Feb 08 09:19:22 <_av500_> design* Feb 08 09:20:50 dm8tbr, ya, thats only 15 gates Feb 08 09:21:20 _av500_, mostly I get to solve mux problems..not design them (these days) Feb 08 09:21:27 yup, saw the datasheet Feb 08 09:21:39 boring....but useful Feb 08 09:21:49 hardly worth even a CPLD Feb 08 09:22:05 a PAL maybe Feb 08 09:22:38 <_av500_> tubes Feb 08 09:23:10 ya, Valves FTW Feb 08 09:23:24 nixies? ;) Feb 08 09:23:39 sssh, you will wake up mranostay Feb 08 09:23:42 pixies? Feb 08 09:23:54 <_av500_> dixies Feb 08 09:24:16 * dm8tbr would rather use 4CX10000 or something like that, but that's not exactly the application area Feb 08 09:24:33 _av500_: our generation did not do these dances Feb 08 09:24:35 ;) Feb 08 09:24:51 dm8tbr, I have one of those for a doorstop. Feb 08 09:25:00 :D Feb 08 09:25:10 also makes a good boat-anchor Feb 08 09:25:12 it has a shattered grid. Feb 08 09:25:33 don't get any of the berylium on you Feb 08 09:25:49 yeah, that's nasty stuff Feb 08 09:26:13 thankfully most of the transmitters I worked on have switched from 9700V@4A to 45V@280A Feb 08 09:26:16 * _av500_ loves Berylium Waffles Feb 08 09:26:26 <_av500_> or how are they called? Feb 08 09:26:35 cakes Feb 08 09:26:37 mmmmmm, waffles... Feb 08 09:26:39 it was a way of getting you to read a TI white paper Feb 08 09:26:47 whcih you normally would ingore Feb 08 09:27:02 <_av500_> I love the OMAP for dummies Feb 08 09:27:02 What i want to know is why is it called "Ferro" Feb 08 09:27:10 * ka6sox ambles off to sleep Feb 08 09:27:22 when theres not even a whisker of iron in the thing Feb 08 09:27:27 its a SCAM Feb 08 09:27:32 FRAM is a SCAM Feb 08 09:27:43 <_av500_> omap for dummies throws you deep inside TI [C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C[CDSP codec development Feb 08 09:27:48 <_av500_> hrmm Feb 08 09:27:59 * _av500_ kicks the interwebs Feb 08 09:28:10 <_av500_> mrpacket_: the pins might have iron? Feb 08 09:28:25 * dm8tbr irons out the pins Feb 08 09:28:55 <_av500_> isnt the also MRAM, does that have Magneto inside? Feb 08 09:29:05 <_av500_> there* Feb 08 09:29:33 mrpacket_: ok.. read it Feb 08 09:29:37 is Magneto an ice-cream flavor. Feb 08 09:29:39 mrpacket_: it explains why it is called ferro Feb 08 09:30:02 can i buy some FRAM now. Feb 08 09:30:14 <_av500_> FerreroRAM Feb 08 09:30:16 does someone have a kernel ready for FRAM Feb 08 09:30:18 hoy hoy, joining the SD card device discussion that started on G+ :) Feb 08 09:30:19 <_av500_> it hasa surprise inside Feb 08 09:30:30 <_av500_> kos_tom: :) Feb 08 09:34:15 FRAMstag? T5F? Feb 08 10:29:48 koen, congrats on the circuitco milestone Feb 08 10:30:19 milestone? Feb 08 10:30:48 Russ: which one? Feb 08 10:30:57 100k beagle or me working there for a year now? Feb 08 10:31:02 (or something else) Feb 08 10:31:05 didn't think about the year one Feb 08 10:31:08 but yes, the 100k beagle Feb 08 10:31:27 koen: oh you are a circuit-coer. Feb 08 10:31:34 apparently there will be cake Feb 08 10:31:53 I was contemplating asking for #100001 Feb 08 10:31:56 gold plated edittion Feb 08 10:32:00 and suggesting that 33 beagles is not much Feb 08 10:32:00 I sadly will not get any cake Feb 08 10:32:22 koen: wow, 100k beagles ? congrats :-) Feb 08 10:32:22 don't care for beagle-gold, how far is beagle-black? Feb 08 10:32:41 if you only made them $12.50 Feb 08 10:32:47 mrpacket_: it is "announced", will launch in a few months provided the software gets fixed Feb 08 10:33:02 cool. Feb 08 10:33:16 the white beagle will remain though? Feb 08 10:33:20 yes Feb 08 10:33:23 http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/BB-BBLK-000/BB-BBLK-000-ND/3884456 Feb 08 10:33:24 koen, just out of curiosity, what would be the cost of assembly for 1 of these: http://www.flickr.com/photos/russdill/7453956642/in/set-72157632431535574/lightbox/ Feb 08 10:33:48 <_av500_> Russ: 54 Feb 08 10:34:06 av500, damn, that's steep Feb 08 10:34:06 Russ: we'll do it for $53.99 Feb 08 10:34:17 if I only do half, is it 26? Feb 08 10:34:27 <_av500_> Russ: you did not even ask for the currency Feb 08 10:34:29 if i miss some pads, or short them do you mind? Feb 08 10:34:42 Russ: ping me on monday, I'll the at the factory then Feb 08 10:34:51 currnecy in #beagle is only ever beer-tokens, or bitcoins Feb 08 10:35:03 <_av500_> Russ: oh, I thought you wanted that on a t-shirt.... Feb 08 10:35:06 ok Feb 08 10:35:09 <_av500_> never mind Feb 08 10:35:31 <_av500_> wtf does it do? Feb 08 10:35:51 koen: how viable are mods to the beagle to make somethign thats similar but not standard Feb 08 10:35:53 virtex6 fpga + 128GB flash Feb 08 10:36:07 <_av500_> ah Feb 08 10:36:10 <_av500_> so it does nothing Feb 08 10:36:11 mrpacket_: that's where cco is making the real money: custom spins Feb 08 10:36:14 in particular i want to get to a few pins that are not avaialble on the header.. Feb 08 10:37:01 so, you do that kind of thing? Feb 08 10:37:23 yes Feb 08 10:37:30 mmm Feb 08 10:37:40 whos best to talk to then? Feb 08 10:37:47 clint@circuitco.com Feb 08 10:37:52 ok.. Feb 08 10:38:40 cc: bob@circuitco.com as well, clint and I will be travelling and visiting customers the next few weeks Feb 08 10:38:59 (translation: drinking beer and eating sushi at ELC) Feb 08 10:39:18 which reminds me Feb 08 10:39:21 coming to middle-earth? Feb 08 10:39:22 