Dec 15 03:26:39 <SuperLutin> Hi
Dec 15 04:47:52 <BassBeagle> m
Dec 15 12:55:09 <flughafen> it's a little unclear how many analog and digital io pins there are on the bblack
Dec 15 13:13:41 <flughafen> is the beaglebone sort of the mix between all the gpio of a arduino and the power of the rpi?
Dec 15 13:22:10 <SuperLutin> yes
Dec 15 13:25:26 <Crofton|work> except is has a far more capable procesor
Dec 15 13:29:04 <SuperLutin> and all software and hardware are open sources
Dec 15 13:56:35 <harryh> I am looking for H.264 support.  The Raspberry Pi's GPU supports it.  How does Beaglebone Black compare?
Dec 15 13:58:19 <_av500_> no
Dec 15 13:58:30 <_av500_> there is no HW video decoder
Dec 15 13:58:41 <_av500_> if you need HD video, BBB is not for you
Dec 15 14:14:49 <harryh> Thank you @_av500_  !
Dec 15 15:54:19 <MacLover> is the bbb in stock anywhere
Dec 15 16:06:38 <mrpackethead> MacLover, i have them in stock. they are $699 + shipping.
Dec 15 16:23:14 <MacLover> any here?
Dec 15 16:29:20 <mmattice> several
Dec 15 16:31:33 <flughafen> is anybody using a usb camera and opencv with the black?
Dec 15 16:35:43 <MacLover> no
Dec 15 16:35:56 <MacLover> but i have used a network camera with opencv and bb white
Dec 15 16:36:23 <flughafen> do you need to use the camera cape to get decent performance?
Dec 15 16:36:28 <MacLover> is there any place that has the bbb in stock?
Dec 15 16:36:46 <MacLover> no i don't use the camera cape to get decent performance
Dec 15 16:37:10 <MacLover> with a static image I can proccess is in 1.2-1.3ms
Dec 15 16:37:47 <MacLover> grabbing from the camera mjpeg stream i can proccess and image in about 1.5-1.8ms
Dec 15 16:38:04 <MacLover> an*
Dec 15 16:38:45 <MacLover> flughafen where did you buy your bbb
Dec 15 16:39:47 <MacLover> .....
Dec 15 16:39:58 <flughafen> MacLover: i didn't
Dec 15 16:40:17 <MacLover> flughafen: Do what?
Dec 15 16:40:26 <flughafen> I am thinking of my next project, i have a couple of arduinos, an rpi,
Dec 15 16:40:34 <flughafen> i dont have an bbb
Dec 15 16:40:38 <MacLover> oh
Dec 15 16:40:49 <flughafen> i'm debating on if the bbb is for me
Dec 15 16:41:07 <MacLover> anybody have expereince with SPI using this display
Dec 15 16:41:22 <MacLover> http://www.sainsmart.com/sainsmart-3-2-tft-lcd-display-touch-panel-pcb-adapter-sd-slot-for-arduino-2560.html
Dec 15 16:41:38 <MacLover> I need the bbb and that display
Dec 15 16:41:52 <MacLover> not sure how im going to interface with it but ill find a way
Dec 15 16:41:57 <flughafen> i'd like to do something with opencv/face detection, wireless, display, touch screen, and sensors and wha tnot
Dec 15 16:42:22 <MacLover> flughafen: I have some vision code that runs on openCV that detects FRC targets
Dec 15 16:42:45 <MacLover> but it only works when there is a light ring around the camera
Dec 15 16:42:51 <MacLover> a blue light ring
Dec 15 16:43:19 <MacLover> then it gets angle to shoot, distance and rotation
Dec 15 16:43:20 <flughafen> why ?
Dec 15 16:43:31 <MacLover> why what?
Dec 15 16:43:36 <flughafen> why blue llight ring
Dec 15 16:43:46 <MacLover> because on the target there is reflective tape
Dec 15 16:44:06 <MacLover> so i use the light ring so I can filter out any other objects that may be considered targets to my program
Dec 15 16:44:17 <MacLover> here ill show you a pic
Dec 15 16:44:24 <MacLover> *goes to github*

Dec 15 18:15:22 <Benji_> I'm having trouble using PWM on the BBB with Ubuntu installed - It doesn't seem to respond by using Adafurit_BBIO.PWM, and some filies are missing in the linix directories (/sys/devices/ocp.2/pwm_test_P8_13.14)
Dec 15 18:15:48 <Benji_> Has anyone else run into this problem?
Dec 15 20:05:08 <nooblar> Hi all, I am using ubuntu kernel 3.8.13-bone20 and just upgraded my kernel via Robert Nelson suggestion to 3.8.13-bone28 to be able to use PWM.  However, when I try and load the driver for pwm, ie modprobe pam_test, I get:  FATAL:  Module pwm_test.ko is not found error.  I have read that htis might be because I dont have the correct dependencies.  Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
Dec 15 20:20:26 <baggy_> hi
Dec 15 20:20:34 <baggy_> Hi there

Dec 15 20:22:15 <sellout-> baggy_: http://www.logicsupply.com/components/touchscreen-displays/4dcape-43t/
Dec 15 20:33:58 <nooblar> Has anyone tried to enable pwm on ubuntu bone28 using modprobe pam_test?
Dec 15 20:34:08 <nooblar> and have any advice to share?
Dec 15 20:58:24 <MacLover> any body here?
Dec 15 21:00:27 <MacLover> ...........
Dec 15 21:01:40 <aurelien> MacLover: yes, but you should better ask your question, or maybe asking if someone is alive is the question??
Dec 15 22:03:15 <vvu|Log> anybody did a VPN through a BBB ?
Dec 15 22:57:42 <nooblar> Anyone using ubuntu bone20 image having trouble wwith PWM out there?
Dec 15 23:07:47 <ZiNC> Hey.

Dec 15 23:43:43 <fedlap> hi everyone! is it possible to set up a BBB to always boot from the sd card?
Dec 15 23:44:28 <_av500_> yes
Dec 15 23:44:34 <_av500_> kill MLO on the emmc
Dec 15 23:44:38 <_av500_> and it will boot from sd
Dec 15 23:44:46 <fedlap> how do i do that? :)
Dec 15 23:44:58 <_av500_> log in
Dec 15 23:45:03 <_av500_> find the boot partition
Dec 15 23:45:05 <_av500_> rm MLO
Dec 15 23:45:19 <fedlap> ok, ty!
Dec 15 23:45:23 <_av500_> this one might actuayll get exported to your PC
Dec 15 23:45:32 <_av500_> so even easier to delete
