Aug 07 05:30:31 <symgryph> Has anyone gotten cryptodev compiled for the BBB with kernel 3.13?
Aug 07 05:30:56 <symgryph> I keep getting errors when trying to compile it? Using debian 4.6
Aug 07 05:30:58 <symgryph> 7.6
Aug 07 05:32:02 <symgryph> hwrng works, but I can't get cryptodev or ocf installed with openssl.
Aug 07 05:32:16 <symgryph> Need the crypto for mitm ssl stuff.
Aug 07 05:41:19 <BeagleNoob> I am trying to find out if the BBB meets the requirements for my application, where I would need to synchronize and control the delays among 8 IO’s. Would that be possible with the BBB? What would be the shortest time (controlled) between two channels? and the jitter? I have also read about PRU’s, would that be an option to obtain delays in the range of a few ns? Thanks!
Aug 07 05:43:15 <tbr> if, then it's going to be the PRU
Aug 07 07:20:23 <hewball> is there a reference anywhere of pins that have Edge ?
Aug 07 07:22:36 <hewball> oh found the answer for that.. Any GPIO can be used as an interrupt and is limited to two interrupts per GPIO Bank for a maximum of eight pins as interrupts
Aug 07 08:20:01 <Rotti> hi
Aug 07 12:00:25 <cityoflights2> ok, I am trying to use poll() /epoll() with a GPIO
Aug 07 14:11:29 <lricher> Anybody have information on the BlueSteel-Basic and BlueSteel-IT SBCs?
Aug 07 14:11:41 <lricher> I can't find a place to order or a release date
Aug 07 14:12:25 <LetoThe2nd> lricher: texans are not awake by now, in an hour or two i think there will be someone here who knows.
Aug 07 14:13:22 <tbr> didn't specialcomputing have them?
Aug 07 14:13:47 <tbr> and if you need them in large quantity, contact CCo
Aug 07 14:14:06 <lricher> Nothing at SpecialComp. I saw links to BoardZoo but they no longer list it
Aug 07 14:14:58 <lricher> Ok I will need large quantities for production. I just wanted to get a couple for testing/early development
Aug 07 14:14:59 <tbr> https://specialcomp.com/beaglebone/ - this disagrees, in stock and immediate shipping
Aug 07 14:16:23 <lricher> oh wow. When i go to specialcomp I do not see that option on their product page but your link works. I will check it out
Aug 07 14:16:31 <lricher> thank you
Aug 07 14:38:34 <Srik> I am sampling data an analog from the ADC pins. I am then processing the data. How can I now send the processed signals from the BBB to my PC.
Aug 07 14:39:33 <Srik> I am sampling analog signals from the ADC pins. I am then processing the data. How can I now send the processed signals from the BBB to my PC?
Aug 07 14:40:00 <LetoThe2nd> have your process that processes them send them out in whatever way you desire.
Aug 07 14:40:27 <LetoThe2nd> socket, email, writing to a network hosted file, providing a http interface...
Aug 07 14:43:11 <Srik> How it not be possible to stream the data through the USB interface to the PC? I apologize for these trivial questions. It has been just a week since I started using the BBB
Aug 07 14:43:44 <Srik> Is it not be possible to stream the data through the USB interface to the PC? I apologize for these trivial questions. It has been just a week since I started using the BBB
Aug 07 14:48:32 <LetoThe2nd> no need to repeat yourself
Aug 07 14:49:09 <LetoThe2nd> you can also set up a serial endpoint on the usb gadget and all that, but i'd call it not too trivial.
Aug 07 14:49:53 <LetoThe2nd> and creating a custom usb device is even more complex. so better use a simpler solution.. like i've named a few.
Aug 07 15:06:30 <DejanNenov> Hello all - can someone help me with a BBB eMMC / sdCard boot sequence issue? According to the docs, the BBB will boot from eMMC by default, unless the Boot button is held when power is applied. This is not the case however with the board I have in my hand L(
Aug 07 15:07:50 <robmurrer> DejanNenov: have you completely powered down the board?  I think that if the board is simply reset it will boot the last configuration.
Aug 07 15:08:17 <av500> yes, power cycle needed
Aug 07 15:08:21 <av500> also, good sdcard needed
Aug 07 15:08:30 <av500> otherwise the ROM code proceeds with emmc
Aug 07 15:12:32 <DejanNenov> Duh - found the issue on teh Google Groups - aparently I have removed the MLO file foremt eh eMMC
Aug 07 15:12:33 <DejanNenov> see here:

Aug 07 15:35:32 <Abhishek_> Srik: You could stream data into the /dev/ttyGS0 and open a normal serial connection with the host
Aug 07 15:36:24 <Abhishek_> Srik: but then you would have to disable the "getty" functionality of the port, which tries to open a serial terminal everytime you open that port
Aug 07 15:55:05 <rgm3> Do you expect that any more (updated) angstrom distribution images will ever be produced for BBB?
Aug 07 15:55:29 <rgm3> Or, because Debian is the default now, is the 2013-09-04 image likely to be the last?
Aug 07 15:58:58 <sobhan_> hello
Aug 07 15:59:08 <sobhan_> my name is sobhan
Aug 07 15:59:39 <sobhan_> i am new as new boy in beagle
Aug 07 16:00:13 <sobhan_> i need every body's help to come over and let me to start it from scratch.