need to start on my slides Feb 08 10:39:48 mrpacket_: no, texas and california Feb 08 10:39:53 lol.. Feb 08 10:40:06 i will be in both TX and CA in a couple of months Feb 08 10:40:12 what part of TX are you gusy? Feb 08 10:40:31 * Russ guesses koen is going to dallas Feb 08 10:40:31 DFW area Feb 08 10:40:50 oh, very convient Feb 08 10:41:08 thats were i have two customers. Feb 08 10:41:44 'dallas' and 'convenient' in one sentence... Feb 08 10:42:02 <_av500_> it was as long as TI was there.... Feb 08 10:42:04 everything is only 10 minutes away by car Feb 08 10:43:35 im wondering if i shoudl consider jsut getting a single board made Feb 08 10:43:52 <_av500_> unique Feb 08 10:43:54 rather than sticking a beagle on teh back of another board Feb 08 10:43:57 <_av500_> one of a kind Feb 08 10:44:03 <_av500_> precioussssss Feb 08 10:44:16 which signals do you need that you aren't getting anyway? Feb 08 10:44:24 Russ: thats top secrect Feb 08 10:44:33 lol. Feb 08 10:44:37 no pinmux? Feb 08 10:44:37 ones that are NC Feb 08 10:45:08 pinmux yes, but when the copper dont' go to the pin.. Feb 08 10:45:25 theres a good chance that the pins could get joint onto something else. Feb 08 10:45:33 * Russ finds 10 unconnected pins Feb 08 10:45:49 DDR_A14/DDR_A15 can't be it Feb 08 10:45:55 DDR_RESETN can't be it Feb 08 10:46:31 specificlly, Feb 08 10:46:48 T2, V4, T5, V3 and T13 Feb 08 10:47:28 PR1_MDIO_DATA?

Feb 08 13:03:39 might be better to ask in a gstreamer channel Feb 08 13:04:52 or in #issues Feb 08 13:05:34 <_av500_> or in #using Feb 08 13:05:49 _av500_: have you been using again?

Feb 08 14:45:30 The same SD card works good for 3.2.23 kernel Feb 08 14:45:36 any suggestions. Feb 08 14:46:04 I get teh following error : [ 1.826497] mmcblk0: p1 p2 [ 1.870711] VFS: Cannot open root device "mmcblk0p2" or unknown-block(179,2) Feb 08 14:46:52 Am using am335x_evm_defconfig to build the kernel Feb 08 14:47:23 <_av500_> I would refer to the angstrom kernel Feb 08 14:47:29 <_av500_> that works Feb 08 14:47:36 since there is no config file for teh beaglebone explicitely unde 3.2.34 from github Feb 08 14:50:05 Any suggestions? Feb 08 14:50:14 <_av500_> use the angstrom kernel Feb 08 14:51:32 can you please point me to the link/repository? Feb 08 14:53:14 <_av500_> http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/ Feb 08 14:53:36 (that's not very specific) Feb 08 15:00:20 <_av500_> a random kernel is not likely to work Feb 08 15:00:27 <_av500_> the one that's in angstrom works Feb 08 15:01:01 (sigh. linux.) Feb 08 15:01:16 ah, bsdbeards Feb 08 15:05:00 <_av500_> whwre? Feb 08 15:05:06 o/ Feb 08 15:05:13 <_av500_> ah Feb 08 15:05:25 (well, maybe not the beard part) Feb 08 15:06:08 <_av500_> isnt that now what the "B" stands for? Feb 08 15:06:24 Beard Software Distribution Feb 08 15:11:39 I'm sorry i still did not get the sources for beaglebone for kernel version 3.2.34 Feb 08 15:12:18 <_av500_> and it has to be .34? Feb 08 15:12:55 dm8tbr: schematic - https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1FV_VIiqk4edlJ3czdqOHlHcUk/edit?usp=sharing Feb 08 15:13:25 yeah!! :-) Lil' specific about that Feb 08 15:13:37 :) Feb 08 15:14:07 I pulled the sources from here https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel.git Feb 08 15:14:20 patched them and was able to build as well Feb 08 15:14:55 but the kernel gives an error while mounting the file system Feb 08 15:15:22 [ 1.826497] mmcblk0: p1 p2 [ 1.870711] VFS: Cannot open root device "mmcblk0p2" or unknown-block(179,2) Feb 08 15:15:54 the same SD card works if i replace teh uImage with 3.2.23!! Feb 08 15:16:04 Am i missing anything? Feb 08 15:18:00 vij: most likely you are, yes. otherwise it would find the device, wouldn't it? Feb 08 15:19:40 dm8tbr: yes. Like i mentioned the same SD card works very well if i replace teh uImage with 3.2.23 Feb 08 15:19:42 so, after looking at the schematic for the muxer, I'd propose to put a jumper into the V_R_SD line, so that you can plug in something switched by the host pc. relay, FET, whatever. Feb 08 15:20:07 <_av500_> dm8tbr: you want to yank the card from the tgt? Feb 08 15:20:12 <_av500_> say hello to dead cards Feb 08 15:20:31 punch cards? Feb 08 15:20:38 i can confirm that the card is good Feb 08 15:20:48 _av500_: hmm, I thought you can eject cards from running devices? Feb 08 15:21:06 <_av500_> dm8tbr: yes you can, right bottom of the screen Feb 08 15:21:11 <_av500_> "eject safely" Feb 08 15:21:39 will that _always_ turn off V_R_SD? Feb 08 15:21:52 yes.., Feb 08 15:22:11 If i put bck teh 3.2.23 image it boots up fine Feb 08 15:22:20 <_av500_> dm8tbr: no Feb 08 15:22:27 vij: have you asked your supervisor for a new project yet? Feb 08 15:22:35 <_av500_> but you do not want to interrupt an ongoing write Feb 08 15:22:55 pulling the card while powered is not a problem Feb 08 15:23:02 just make sure it's idle Feb 08 15:23:10 <_av500_> yes Feb 08 15:23:16 dm8tbr: what could be the issue Feb 08 15:23:24 <_av500_> dont use ubuntu on the target Feb 08 15:23:38 This is on the tgt side Feb 08 15:23:56 vij: you do realize that there are several conversations ongoing, right? Feb 08 15:24:59 ok.., yep.., any heads up/ suggestions for the issue which i'm facing Feb 08 15:25:20 let me scroll back for you... Feb 08 15:25:52 14:47:23< _av500_> I