Sep 21 03:36:42 <SekRanger> Um... Hello
Sep 21 04:22:05 <JohnInAlabama> HI - just got the beaglebone, connected it to the Linux PC via the supplied cable - I get a power LED but nothing else happens. Can anyone offer a suggestion? I have tried using a 5V power supply as well...
Sep 21 04:28:59 <JohnInAlabama> HI - just got the beaglebone, connected it to the Linux PC via the supplied cable - I get a power LED but nothing else happens. Can anyone offer a suggestion? I have tried using a 5V power supply as well...
Sep 21 04:29:42 <alan_o> JohnInAlabama: did you see this: http://beagleboard.org/Getting%20Started
Sep 21 04:30:11 <JohnInAlabama> Yes, I did.
Sep 21 04:31:07 <JohnInAlabama> says I should see the other leds flash within ten seconds. No joy.
Sep 21 04:31:49 <JohnInAlabama> Is it supposed to have a microSD card inserted to boot? I thought it would work from onboard memory
Sep 21 04:34:10 <alan_o> JohnInAlabama: try flashing it to the latest using the SD card then
Sep 21 04:34:45 <alan_o> Look at "update board with the latest software" on that page
Sep 21 04:36:57 <JohnInAlabama> I should use the "BeagleBone Black (eMMC flasher) image?
Sep 21 04:37:09 <alan_o> yes
Sep 21 04:37:13 <JohnInAlabama> tnx
Sep 21 05:27:56 <JohnInAlabama> Question - If I am reflashing eMMC with the SD card loaded with the BBB latest software image, will the board indicate anything while it is flashing? All I have is a steady blue power led... I am under the impression it may take 45 minutes...?
Sep 21 05:31:08 <JohnInAlabama> do any leds blink while the BBB is flashing eMMC?
Sep 21 05:33:56 <alan_o> JohnInAlabama: can't remember
Sep 21 05:34:31 <JohnInAlabama> OK, I will wait for an hour and see if anything happens. Tnx
Sep 21 05:34:44 <alan_o> np. Time for bed
Sep 21 06:01:21 <SekRanger> hello
Sep 21 06:06:38 <Vaizki> John, you should see lots of flashing in the leds From what i understand
Sep 21 06:07:13 <Vaizki> Only when it's done they should stay on
Sep 21 06:07:20 <Vaizki> Google it.

Sep 21 08:16:43 <mrpackethead> Ha'vn heard from mranstray for days
Sep 21 08:32:17 <nilking> hey thr I am using beagleboard-xM along with angstrom i wanna develop a Qt application on Target board itself will it b possible ?
Sep 21 08:32:47 <nilking> for that which additional package do i hv to take from the Narcissus website?
Sep 21 08:33:13 <Shawn> Hey guys, Good Morning, i am building angstrom for BBB, as a prequesite it needs eglibc-devel package, i m running fedora19 yum install says package not found, anyway around?
Sep 21 08:38:42 <Shawn> hey guys, to build BBB image i need eglibc-devel as per "http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom" on fedora19 when i do yum install eglibc-devel it says package not found, any help?
Sep 21 08:42:55 <Shawn> anyone? from where to get eglibc-devel?
Sep 21 08:56:07 <Shawn> eglibc-devel anyone?
Sep 21 08:56:32 <nilking> beagleboard-xm anybuddy?
Sep 21 11:46:49 <Kristina> Can someone help me with USB?
Sep 21 11:48:20 <moreinfo> if i write the new image to Beagle Black? does writing the image format the EMMC as well?
Sep 21 12:53:32 <nilking> angstrom along with beaglaboard -xm
Sep 21 13:16:27 <_av500_> Kristina: ask
Sep 21 13:16:29 <_av500_> dont ask to ask
Sep 21 13:16:45 <_av500_> Kristina: also, did you start 64 bit port?
Sep 21 13:17:00 <Kristina> I don't have any 64-bit hardware.
Sep 21 13:18:12 <Kristina> _av500_: Any suggestions?