Aug 07 16:12:27 <tbr> rgm3: you could always build a new image using narcissus
Aug 07 16:20:26 <rgm3> tbr:  If you’re referring to this URL mentioned in the title of the #angstrom channel, it’s been dead for months
Aug 07 16:20:27 <rgm3> http://amethyst.openembedded.net/~koen/narcissus/
Aug 07 16:22:32 <tbr> rgm3: no... http://narcissus.angstrom-distribution.org/
Aug 07 16:48:18 <samael> hello
Aug 07 16:51:42 <samael> on my bbb, hdparm -I (or -i) says HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Invalid argument. i understand that's due to the disk/controller not supporting the 'identify' command. is there some other way to access infos on the disk? (right now i'm interested in the write cache parameters)
Aug 07 17:29:05 <adi__> Hi
Aug 07 17:29:47 <adi__> I have a doubt related to BBB booting?
Aug 07 17:30:26 <adi__> Is anybody around here?
Aug 07 20:35:08 <milad> hell, is there anyway to use internal rtc of bbb or i should use anothor rtc module?
Aug 07 20:57:59 <radconjon> Is the support for the Leopard Imaging camera absent in Ubuntu 14.04 - Trusty - ?
Aug 07 21:48:27 <_av500_> was it ever included?
Aug 07 21:53:35 <thedigitaltexan> I currently use a commercial devise to monitor my four coolers at my business. It send me text and email messages when the temp rises about a pre set level. Can I do this with beagleboard black?  Thanks!
Aug 07 21:58:16 <woglinde> thedigitaltexan why not? just connect 4 temp sensors
Aug 07 21:58:55 <thedigitaltexan> but  how would i set it up to notify me
Aug 07 21:59:28 <woglinde> installing an smtpd?
Aug 07 21:59:50 <woglinde> and coding some software which reads the tempsensor and send emails?
Aug 07 22:00:14 <thedigitaltexan> The unit have now closes a relay and flashes a strobe and I get independent notifications on the cooler and I can log into the device and just check the temps
Aug 07 22:00:37 <woglinde> and of course you can connect a usb gsm/cmda stick for getting text messages
Aug 07 22:00:53 <thedigitaltexan> it is connected to the router
Aug 07 22:01:04 <woglinde> yes nad?
Aug 07 22:01:12 <thedigitaltexan> I don't have any programming exp
Aug 07 22:01:15 <woglinde> bbb has a ethernet device
Aug 07 22:01:37 <woglinde> if you have  don't have any programming exp, the bbb is nothing for you
Aug 07 22:02:00 <thedigitaltexan> I would pay to have this done
Aug 07 22:02:11 <woglinde> than find one
Aug 07 22:02:35 <thedigitaltexan> where would I look for programmer?
Aug 07 22:03:40 <woglinde> here is a nice site with some people
Aug 07 22:03:42 <woglinde> http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Linux_Consultants_and_Commercial_Linux_Providers
Aug 07 22:03:48 <thedigitaltexan> thanks
Aug 07 22:04:21 <woglinde> hm okay
Aug 07 22:04:28 <woglinde> most are more hw people
Aug 07 22:05:37 <thedigitaltexan> what is hw?
Aug 07 22:05:44 <woglinde> hardware
Aug 07 22:06:01 <woglinde> but they they should provide something usefull for your simple usecase too
Aug 07 22:06:32 <woglinde> time for bed
Aug 07 22:06:33 <woglinde> gn
Aug 07 22:06:55 <thedigitaltexan> thanks!!!!!
Aug 07 22:07:06 <thedigitaltexan> here is whttp://www.controlbyweb.com/temperature/hat I use now
Aug 07 22:08:50 <woglinde> why do you want to switch?
Aug 07 22:08:52 <thedigitaltexan> http://www.controlbyweb.com/temperature/
Aug 07 22:09:41 <woglinde> bb with 4 temp sensors and programming the stuff will be more pricy
Aug 07 22:09:45 <thedigitaltexan> I want to come out with y own unit
Aug 07 22:10:02 <woglinde> so you have a buiness idea?
Aug 07 22:10:08 <thedigitaltexan> ya i figured it would cost ore
Aug 07 22:10:24 <woglinde> okay
Aug 07 22:10:29 <woglinde> anyway I need sleep
Aug 07 22:10:30 <woglinde> gn
Aug 07 22:10:46 <thedigitaltexan> I has sold and installed 50 of the units
Aug 07 22:10:52 <thedigitaltexan> night
Aug 07 22:10:55 <thedigitaltexan> thanks
Aug 07 22:14:17 <thedigitaltexan> bye board....
Aug 07 22:17:12 <viccuad> hi guys, how much the beaglebone black is FOSS? thanks in advance
Aug 07 22:18:11 <jkridner> viccuad: the design is open hardware with all the parts available through distributors in quantity 1. The software is Debian. The bootloader is open source. The 3D graphics requires a closed source blob.
Aug 07 22:18:41 <viccuad> jkridner: many thanks, quite comprehensive!
Aug 07 22:22:20 <viccuad> another more question, sorry: does the beaglebone black have a thermal reader chip or something that can be used as a random number generator?
Aug 07 22:23:13 <ds2> I wonder what the distribution is for the LSB on the ADC
Aug 07 22:52:23 <jkridner> viccuad: there's random number generation hardware: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Cryptography_Users_Guide#Using_the_TRNG_Hardware_Accelerator
Aug 07 22:53:35 <viccuad> jkridner: thanks
Aug 08 00:53:52 <gu> I am having problem with a LCD 16x2. Have anyone else had similar problems
Aug 08 02:04:19 <edub> I've never done a hardware project before, but I was thinking about doing one as a hobby to retrofit my skeeball lane to use light sensors to detect the balls going into the holes and registering on the computer instead of the spring switches it currently uses updating the display. Is the BeagleBone Black (or whatever model) a good choice for a first timer to do a project like this?