would refer to the angstrom kernel Feb 08 15:25:52 14:47:28< _av500_> that works Feb 08 15:26:50 _av500_: out of interest, have you seen dead cards in case of removing them during write? Feb 08 15:27:09 <_av500_> I have seen dead cards Feb 08 15:27:15 <_av500_> ask tglx Feb 08 15:27:34 <_av500_> dm8tbr: we tried to kill cards by writing on them Feb 08 15:27:36 <_av500_> no way Feb 08 15:27:38 I've also seen dead cards, after I stepped on them ;) Feb 08 15:27:40 <_av500_> c't says the same Feb 08 15:27:51 <_av500_> so, writing a lot is not the issue Feb 08 15:28:02 <_av500_> I doubt reading kills them Feb 08 15:28:11 <_av500_> so it only leaves power sequnecing in any way Feb 08 15:28:13 how about killing VDD during a write? Feb 08 15:28:19 <_av500_> yes Feb 08 15:28:38 I guess that's why some of the pins are longer on those cards :) Feb 08 15:29:16 but is like 1mm really enough time to let the last write go through before power is gone too? Feb 08 15:29:23 <_av500_> its not for that Feb 08 15:29:32 what's it then? Feb 08 15:29:35 <_av500_> the 1mm is to apply power to VCC beforee the IO pins Feb 08 15:29:41 <_av500_> and remove after Feb 08 15:29:49 <_av500_> so you dont feed power via io pins Feb 08 15:29:56 <_av500_> its not to protect the write Feb 08 15:29:56 ah Feb 08 15:30:05 * dm8tbr learned something new Feb 08 15:30:23 <_av500_> cf cards have that too Feb 08 15:31:02 express-cards too Feb 08 15:31:09 pcmcia/cardbus too Feb 08 15:31:11 and sata Feb 08 15:31:13 and usb Feb 08 15:31:17 ... Feb 08 15:31:29 and hdmi Feb 08 15:31:46 in fact, _any_ hotplug interface does this Feb 08 15:31:51 'could this all be related?' ;) Feb 08 15:32:01 <_av500_> a conspiracy Feb 08 15:40:26 vij: did you *read* the README.md file? Feb 08 15:40:49 (that's a rhetorical question, I know you didn't, since you used the wrong config) Feb 08 15:40:52 koen: it's blank! Feb 08 15:41:30 and a trap Feb 08 15:41:46 it's always a trap Feb 08 15:45:16 _av500_: btw, if I read the schematic correctly then the worst that can happen is a slight jump in VDD because it will switch to the VDD provided by the PC, so a write shouldn't actually fail, just the commands would get lost Feb 08 15:47:53 no, but swapping the i/o lines to another controller without resetting the card confuses things pretty badly Feb 08 15:54:26 mru: hmm, that might be a general problem with this design then? as the TPS2105 is designed for exactly that, uninterrupted voltage Feb 08 15:56:39 at least strange things happened with the first prototypes and we suspected that might have been the cause Feb 08 16:28:25 the plague!!! Feb 08 16:29:27 hi prpplague Feb 08 16:29:36 greetings all Feb 08 16:29:36 yellow Feb 08 16:30:03 dm8tbr: you get that url for viewing the sd mux schematic Feb 08 16:30:05 dm8tbr: ? Feb 08 16:30:15 prpplague: there are some things around this muxer design that are unsolved. yes I've read it. Feb 08 16:30:15 <_av500_> yes Feb 08 16:30:31 dm8tbr: oh? Feb 08 16:30:34 dm8tbr: such as? Feb 08 16:30:40 <_av500_> prpplague: when did it get out of fashion to make schematics in a way that shows how stuff is connected Feb 08 16:30:42 prpplague: mru said that cards want to be reset before reconnecting to a new device Feb 08 16:31:02 av500: I could read it well enough, it's not _that_ complicated a design ;) Feb 08 16:31:04 or did that turn out not to be the problem? Feb 08 16:31:15 mru: that was part of the problem Feb 08 16:31:26 what was the other part? Feb 08 16:31:36 <_av500_> dm8tbr: i could read it too Feb 08 16:31:42 <_av500_> its more a general trend Feb 08 16:31:42 prpplague: on the other hand I said that it would be nice to be able to force-disconnect the card from the target. Feb 08 16:31:52 _av500_: good, I'd have been disappoint ;) Feb 08 16:32:14 mru: the major problem was that both the host and target try to do a reset, the problem was that the caps on the system i was using were keeping the reset from happening due to short length of the reset Feb 08 16:32:43 dm8tbr: yea my preference would have been to use an integrated usb card reader with a bunch of usb controls Feb 08 16:32:51 eeew Feb 08 16:32:55 hehe Feb 08 16:32:58 dm8tbr: but linaro was interested in a more basic solution Feb 08 16:33:08 oh, so this is for linaro Feb 08 16:33:15 <_av500_> for the build cluster Feb 08 16:33:19 makes a lot of sense for LAVA Feb 08 16:33:23 dm8tbr: it is available for anyone, but linaro was the one pushing it Feb 08 16:33:27 that was actually my first thought Feb 08 16:33:35 _av500_: it does make sense for testing sd card booting... Feb 08 16:33:42 <_av500_> yes Feb 08 16:33:43 as we're also looking at LAVA for our internal stuff Feb 08 16:33:58 _av500_: hehe yea good schematics are a lost art, hehe Feb 08 16:34:37 dm8tbr: i've run tests on the design, it's good up to around 75 MHz clocks, and i was able to test it with a wide range of sd card readers Feb 08 16:34:56 prpplague: anyway, it should be easy enough for interested parties to put some kind of switch into V_R_SD that can be controlled by the host Feb 08 16:35:32 dm8tbr: indeed Feb 08 16:35:45 (I'm thinking of scenarios where you want to eject a card while the target is running and later reconnect it) Feb 08 16:35:48 dm8tbr: here is the script linaro has for controling the power for the sd card reader