**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Aug 11 02:59:58 2014 Aug 11 04:42:14 hello Aug 11 04:42:50 my beaglebone is not responding over putty (ssh) via window pc Aug 11 04:47:34 is the LED coming on? Aug 11 04:47:50 yes Aug 11 04:48:51 but now only power led is glowing Aug 11 04:49:02 hmmm Aug 11 04:49:16 is this a BBB or BBW? Aug 11 04:49:22 BBB Aug 11 04:49:41 do you have a debug serial cable? Aug 11 04:50:02 attached with 4D 4.3" LCD Cape Aug 11 04:50:06 If not, get a non flasher image onto a uSD card and try booting that Aug 11 04:50:14 oh...try removing the cape and see if it works Aug 11 04:50:20 ok Aug 11 04:50:23 1 min Aug 11 04:50:25 sorry, got to go. need to eat a late dinner. Aug 11 04:51:15 ok Aug 11 04:51:29 now cape is removed Aug 11 04:51:41 all other led were flashing Aug 11 04:58:22 hello Aug 11 04:59:00 my beaglebone Black is not communicating with my window PC Aug 11 05:02:00 earlier there's a new drive opens when i connect it with the usb cable Aug 11 05:02:29 but now there's no new drive as beaglebone Aug 11 05:02:48 nor connected to 192.168.7.2 Aug 11 05:03:45 yesterday i run a cmd opkg upgrage without using memory card and as it taking to much time so i pressed ctrl+c and moved out Aug 11 05:04:06 is it the issue, or how to reset it to previous state Aug 11 05:04:10 ?? Aug 11 05:45:35 I found the image builder for rebuilding the debian image for BBB, but i would like to modify the kernel, however i did not see any documentation on how change the kernal that the image builder is pointing at, is there documentation out there for something like that? Aug 11 06:00:05 ehammerv: look for the angstrom kernel workflow Aug 11 06:07:37 BBB not responding on SSH Aug 11 06:08:18 . Aug 11 06:09:11 saying "time out" Aug 11 06:15:26 Sonu: did th system boot completely? (use debug console on serial port ) Aug 11 06:17:59 Sonu: earlier you said that you did opkg upgrade and interrupted it. this most likely broke your system, you will need to reflash it. Aug 11 06:18:16 how to reflash it Aug 11 06:19:10 Sonu: see http://beagleboard.org/latest-images there are the images for download as well as instructions on how to use them. Aug 11 06:19:39 the emmc flasher images are set up to relash the internal memory. Aug 11 06:27:11 i downloaded the image "Angstrom Distribution (BeagleBone Black - 2GB eMMC) 2013-09-04 " Aug 11 06:27:47 but didnt get the steps to follow, for reflashing the BBB Aug 11 06:28:54 sonu: isn't there a "getting started" link right at the top of the page? Aug 11 06:29:13 sonu: you know, for handholding i usually chargd my engineering fees. Aug 11 06:34:02 did anybody managed to build qt5 with angstrom ? for beaglebone black Aug 11 06:45:16 sonu github.com/ungureanuvladvictor/BBBlfs Aug 11 06:52:12 hello Aug 11 06:56:13 foo bar wibble, trying to trigger a bot. Aug 11 06:56:32 :) Aug 11 07:14:27 saying something, to see what happens Aug 11 07:14:40 yeah, spam as expected Aug 11 09:07:58 hi , Aug 11 09:08:41 ok, so I wrote a simple epoll program in python and I printed out vaules on gpio which is connected to a water sensor Aug 11 09:09:00 does the linux epoll provide means of debounching? Aug 11 11:12:16 Anyone experienced with beaglesnes? Aug 11 11:12:51 Can't get the board to boot from the sd card Aug 11 11:25:42 seems like it doesn't start when I have an sd card inserted, it doesn't matter if it's something on it or not Aug 11 11:39:08 Think I found the reason why it didn't work, I used DD on the first partition.. so I used /dev/mmcblk0p1 instead of /dev/mmcblk0 Aug 11 13:02:48 tbr: sorry not to be around to op. still a need? Aug 11 13:03:56 jkridner: got freenode OPERs to help, reluctantly - 07:18:16-!