Sep 21 13:18:20 <_av500_> 5s?
Sep 21 13:18:28 <Kristina> Proprietary :(
Sep 21 13:36:01 <_av500_> Kristina: so what is with usb?
Sep 21 13:36:37 <Kristina> _av500_: I think I worked it out.
Sep 21 13:37:11 <Kristina> HC registers are universal.
Sep 21 13:37:44 <Kristina> AppleUSBOHCI just needs you to map them.
Sep 21 14:58:47 <RypRap1> "afk" names are just spamming chat log..
Sep 21 15:08:48 <Guest31928> ดีครับ
Sep 21 15:31:11 <VirG> Hello People
Sep 21 15:38:50 <bmatusiak_> hey guys, anybody know if the "ENC28J60 Ethernet Module" works on beaglebone black..
Sep 21 15:39:19 <_av500_> what module?
Sep 21 15:39:30 <_av500_> ah
Sep 21 15:39:34 <_av500_> well, if you connect it
Sep 21 15:39:45 <_av500_> and hook up the driver correctly
Sep 21 15:40:00 <_av500_> its SPI
Sep 21 15:40:04 <_av500_> so its doable
Sep 21 15:40:23 <bmatusiak_> cool
Sep 21 15:41:03 <TehCaptain> uptime
Sep 21 15:41:08 <TehCaptain> wrong window :(
Sep 21 15:41:11 <bmatusiak_> lol
Sep 21 15:42:54 <tacon> lol
Sep 21 15:45:52 <alan_o> bmatusiak_: That driver is supported in the kernel
Sep 21 15:46:35 <alan_o> bmatusiak_: you'll need to connect it properly, make sure the driver is built into your kernel, then modify the device tree to tell the kernel where it is attached.
Sep 21 15:46:51 <bmatusiak_> i did "modprobe ENC28J60" on ubuntu-armhf-bone20 and no errors...  if that helps
Sep 21 15:47:02 <alan_o> ok
Sep 21 15:47:18 <alan_o> That's step 2. Steps 1 and 3 are harder :)
Sep 21 15:47:31 <bmatusiak_> im still on step 0
Sep 21 15:47:37 <bmatusiak_> waiting for shipping
Sep 21 15:47:55 <bmatusiak_> i orderd from china 4 days ago...
Sep 21 15:48:03 <bmatusiak_> $3.50
Sep 21 15:48:29 <bmatusiak_> but yea step 1 is wireing it up.. correct?
Sep 21 15:49:00 <bmatusiak_> alan_o *
Sep 21 15:49:06 <alan_o> bmatusiak_: yep
Sep 21 15:49:18 <bmatusiak_> step 3 is fixing up the dev tree?
Sep 21 15:49:29 <alan_o> yes
Sep 21 15:50:17 <bmatusiak_> https://www.olimex.com/Products/Modules/Ethernet/MOD-ENC28J60/resources/MOD-ENC28J60.pdf
Sep 21 15:50:31 <bmatusiak_> thats the srm for the modual
Sep 21 15:51:17 <bmatusiak_> page 8 has the pin discription
Sep 21 16:08:32 <SyNko> does the bbb have the CSI bus as the rpi for connecting webcam?
Sep 21 16:12:14 <_av500_> no
Sep 21 16:12:24 <_av500_> it did not aquire one over night
Sep 21 16:33:37 <TheFool> Does the BBB have a known compatibility list for usb wifi dongles?
Sep 21 16:36:17 <TheFool> Knowing for sure that I can just pop my $5 usb wifi stick in my Rasberry Pi is the only thing that has me contemplating buying another vs buying the BeagleBone Black.
Sep 21 16:51:44 <SpeedEvil> It's a linux ARM system.
Sep 21 16:52:00 <SpeedEvil> Any device compatible with the pi is compatible if you load the same driver
Sep 21 16:57:21 <TheFool> Great, thanks. I wasn't sure because of the different versions of linux they use. The Raspberry Pi so far has seemed to have all the drivers I've needed installed already.