side - http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~linaro-validation/lava-dispatcher/trunk/view/head:/lava_dispatcher/device/sdmux.sh Feb 08 16:36:02 dm8tbr: you can power the reader on/off Feb 08 16:36:03 <_av500_> mru: for boot testing a solution that emulates a card would be nice Feb 08 16:36:12 dm8tbr: so it simulates a re-connect Feb 08 16:36:22 _av500_: there's something to be said for testing with a real card Feb 08 16:37:05 prpplague: ok, but I'd expect not all DUTs support cutting VDD by software Feb 08 16:37:15 <_av500_> depends on what you are testing Feb 08 16:37:36 dm8tbr: yea, but the vast majoring do Feb 08 16:37:45 ok Feb 08 16:38:10 dm8tbr: the linaro folks are using the phidgets to power the DUT on/off Feb 08 16:38:27 dm8tbr: but the sd card mux sh script is for powering the sd reader on/off Feb 08 16:38:39 prpplague: yes, I understand that Feb 08 16:38:44 dm8tbr: ahh ok Feb 08 16:39:06 prpplague: I'm pursuing a different test-case setup, albeit less important. Feb 08 16:39:15 dm8tbr: if there is plenty of interest on this, the next version will have a solid state relay to power the DUT on/off, as well as an integrated card reader Feb 08 16:39:38 prpplague: I would leave it as is. KISS is king. Feb 08 16:40:01 <_av500_> I vote for arduino shield capability Feb 08 16:40:13 <_av500_> that helps to sell stuff Feb 08 16:40:42 _av500_: hehe Feb 08 16:40:42 prpplague: the case I'm thinking about is, that you have a second/separate SD slot in your device and want to test functionality related to inserting and ejecting sd cards that are storage for the device you are testing Feb 08 16:41:04 dm8tbr: ahh Feb 08 16:41:26 there it's important to be able to remove and reconnect the card while the DUT is powered (and thus VDD_R) Feb 08 16:41:40 not what this was designed for, I know Feb 08 16:41:47 dm8tbr: as well as the card detect signal Feb 08 16:42:06 dm8tbr: it is failure modular , so there are some different things we can do Feb 08 16:42:30 fairly? ;) Feb 08 16:42:37 freud strikes back Feb 08 16:42:38 dm8tbr: just fyi, i also have my hdmi/dvi debug board on the way was well Feb 08 16:42:42 dm8tbr: indeed Feb 08 16:42:52 dm8tbr: too many conversations going on Feb 08 16:42:54 nice :) Feb 08 16:43:16 dm8tbr: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1FV_VIiqk4eV1J6TUNNeFdTR1k/edit?usp=sharing Feb 08 16:43:26 dm8tbr: you can either simulate or debug dvi/hdmi Feb 08 16:43:38 dm8tbr: so as part of your testing you can add that to lava Feb 08 16:43:54 dm8tbr: next version will have a combine fpga to output timing data Feb 08 16:45:22 :) Feb 08 16:45:36 <_av500_> prpplague: what does that do? Feb 08 16:46:07 _av500_: hehe which item? the hdmi/dvi debug board? Feb 08 16:46:32 dm8tbr: well the target price for the sdmux kit is going to be $49.99USD Feb 08 16:46:41 <_av500_> prpplague: yes Feb 08 16:47:05 _av500_: basically it pretends to be a dvi display so you can attach a LA or scope and view the timings Feb 08 16:47:05 prpplague: I'm taking notes. :) Feb 08 16:47:13 <_av500_> prpplague: ah Feb 08 16:47:29 <_av500_> because cat'ting sysfs is too hard? Feb 08 16:47:40 _av500_: because sysfs can lie Feb 08 16:47:46 <_av500_> hang it! Feb 08 16:47:49 _av500_: as robclark recently found out Feb 08 16:48:45 $ cat /sys/devices/cake Feb 08 16:48:46 1 Feb 08 16:48:58 _av500_: you going to make it to elc? Feb 08 16:49:08 <_av500_> prpplague: nope Feb 08 16:49:16 <_av500_> no sponsoring Feb 08 16:49:23 _av500_: so who will troll my talk? Feb 08 16:49:38 hehe Feb 08 16:49:49 <_av500_> mru: do it like prpplague, have an IRC window open Feb 08 16:50:01 gah, need to finish those damn slides too Feb 08 16:50:03 <_av500_> or was that jkridner Feb 08 16:50:10 famous irc people Feb 08 16:50:10 moaning Feb 08 16:54:01 prpplague: awesome price...I need a couple for my autotest bench Feb 08 16:54:18 * dm8tbr won't be able to troll anyones talk :( Feb 08 16:54:45 remote troll engaged Feb 08 16:54:52 <_av500_> troll drones Feb 08 16:55:13 octotrollbsdcopters Feb 08 16:56:59 morning Feb 08 16:57:11 moaning Feb 08 16:57:12 a troll!!

Feb 08 17:38:51 there are way too many laws Feb 08 17:39:25 now a few more _laws of nature_ making certain things impossible, I wouldn't mind Feb 08 17:44:09 i dunno, I always wanted to control my own gravity :) Feb 08 17:44:51 sure, I didn't say I liked _all_ the laws of nature Feb 08 17:48:27 prpplague, why the mosfet switch rather than just a cathode common diode pair? Feb 08 17:57:48 hmm...I suppose it may offer better test coverage if the target is supplying current Feb 08 18:41:01 koen, is narcissus sick? Feb 08 18:42:16 not that I know off Feb 08 18:42:32 ltg ran out of space (again), but that should be fixed now Feb 08 18:42:42 * mdp holds his hand to narcissus' forehead Feb 08 18:42:43 emerald was fine when I checked this morning Feb 08 18:42:47 seems ok Feb 08 18:43:07 I am going to spread the fosdem plague in philly and dfw soon, though Feb 08 18:43:34 is it that stupid stomach flu?

Feb 08 19:08:38 yes, fixed Feb 08 19:09:38 and I can't load narcissus from here Feb 08 19:10:43 ah Feb 08 19:10:52 ka6sox: can you poke emerald, it looks sick? Feb 08 19:14:28 if you need to talk about xrayiong your hw in your kickstarter page, you are doing it wrong Feb 08 19:14:39 koen, it is....