- caaaaaaa [~tripp@90.174.5.82] has quit [K-Lined] Aug 11 13:04:21 :( Aug 11 13:04:52 freenode staff is not on the channel access list Aug 11 13:05:27 jkridner: might want to add them if you want to enable them to help with channel specific problems Aug 11 13:13:24 how do I do that? Aug 11 13:29:39 algorithm Aug 11 13:30:07 ... Aug 11 13:41:28 jkridner: https://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml mentions this Aug 11 14:05:01 hi guys is anyone here using the bbbio library by vegetableavenger on github? I am having some trouble getting around how they reference gpio pins and pwm pins Aug 11 15:13:13 KotH, LetoThe2nd: ah, you guys are freenode staff? Aug 11 15:13:34 tbr: thanks for the tip Aug 11 15:14:13 erm no they are not Aug 11 15:14:28 they are on the channel access list Aug 11 15:14:31 oh... guess someone else #op'd them. Aug 11 15:14:34 k Aug 11 15:14:58 anyway, I added freenode staff now. Aug 11 15:15:38 somebody == av500 or denix, since I hadn't given others the ability. Aug 11 15:15:55 good, that will allow them to address problems if they come up Aug 11 16:17:19 hello, I get this error while trying to use one of the pwm: Aug 11 16:17:22 [ 154.491997] ehrpwm 48304200.ehrpwm: Period value conflicts with channel 1 Aug 11 16:17:24 [ 154.499248] pwm_test bs_pwm_test_P8_19.19: pwm_config() failed Aug 11 16:17:37 n1 knows how to troubleshoot it? Aug 11 16:17:57 in fact I am trying to use 2 pwm Aug 11 16:18:16 trevize: there isn't a super-simple work-around right now.... Aug 11 16:18:23 :( Aug 11 16:18:34 what is causing it? Aug 11 16:18:56 the initialization of the PWM includes the update period.... Aug 11 16:19:21 and if it doesn't match the existing period of any PWM on the same controller, then you'll get this error when trying to do the initialization. Aug 11 16:19:27 hmm, how do I manually get the uio_pruss? Aug 11 16:19:30 you can use a different controller. Aug 11 16:19:42 I updated the kernel but it only compiled uio, not uio_pruss Aug 11 16:20:34 well I believe the period for both pwm is the same Aug 11 16:20:46 but I still got this error Aug 11 16:20:54 I'll re-check it Aug 11 16:21:16 btw whats the complex-work-around? Aug 11 17:14:51 btw whats the complex-work-around? Aug 11 17:18:55 vagrantc: http://blog.eciton.net/uefi/bbb_raw_sd_boot.html Aug 11 17:24:13 ... Aug 11 17:45:50 leiflindholm: thanks for the link! Aug 11 17:48:48 so booting in raw mode normally expects a kernel at a fixed offset ... Aug 11 19:46:22 Is feeding 5.22 VDC from my power supply enough to fry the 5v port and the board? Aug 11 22:52:42 Hello! Does anyone else have issues with USB hot-swapping on the Beaglebone Black? I've found some chatter about a USB driver on Angstrom, but I'm running Debian, and it was old forum post anyways. Aug 11 22:52:54 sorry if that gets asked on a daily basis Aug 11 22:53:11 hot swapping does tend to have issues Aug 11 22:53:25 unfortunately, you're not alone Aug 11 22:53:28 usb hotplug is a bit buggy on the bbb, yes - its a known issue wiht the driver, but its been heavily patched Aug 11 22:53:40 thank you vagrantc and veremit Aug 11 22:54:18 I'm running the Debian 7 image from 4-23-2014, any idea if it's patched in a newer image? Aug 11 22:54:38 I'd hate to lose my octoprint and cups setup, but would be worth it I guess to fix this Aug 11 23:05:45 don't think you're gonna see it get much better than it is Aug 11 23:38:55 http://pyserial.sourceforge.net/examples.html#miniterm Aug 11 23:38:59 erps Aug 11 23:55:48 hey all, i bought a moto lapdock on a whim and i seem to be having problems with the display Aug 11 23:55:54 (for my BBB) Aug 12 00:00:30 anyone ever tried anything similar? Aug 12 00:03:07 custom cables from specialcomp... work