Sep 21 16:58:52 <TheFool> SpeedEvil: Did you at one point frequent the Angstrom channel? Your nick looks really familiar to me.
Sep 21 16:59:29 <SpeedEvil> openmoko?
Sep 21 16:59:42 <SpeedEvil> electronics, physics
Sep 21 16:59:59 <SpeedEvil> maemo
Sep 21 17:46:48 <man123> can anyone confirm beaglebone is open source hardware?
Sep 21 17:48:57 <bmatusiak_> man123 yes - http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=BeagleBoneBlack#Hardware_Files
Sep 21 17:49:56 <man123> thanks bmatusiak
Sep 21 18:04:15 <gopi> can some pls with directory of board init file in linux kernel fo beaglebone? i.e which file /arch/arm/...boardxx.c is used by beaglebone?
Sep 21 18:04:24 <gopi> *help
Sep 21 18:24:10 <bmatusiak_> i have a idea for a cape
Sep 21 18:24:30 <bmatusiak_> mSATA-cape  ^_^
Sep 21 18:25:01 <bmatusiak_> kinda like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816104036
Sep 21 18:25:08 <KotH> why not just get a cubie or something like that?
Sep 21 18:26:11 <KotH> 'cause such a cape would cost a fortune (sata controller chips cost a lot in low volumes) and you would not get a high bandwith with the bbb anyways
Sep 21 18:26:44 <TehCaptain> i;d buy a cubie... if it ran real debian
Sep 21 18:26:57 <KotH> argh...
Sep 21 18:27:02 <bmatusiak_> http://beagleboard.org/CapeContest/entries/FPGA+LOGI-BONE/    uses sata
Sep 21 18:27:03 <KotH> it runs linux
Sep 21 18:27:12 <KotH> hence it can run any distro you want!
Sep 21 18:28:39 <KotH> bmatusiak_: then buy one
Sep 21 18:29:08 <bmatusiak_> there being tested...  not on market just yet :P
Sep 21 18:29:55 <KotH> bmatusiak_: but the bw problem still holds
Sep 21 18:30:49 <bmatusiak_> yea :/  could still be worth it VS storage
Sep 21 18:31:04 <bmatusiak_> like security pictures
Sep 21 18:31:09 <bmatusiak_> over 3 monts
Sep 21 18:33:00 <KotH> as i said, get a cubie
Sep 21 18:33:18 <KotH> it does the job, costs about the same as a bbb and is already available
Sep 21 18:35:47 <SpeedEvil> Isn't the fastest interface a USB-SATA converter?
Sep 21 18:36:05 <SpeedEvil> On the bbb
Sep 21 18:36:15 <KotH> dunno..
Sep 21 18:45:03 <N2TOH> the GPIO pins will run upto around 50Mhz from what I understand, so it might be possible to pump data at a faster rate then the USB
Sep 21 18:45:38 <N2TOH> USB has a rather high overhead cost due to the nature of the polled interface
Sep 21 18:46:13 <N2TOH> about the fasted device I have used was a 32GB thumb drive that returned about 40MB/s
Sep 21 18:57:34 <rob_w> N2TOH, u sure about that 50mhz ?
Sep 21 18:58:43 <N2TOH> not 100% sure but it's way faster then an ARDUINO
Sep 21 18:59:19 <N2TOH> I would have to confirm that from TIs' data sheet for the ARM chip
Sep 21 19:00:41 <Fatima> Anyone here have done image processing with beagleboardXm?
Sep 21 19:00:51 <rob_w> np .. just wondering .. i did some reasch once but i cant remember the outcome
Sep 21 19:01:44 <Fatima> how can i run my MATLAB code directly on beagleboard xm? is it possible?
Sep 21 19:01:56 <rob_w> and i cant see why the cubieboard is much better then a bbb
Sep 21 19:03:58 <Fatima> just tell me about beagle board
Sep 21 19:04:54 <Fatima> DOES ANYONE ACTUALLY ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS HERE???