Feb 08 19:19:50 time to go Feb 08 19:19:59 cya troll-boys & troll-gals Feb 08 19:20:16 bladerf Feb 08 19:20:28 <_av500_> bladder? Feb 08 19:20:34 ya Feb 08 19:20:37 bladder full? Feb 08 19:20:51 bladerf hit their KS goal and then some Feb 08 19:21:01 not impressed w/ their choice of front-end chips. Feb 08 19:24:16 interesting part, but no tracking filter or roofing filter so likely needs additional signal conditioning. Feb 08 19:24:28 and 300MHz min input. Feb 08 19:29:12 <_av500_> yaeh, cant do FM Feb 08 19:29:15 <_av500_> fail Feb 08 19:32:01 <_av500_> I dont get the point of the people that back such stuff Feb 08 19:32:11 Russ: it handles the switch over a lot smoother Feb 08 19:32:13 I get the feeling they want you to hook it to an additional front-end filter/transverter subsystem. Feb 08 19:32:16 <_av500_> I guess they all expect they will do awesome stuff wiht it Feb 08 19:32:28 <_av500_> and I somewhat doubt that Feb 08 19:32:28 I hate how broken everything is on OSX. Feb 08 19:32:38 <_av500_> Kristina: nooo, osx is awesome Feb 08 19:32:41 _av500_: yep - they have dreams Feb 08 19:32:50 <_av500_> somebody should port it to OMAP Feb 08 19:33:01 <_av500_> emeb: I had fever dreams Feb 08 19:33:04 That would be me.

Feb 08 19:34:37 I'm going to find and kill the people who wrote this driver. Feb 08 19:34:51 * emeb is glad he doesn't write drivers. Feb 08 19:35:39 my feeling is they want to play around with the hw and are using kickstarter to get some money Feb 08 19:35:46 +1 Feb 08 19:36:54 Ugh, fucking cancerous hungarian notation :< Feb 08 19:36:58 I wonder how succesfull kickstarter to develop docs on using fpga for cool signal processing would be Feb 08 19:36:58 +2 Feb 08 19:36:59 <_av500_> is that not the point of kickstarter? to get some money?

Feb 08 21:01:40 I was more interested in what the Unis are installing into CS-types versus say, EE types these days Feb 08 21:01:50 no.. it just means its a challenge to managment Feb 08 21:02:10 i've come to the conclusion i don't actually care what Universitys are teaching Feb 08 21:02:12 mrpackethead yes sure but its not good in the end Feb 08 21:02:17 there's always been chaff with years of seniority everywhere Feb 08 21:02:45 i'm much more interested in how a grad can demostrate how they will learn new stuff Feb 08 21:02:50 than what they know today Feb 08 21:03:03 <_av500_> whyt do you mean learn new stuff??? Feb 08 21:03:21 <_av500_> I have this paper Feb 08 21:03:31 toilett? Feb 08 21:03:39 the best thing you can learn at university, is how to learn Feb 08 21:03:52 <_av500_> sadly they dont teach that Feb 08 21:03:53 and hopefully how to solve problems Feb 08 21:04:00 best thing is to understand the concepts Feb 08 21:04:07 and pick the cool projects Feb 08 21:04:10 <_av500_> the best thing are the parties Feb 08 21:04:14 like robocup Feb 08 21:04:59 and of course O-notation Feb 08 21:05:47 this simple mod makes the bone so much more useable Feb 08 21:06:35 ds2: running it off DC rather than AC? Feb 08 21:08:02 <_av500_> 240V makes mine run so much faster Feb 08 21:13:07 Ohhhhhh. Feb 08 21:13:08 Wow! 48 times faster :) Feb 08 21:13:28 My sound stopped working because my audio jack fell out of my subwoofer thing. Feb 08 21:13:51 Kristina hm funny Feb 08 21:14:27 Hmm. Capebus? Feb 08 21:15:27 How does that differ from the EEPROM-based port assignment that the BBone uses? Feb 08 21:15:36 what clock signal can I use from the userland to generate a PWM? Feb 08 21:15:50 on beagleboard-xm Feb 08 21:16:08 <_av500_> pwm runs of some system clock Feb 08 21:16:40 <_av500_> or you want to generate a PWM by hand? Feb 08 21:16:53 <_av500_> hmm, does XM have hw pwn? Feb 08 21:16:57 <_av500_> or only the bone? Feb 08 21:17:21 the dm37x trm mentions it Feb 08 21:17:35 _av500_: I have beagleboard-xm I would like to generate a signal using the clock signal Feb 08 21:17:51 <_av500_> yes, you said that Feb 08 21:19:55 <_av500_> ok, so there are 3 PWM pins on the expansion connector Feb 08 21:20:06 <_av500_> GPT9,10,11 Feb 08 21:23:38 pins are good Feb 08 21:24:04 thank you av500 Feb 08 21:25:04 <_av500_> djsa: may I recommend to google "beagleboard xm pwm" Feb 08 21:25:11 <_av500_> and read it all Feb 08 21:25:44 I will do that Feb 08 21:25:48 thank you Feb 08 21:26:32 hm its friday Feb 08 21:26:44 now I need someone to come in and ask about opencv Feb 08 21:27:31 woglinde: How do I OpenCV? Feb 08 21:27:44 good Feb 08 21:27:47 <_av500_> agmlego: you have to leave and come in first Feb 08 21:27:51 agmlego: I'd think it would be more like "How I OpenCV?" Feb 08 21:27:51 sure Feb 08 21:27:53 <_av500_> and bring a bottle Feb 08 21:28:05 and you forget "exact steps please" Feb 08 21:28:08 Exact steps to OpenCV on xM? Feb 08 21:28:09 Or, "My CV is closed. How do i Open it?" Feb 08 21:28:13 Heh. Feb 08 21:28:21 Shadyman haha Feb 08 21:28:22 also, greets, agmlego. Feb 08 21:28:23 good Feb 08 21:28:27 thats enough Feb 08 21:28:30 made my day Feb 08 21:28:31 i see a few familiar faces. Feb 08 21:29:28 or, nicknames. Feb 08 21:30:01 <_av500_> http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/xopad/xopad-an-open-source-usb-gamepad-for-android-smart Feb 08 21:30:07 <_av500_> I love the "meet the team" pics Feb 08 21:31:13 av500 reminds of miami vice Feb 08 21:31:47 How bizzare, I'm not getting any output over uart0 when I start my beagleboard with a jtag debugger attached. Feb 08 21:33:21 <_av500_> holding it in reset? Feb 08 21:33:26 <_av500_> emu pins? Feb 08 21:33:35 hm you habe jtag no need for uart ouput Feb 08 21:34:09 av500 hm I think the will fail 110k Feb 08 