like this... https://specialcomp.com/beaglebone/22601_l.png Aug 12 00:06:52 maybe i need to cut the 5v in the usb cable? according to https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/beagleboard/Lapdock/beagleboard/P4bHq7Kqx9w/xfVA4qy3I64J Aug 12 00:07:03 pretty new to all of this Aug 12 00:13:16 do it only work with xorg running? or will it still display CLI shell? Aug 12 00:30:41 perhaps more relevant info http://beagleboard.org/project/Lapdock/ Aug 12 01:13:50 Jesperhead, can you ssh into the BBB and check the various logs found in /var/log? Aug 12 01:14:26 also, in the comments section of the last link you sent, someone mentions having to make modifications to their xorg.conf to provide resolution support Aug 12 01:14:37 AnomalousBit: I havent tried since I booted but give me a moment. I realize it's not very fair to only come here, as it may be possible the lapdock does not work Aug 12 01:14:52 but i am getting 0 response out of the display. not even backlight Aug 12 01:15:26 I would definitely check the xorg logs to make sure it's detecting a display then Aug 12 01:15:31 it may even spell it out for you Aug 12 01:17:03 will the laptop work only in an xorg env? I havent installed any desktop/windows managers. I was just hoping for basic CLI screen support Aug 12 01:17:07 lapdock* Aug 12 01:20:14 (im running arch-arm, not the standard distro Aug 12 01:20:17 ) Aug 12 01:21:50 yeah no xorg logs because no xorg installed Aug 12 01:21:59 I have no idea there, if I remember correctly there are ways to set the resolution by passing arguments to the kernel (the CLI resolution) Aug 12 01:22:25 you should look that up, as the comments from your link seemed to think the dock was VERY particular about the resolution Aug 12 01:22:54 hrm i see i see, ok. thank you very much for your input Aug 12 01:23:01 im not ready to consider this hosed yet Aug 12 01:24:00 no problem! hope you get it figured out Aug 12 01:54:37 http://pastebin.com/Z26UmrrT Aug 12 01:54:39 :( Aug 12 01:58:19 Jesperhead: what board are you using? Aug 12 01:58:22 bbb Aug 12 01:58:34 arch though Aug 12 01:58:40 that's not mali based graphics Aug 12 01:59:10 what's requiring mali? LXDE or the display? Aug 12 01:59:15 (im very new to this) Aug 12 01:59:58 Jesperhead, where did you get the lapdock Aug 12 02:00:01 whatever you're using for your XWindows manager Aug 12 02:00:08 amazon, seller seemed reputable Aug 12 02:00:33 lapdock 500 though, most write ups seem to be for the earlier model? 100? Aug 12 02:00:54 what's the difference between the two? (I haven't really looked) Aug 12 02:00:56 thurgood: yeah LXDE. my mistake. Aug 12 02:01:29 tawr: bigger i think is the main one. connection is relatively the same (micro hdmi next to micro usb) Aug 12 02:01:58 except that those connections are a part of a rubber wrap cable Aug 12 02:02:09 instead of embedded on the dock Aug 12 02:02:50 thurgood: whats a lightweight Xmanager supported by bbb? Aug 12 02:03:38 not sure, I don't use X on the beagle line Aug 12 02:04:09 yours may wok if you specify a different display driver Aug 12 02:04:21 work that is Aug 12 02:04:25 lspci | grep vga? Aug 12 02:05:23 I think generally you want an fb0 driver, not sure though Aug 12 02:07:33 my BBB comes in tomorrow, pretty excited Aug 12 02:07:43 i have a few projects I've been wanting to do for a long time Aug 12 02:11:57 yeah i kind of geeked out when I learned about the lapdock being a possibility. I am becoming familiar with Stumpwm and want to make a very basic desktop shell to run on top of it Aug 12 02:12:46 what is uEnv.txt Aug 12 02:17:50 http://ix.io/dRm theres my full xorg log **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Aug 12 02:59:58 2014