Sep 21 19:14:12 * TehCaptain drinks a beer
Sep 21 19:16:50 <tacon> lol rage
Sep 21 20:12:06 <N2TOH> fatima, yeah some questions are answered you just have to be realistic about the responce times. as I have yet to meet anybody how gets paid to sit in IRC and respond to questions
Sep 21 20:13:33 <vvu|Log> + now it is weekend
Sep 21 20:42:34 <bbnewbie> Hello every one
Sep 21 20:43:20 <user123> Anyone got any suggestions for a black that no longer powers up?
Sep 21 20:43:52 <user123> I tried different power sources, and nothing
Sep 21 20:46:26 <bbnewbie> get multimeter ready
Sep 21 20:48:07 <user123> that is no problem. any idea where i should measure?
Sep 21 20:51:44 <bbnewbie> i just got a hold of the schematics
Sep 21 20:52:13 <bbnewbie> might find something worth checking
Sep 21 20:53:05 <bbnewbie> i suppose start with the ICs
Sep 21 20:53:10 <bbnewbie> see if any power is getting to them
Sep 21 20:53:23 <bbnewbie> and try to isolate source of problem
Sep 21 20:54:34 <bbnewbie> with some luck you might be able to find the source
Sep 21 20:58:37 <bbnewbie> i have a bb black here and seems TPS65217C is the power management ic
Sep 21 20:58:48 <bbnewbie> if you havve the same i would suggest startting from there
Sep 21 21:01:14 <bbnewbie> data sheet for power management IC http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tps65217c.pdf
Sep 21 21:10:13 <mrpackethead> what did you do to it
Sep 21 22:34:29 <sheldonw> I have tried to flash Debian to the emmc on a bbb and I get no bootup, no userled's upon restarting after what seems to be a successfully flash without the microSD flasher card in.  any idea's?
Sep 21 22:40:48 <ttt> oo
Sep 21 22:42:18 <ttt> It seems like not possible to modify PWMSS_CTRL register without <modprobe pwm_test>. Is there any body who knows why? I guess it is related with pinctrl.

Sep 22 00:34:15 <zanarama1> Hi, I can't seem to get any output from the pins on my beaglebone black board. Could somebody give me a hand?
Sep 22 00:37:47 <N2TOH> what sort of output?
Sep 22 01:51:16 <wanye23> hey
Sep 22 01:51:51 <jbdatko> I'm trying to cross compile an external kernel module for my BBB (3.8.13 Ubuntu raring) and when I tried to modprobe I get "exec format error."  Looking at modinfo, my vermagic is identical to other modules but it has only "3.8.13" not "3.8.13-bone21"
Sep 22 01:52:05 <wanye23> can somebody tell me if you can install ubunutu on the BBB without a connected screen?
Sep 22 01:52:28 <wanye23> because all tuts tell you you should have a screen mouse and keyboard attached
Sep 22 01:52:44 <jbdatko> I applied the patches from Robert Nelson's site for ubuntu 3.8.13 on the stock 3.8.13 kernel
Sep 22 01:53:25 <wanye23> does the ubuntu umage not has ssh enabled by default?
Sep 22 01:53:27 <jbdatko> and built the kernel and modules and I built my module (file says it's for arm), but it's not loading.  I'm suspecting this vermagic line.  I tired "-f" with no luck
Sep 22 01:54:05 <jbdatko> Anybody here built an external kernel module with success? ;)
Sep 22 01:55:22 <jbdatko> wanye23: If you are using R. Nelson's images it should work.  I used the eMMC flasher version a few times and ssh comes right up.
Sep 22 01:55:44 <wanye23> cool thanks
Sep 22 02:05:59 <vagrantc> anyone have recommendations on a git branch for 3.2 kernels and the bbblack?
Sep 22 02:56:08 <embeddedzhang> I got rowboat bb xm jb image run on bb xm with lcd7. everything else looks fine but the touch is not working. I did some research and found that someone has similar problems, (see e.g., http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/android/f/509/t/128893.aspx).  Can anyone be helpful regarding this?