21:34:13 they Feb 08 21:34:28 <_av500_> woglinde: these days anything can happen... Feb 08 21:34:50 na Feb 08 21:34:55 <_av500_> I love how they distract themselves with color choice Feb 08 21:35:02 <_av500_> for a kickstarter Feb 08 21:35:40 they should have some pink one Feb 08 21:35:46 bloody beginners Feb 08 21:36:11 _av500_: emu0 and emu1 are both 1. Feb 08 21:37:04 <_av500_> damn, I posted the microbus at the wrong time Feb 08 21:37:08 _av500_: I don't care if it's plausible or not, I just want it to look pretty. Feb 08 21:40:34 well, clearly plausible, but yes, I see your point. Feb 08 21:42:57 * djlewis is so bored. Feb 08 21:43:35 <_av500_> djsa: no borrito? Feb 08 21:43:40 <_av500_> er, djlewis Feb 08 21:43:59 _av500_: hitting the bottle, are you ;) Feb 08 21:45:15 <_av500_> Ishould Feb 08 21:45:16 <_av500_> sec Feb 08 21:46:24 <_av500_> yes, I am Feb 08 21:49:20 hm no bottle here for me Feb 08 21:49:34 <_av500_> drink from the tap then Feb 08 21:49:45 <_av500_> or go to the späti Feb 08 21:49:47 * djlewis will go home to beer in a can later :) Feb 08 21:50:10 <_av500_> I like this one: If I smash the hope diamond and then get the pope and four world leaders to urinate on it— then surely the resulting mush would be the most rare and costly constructed substance on earth. It would also be worthless. Feb 08 21:50:17 _av500_: any suggestions on the uart issue? Feb 08 21:50:18 * agmlego has a growler still partially full at home. Feb 08 21:50:30 <_av500_> Kristina: sorry, no Feb 08 21:50:40 <_av500_> long time ago that I did jtag with TI stuff Feb 08 21:50:45 <_av500_> which one is it btw? Feb 08 21:50:50 <_av500_> does it speak omap3? Feb 08 21:51:01 av500 its to late for spaeti Feb 08 21:51:05 <_av500_> woglinde: lol Feb 08 21:51:06 debugger? yeah it does, the actual thing boots. Feb 08 21:51:10 but uart doesn't work. Feb 08 21:51:11 <_av500_> ah Feb 08 21:51:14 <_av500_> strange Feb 08 21:51:25 I can halt the core and view and alter registers. Feb 08 21:52:24 <_av500_> uart in your boot loader? Feb 08 21:53:06 No, it's just xloader. Feb 08 21:54:54 hm fx scene builder has swipe Feb 08 21:55:13 <_av500_> woglinde: swipe to unlock? Feb 08 21:55:55 <_av500_> Kristina: what debugger is that? Feb 08 21:56:34 Tried flyswatter and bdi. Feb 08 21:58:50 <_av500_> checked if the pinmux is still ok? Feb 08 21:59:03 <_av500_> and/or the cloks Feb 08 22:00:59 * mranostay drags prpplague in here Feb 08 22:01:17 * prpplague peeks into #beagle Feb 08 22:01:17 Shouldn't xloader take care of that? Feb 08 22:01:51 av500 hm did not find out how to emulate the swipe with the mouse Feb 08 22:01:54 'lo prpplague Feb 08 22:01:54 Kristina: what kind of jtag issue are you having? Feb 08 22:01:59 Shadyman: greetings Feb 08 22:02:08 prpplague: how well does the flyswatter work with the OMAP3530? Feb 08 22:02:15 prpplague: you aren't easy to drag btw Feb 08 22:02:28 prpplague: when I start beagleboard with any jtag debugger, uart stops working. Feb 08 22:02:35 i think i pulled out my back :P Feb 08 22:02:37 cbrake: both flyswatter and flyswatter2 work extremely well with 3530 Feb 08 22:02:42 prpplague: I tried bdi3000 and flyswatter2. Feb 08 22:02:42 prpplague: funny, customer was just asking me about JTAG for mfg checkout Feb 08 22:02:53 Kristina: patch for that went upstream Feb 08 22:02:55 Kristina: this is a know issue with the bootloader configuration Feb 08 22:02:56 Kristina: BDI should work really well as well Feb 08 22:03:04 prpplague: so I pop over hear, and you guys are talking about JTAG :-) Feb 08 22:03:09 Kristina: mdp submitted a bootloader fix ages ago Feb 08 22:03:13 mranostay: needs the same patch on BDI Feb 08 22:03:17 Kristina: i suspect you are using something every old Feb 08 22:03:21 probe independent Feb 08 22:03:35 cbrake: hehe Feb 08 22:03:37 prpplague: the xloader comment is the tip-off Feb 08 22:03:42 mdp: indeed Feb 08 22:03:49 re prpplague Feb 08 22:04:09 woglinde: hey hey! Feb 08 22:04:37 prpplague: can you do custom boundary scan type things -- wiggle pins, etc? Feb 08 22:04:49 Friday gift: gcl reponds to some panto dt overlay related patches Feb 08 22:05:06 <_av500_> cbrake: that sounds like bit banging! Feb 08 22:05:16 <_av500_> mdp: what patch is that? Feb 08 22:05:20 xo Feb 08 22:05:21 cbrake: flyswatter/2 is just hardware, you need some software to do whatever you need, in most cases openocd will do what you need Feb 08 22:05:22 ups Feb 08 22:05:29 so old xloader breaks uart? Feb 08 22:05:32 cbrake: however there are several other open packages that work as well Feb 08 22:05:41 woglinde: only if you halt via jtag Feb 08 22:05:43 cbrake: I use my FS2 to wiggle load an fpga Feb 08 22:05:52 mdp: which fpga? Feb 08 22:05:55 Apparently Angstrom's Narcissus image builder ( narcissus.angstrom-distribution.org ) is currently being moved, so it is indeed "down". Feb 08 22:06:00 spartan3 Feb 08 22:06:10 I submitted a patch to xc3sprog Feb 08 22:06:17 Shadyman we had that some hours ago Feb 08 22:06:18 for "full FS2 support!" Feb 08 22:06:19 prpplague: Can you link me to the patch? I'm curious now. Feb 08 22:06:23 mdp: neat Feb 08 22:06:53 woglinde: Ah. I just found out now :) Feb 08 22:06:59 <_av500_> prpplague: /me too Feb 08 22:07:25 hm I should test my fw2 on something Feb 08 22:07:25 av500: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/130997 Feb 08 22:08:00 <_av500_> Kristina: ^^^ Feb 08 22:08:07 <_av500_> clock, as I said :) Feb 08 22:08:12 _av500_, ^^^^ Feb 08 22:08:14 ;) Feb 08 22:08:18 mdp: ahh dandy Feb 08 22:08:39 uboot patch Feb 08 22:08:43 hm Feb 08 22:08:52 mdp: oh, you're fom TI?

Feb 08 22:09:38 <_av500_> he is Feb 08 22:09:51 Kristina umh you did not get the news? Feb 08 22:10:15 ya, TI laid off half of #beagle a little while back Feb 08 22:10:17 mdp: to the mailing list? Feb 08 22:10:34 <_av500_> Russ: no, half of #pandaboard Feb 08 22:10:44 no, all of pandaboard Feb 08 22:10:45 hehe Feb 08 22:10:47 <_av500_> right Feb 08 22:10:51 prpplague: some amount of vomit involved but I managed to use the sourceforge xc3sprog tracker mechanism: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3598066&group_id=170565&atid=854669 Feb 08 22:10:58 <_av500_> where is my severance package??? Feb 08 22:11:24 prpplague: it's hardly revolutionary, a typical one-liner ;) Feb 08 22:11:57 <_av500_> mdp: wo, that looks arcane Feb 08 22:11:59 <_av500_> wow* Feb 08 22:12:12 _av500_: all the pandaboard old stock you want Feb 08 22:12:52 mdp: yea, just wanted to know about it as we have had a few people ask Feb 08 22:13:08 oh cool..works great Feb 08 22:13:56 thought I mentioned it to you, but that was probably during the thick of OMAPageddon 2012 Feb 08 22:16:56 sciencefair:30, bbl Feb 08 22:35:44 later and have a good weekend guys.. . . Feb 08 22:54:04 good nite Feb 08 22:54:39 <_av500_> woglinde: no späti? Feb 08 22:56:02 no Feb 08 22:56:20 Where should I look to find logs of the changes from the last opkg upgrade with angstrom? Feb 08 22:56:20 maybee tomorrow I will get an augustiner Feb 08 22:56:34 spacecolonyone o.O Feb 08 22:56:43 there are no logs Feb 08 22:56:57 shoot Feb 08 22:57:10 or used script before sshing Feb 08 22:57:35 than the script log file logs on your host Feb 08 22:57:47 I'm seeing some very odd behavior and the only thing i "think" i changed was issuing opkg update;opkg upgrade Feb 08 22:58:03 I remember "core" something was in there Feb 08 22:58:17 blame your distribution Feb 08 22:58:21 so now really off Feb 08 22:58:45 <_av500_> why do people run opkg upgrade? Feb 08 22:58:45 and I was considering using opkg compre-versions Feb 08 22:59:00 woglinde: ? Feb 08 22:59:06 because it's there? Feb 08 22:59:16 _av500_: because I thought it was encouraged Feb 08 22:59:20 it's like the don't press me button Feb 08 22:59:22 _av500_: yeah - old packgaes should be good enough Feb 08 22:59:32 should I re bitbake it? Feb 08 22:59:35 packgaes? Feb 08 22:59:36 update is mandatory Feb 08 22:59:48 upgrade more often than not breaks your install Feb 08 23:00:19 no, redid the console Feb 08 23:00:40 <_av500_> I know what opkg upgrade does Feb 08 23:01:26 i don't :P Feb 08 23:01:41 <_av500_> still people always do it and then coplain here that it broke their system Feb 08 23:01:53 <_av500_> so I wonder why Feb 08 23:02:16 patch it to ask "are you sure? this will likely break your system" Feb 08 23:02:17 <_av500_> instead of concentrating on their actualy goal Feb 08 23:02:23 <_av500_> like blink some leds Feb 08 23:02:26 <_av500_> or detect some green Feb 08 23:02:32 <_av500_> they play distro wars Feb 08 23:02:45 what it won't do is upgrade your distribution, which some people think it will Feb 08 23:02:46 <_av500_> which is a fair goal in itself Feb 08 23:02:46 or add a mustache Feb 08 23:03:56 <_av500_> but this is not a desktop distro where thousands of poeple run the same config Feb 08 23:03:56 * emeb fires up his beagle just to read up on opkg commands Feb 08 23:04:34 <_av500_> but then, what do I know :) Feb 08 23:07:00 ok, have a beagle board xm rev c4. i used build root to build everything. I'm trying to figure out how to get output to the monitor. can anyone give me any ideas Feb 08 23:08:36 ok so _av500_ what is the recommended procedure. doing git pull on setup scripts and rebitbaking my image? Feb 08 23:09:07 <_av500_> or just use that image Feb 08 23:09:27 you shouldn't need to rebitbake, just re-deploy the rootfs Feb 08 23:09:44 Ok, well in situations where I built the image a while back and now for instance conman 1.1 and systemd 189 are out and incorpoated Feb 08 23:10:32 thurbad: that automatically grabs updated stuff? I must be missing something about how it all works. I thought I had the flow pretty down pat. Feb 08 23:10:34 beaglebone, y u no have iwconfig?? Feb 08 23:11:29 <_av500_> it has conmad Feb 08 23:11:30 oh, you want an updated distro? Feb 08 23:12:06 I'm on 2012.05 with the 3.2.28 kernel that I patched as part of my bitbake build Feb 08 23:13:08 when I built is was systemd v44 or some such and connman v0.79, which lack features I'd like and have bugs. I'd like to grab updated stuff and incorporate it is the manner least likely to break stuff Feb 08 23:14:37 schadenfreude: http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2013/02/my-dead-blackberry-10-a-eulogy.html Feb 08 23:14:38 I'm not opposed to getting a new kernel, especially if smart reflex has been patched in and is finally working Feb 08 23:14:44 there may be a different branch with a more recent version in that same repo, but I haven't kept up with all that in a while I'm afraid Feb 08 23:30:20 <_av500_> emeb: thx :) Feb 08 23:38:49 anyone know how to get output to the monitor from beagleboard xm? Feb 08 23:38:57 connect it first Feb 08 23:39:00 hmm i have two phytec omap4 dev platforms thta i was hope'n to sell, but no one seems interested, i wonder why.....hehe Feb 08 23:39:10 <_av500_> $5 Feb 08 23:39:19 prpplague: give me $5 and i'll take them Feb 08 23:39:19 mranostay: that's my line! Feb 08 23:39:23 it's connected. Feb 08 23:39:36 i used buildroot to build everything Feb 08 23:40:29 prpplague: selling vendor loan boards for beer^H^H^H^Hrum money?

Feb 08 23:44:04 mranostay: unlike the omap4 dev kits, my tv is useful, i want to keep that Feb 08 23:44:13 ithurbad: I don't see anything related to dss. is it omap_dss? Feb 08 23:44:41 same thing Feb 08 23:44:46 that might be my starting point. make it's being installed Feb 08 23:44:58 make sure it's installed Feb 08 23:47:22 _av500_: yw :) Feb 08 23:47:33 prpplague: bitter much? :) Feb 08 23:47:44 mranostay: some Feb 08 23:47:45 next thing to check would be your bootargs Feb 08 23:48:06 mranostay: but the funny thing is, i might have a job offer to support some omap4 and omap5 projects, hehe Feb 08 23:48:29 <_av500_> you can always work for eagleboard.org Feb 08 23:48:44 never burn those bridges. Feb 08 23:49:05 unless you hit the lotto Feb 08 23:49:10 I'd buy it if there was some hope of being able to get the omap4 chips going forward Feb 08 23:49:31 let the omap4 RIP Feb 08 23:49:48 <_av500_> get a jacinto Feb 08 23:50:09 we need a omap3 replacement solution at some point :/ Feb 08 23:50:38 omap5!!$#@!$!@!@#$!@ Feb 08 23:51:02 prpplague: anything is better than x86 support :) Feb 08 23:51:07 well all the performance tests have passed for the sdmux Feb 08 23:51:11 mranostay: indeed Feb 08 23:52:59 prpplague: intel must pay well to deal with that crap :) Feb 08 23:53:28 indeed Feb 08 23:53:40 mranostay: you can ask Dave Stewart at ELC Feb 08 23:54:48 * mranostay eyes davest Feb 08 23:55:55 * mranostay is in Makefile hell Feb 08 23:56:06 try scons Feb 08 23:56:09 * emeb ducks Feb 08 23:56:30 <_av500_> try COMPILE.BAT Feb 08 23:58:13 badass build system tech Feb 08 23:58:39 <_av500_> make sure you use recursive make files Feb 08 23:58:58 mranostay, badass rockstar Feb 08 23:59:43 whatever insanity you have, I've seen worse Feb 09 00:00:56 ah ha Feb 09 00:01:06 damn surprises in rowboat Feb 09 00:01:18 their U-boot is F'ed Feb 09 00:03:06 <_av500_> use fastboot Feb 09 00:03:14 port android! Feb 09 00:03:22 wouldn't have mattered if the same person did it Feb 09 00:03:23 <_av500_> run proper linux Feb 09 00:03:36 <_av500_> not that abomination Feb 09 00:03:36 they upped the USB power path limit to 1.3A in U-boot Feb 09 00:03:50 heh Feb 09 00:03:57 that seems high Feb 09 00:04:05 so when it boots up and draws enough power, entire system collaspses since the hub kills power Feb 09 00:04:18 console is powered that way so everything gets F'ed Feb 09 00:04:31 lower the power path limit and it actually works Feb 09 00:05:32 <_av500_> what draw so much power? Feb 09 00:05:35 <_av500_> draws Feb 09 00:06:19 i have a proper hub that clips at 500mA sharp Feb 09 00:07:53 <_av500_> either you need more than 500ma or not Feb 09 00:08:02 <_av500_> how do you change that in sw? Feb 09 00:11:08 magic Feb 09 00:12:19 never underestimate the power of a properly waved rubber chicken. Feb 09 00:31:26 mdp? know if the am335x can change its drive strength on the pinmux? Feb 09 00:36:36 .on GPIO? Feb 09 00:36:42 yes Feb 09 00:37:22 its only 6mA Feb 09 00:37:31 not much at all Feb 09 00:43:18 found it. nevermind Feb 09 01:25:46 wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee lcd works Feb 09 01:41:12 howdy folks Feb 09 02:29:37 Is http://us.feeds.angstrom-distribution.org still the correct path for US Angstrom packages? Feb 09 02:30:20 Trying to update my demo image, and neither that nor the general feeds. is working. Both time out, on my bone and on my host PC. Feb 09 02:31:16 They time out via IP address as well, so it is not a DNS thing, unless 140.211.169.179 is the wrong IP address. Feb 09 02:35:33 No, even out of my home network on my colo box in Southfield MI, those domains and IP addresses go nowhere. Feb 09 02:37:23 agmlego: I read earlier in chat they are moving it Feb 09 02:37:39 Ah, must have missed that. Feb 09 02:37:51 Thanks for the info, will keep an eye out for the new location. Feb 09 02:37:54 yeah I didn't see it except in passing. Someone couldn't find narcissus Feb 09 02:38:02 One day the DNS will resolve properly Feb 09 02:38:08 Heh. Feb 09 02:38:33 I guess the next thing then would be to find a power supply and try getting this debian netinstall image to boot to the installer. Feb 09 02:38:54 The boot process puts my hub into reset with that catrd... :-/ Feb 09 02:47:42 arrrrrrrrrrgggggggggg Feb 09 02:47:57 this pinmux code is fraught with errors **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Feb 09 02:59:57 2013
