Jun 02 04:29:47 <zumba_ad_> my beagle friends :D check out my proof of concept for monitoring my home security. Beaglebone is not shown though but it's the heart of this project. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqy2UibmEgo
Jun 02 04:39:16 <av500> zumba_ad_: I like how I can enable the sprinkler while you sleep
Jun 02 04:39:27 <av500> no need for alarm clock
Jun 02 04:39:44 <zumba_ad_> it's possible because I have already rules that is coded in my elk device
Jun 02 04:40:07 <zumba_ad_> it's actually on one of my youtubes too
Jun 02 06:48:54 <Thiru> hi All
Jun 02 06:49:20 <Thiru> I wanted know some info about eMMC flash
Jun 02 06:49:43 <Thiru> i'm using beagle bone black for my learning
Jun 02 06:50:22 <Thiru> I have tried to partition emmc into multiple partition, its successfull
Jun 02 06:50:58 <Thiru> now im trying to make write protect of some partitions but unable to do it
Jun 02 06:52:10 <Thiru> is any one trying the same and got any solution?
Jun 02 12:49:55 <mjgardes> put ro in the mount options in fstab?
Jun 02 14:26:45 <overrider> Hi there. I really need a 3.5mm audio connector, and i don't want to use a HDMI to Audio port adapter. Can i solder the three wires from one end of my audio cable somewhere on the back of the board?
Jun 02 14:27:39 <mjgardes> https://www.raspberrypi.org/
Jun 02 14:27:39 <overrider> Pretty much the only thing preventing me from using Beagle Bone Black is the lack of the 3.5mm Audio Jack.
Jun 02 14:27:40 <LetoThe2nd> overrider: nope, because there is no DAC there that you could use.
Jun 02 14:28:07 <overrider> mjgardes: Yeah thats what i am using. Tons of them.
Jun 02 14:28:37 <mjgardes> sounds like the beaglebone is not the right tool then
Jun 02 14:28:37 <overrider> LetoThe2nd: ok thank you. So its not just a matter of desoldering and abusing the HDMI connector
Jun 02 14:28:45 <LetoThe2nd> overrider: exactly.
Jun 02 14:29:38 <overrider> mjgardes: A shame. Really like the extra UARTs and so on. Onboard storage. Maybe i end up finding a nice and simple adapter after all
Jun 02 14:48:18 <zumba_addict> i'm not sure if I posted it here last night, I forgot. I used beaglebone for this project :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqy2UibmEgo  my bbb is connected to the serial device via usb-to-serial
Jun 02 14:59:08 <googcheng> does BBB debian20140423 support a usb hub with two wireless adapters?
Jun 02 15:14:04 <woglinde> googcheng musb will crash the usb stack after some time
Jun 02 15:23:36 <Abhishek_> overrider: Why not use a USB sound card instead?
Jun 02 15:25:57 <overrider> Abhishek_: Also a good idea - thanks. The Audio Cape i
Jun 02 15:26:19 <overrider> guess would be a another idea. USB soundcard has plenty choices, like it.
Jun 02 15:26:21 <Abhishek_> indeed
Jun 02 15:26:51 <Abhishek_> sure
Jun 02 15:28:00 <Abhishek_> When the BeagleBone is powered via a 5V adapter, I connect the USB cable and then remove the adapter, and my BeagleBone Black powers down. Is this expected behavior?
Jun 02 15:28:08 <Abhishek_> *Beaglebone black
Jun 02 15:29:37 <Zorgon> what about the other way around?
Jun 02 15:29:58 <Zorgon> power it via USB and then connect 5V adapter and disconnect USB
Jun 02 15:34:33 <thurgood_> if you power it with a barrel it expects power to remain from the barrel, are you experiencing something different?
Jun 02 15:35:24 <Abhishek_> It says "power button pressed", powering down when I remove the barrel with USB connected
Jun 02 15:36:49 <Abhishek_> Zorgon: the otherway round it remains powered on
Jun 02 15:43:10 <bbNube> Question: Why is it that my new bbb seems caught in a boot loop when I boot it on power and ethernet only, without a connection to my pc?
Jun 02 15:57:55 <bbbNube> Why is it that when I try to boot my new bbb with the power cord only, my bbb seems stuck in a boot loop?
Jun 02 16:02:32 <bbbNube> does anyone have a minute to spare to answer my question?
Jun 02 16:02:39 <woglinde> bbbNube connect a serial console adapter abt see whats happen
Jun 02 16:02:57 <woglinde> s/abt/and
Jun 02 16:04:06 <bbbNube> That is the issue, it is the only way that it comes up. I connect it to my pc with a usb cable
Jun 02 16:04:36 <bbbNube> What is a serical console adaptor
Jun 02 16:04:56 <bbbNube> s/serical/serial
Jun 02 16:05:20 <thurgood_> ftdi-usb cable
Jun 02 16:05:29 <weezelding> it allows you to see the boot procedure and logging into a box, for example
Jun 02 16:06:05 <bbbNube> ah,  good.  I think I can go on my way now :)
Jun 02 16:08:16 <woglinde> thurgood_ ftdi-usb like
Jun 02 16:08:23 <woglinde> actual it only has to support 3,3 power
Jun 02 16:08:30 <woglinde> and might have a diffrent chipset
Jun 02 16:13:44 <weezelding> well, fingers crossed
Jun 02 17:03:25 <zeeshan> is there a SSR cape for the bbb
Jun 02 17:38:20 <weezelding> could help if you would open the term SSR
Jun 02 17:38:29 <weezelding> s/would/will/
Jun 02 17:40:27 <agmlego|skynet> I was assuming it meant SuperSonic Roadster.
Jun 02 17:44:29 <arm> hi
Jun 02 18:13:59 <jbvador> Hi nyboy know heo flash my actual debian custom distro in my BBB sd card to emcc ?
Jun 02 18:14:28 <jbvador> anybody sorry..
Jun 02 18:14:51 <_av500_> have a look at the debian flasher images
Jun 02 18:14:56 <_av500_> do it like that
Jun 02 18:15:40 <jbvador> noo is a special tools ? i look into the net bet you find all procedure to flash a new image to emcc or backup the emcc
Jun 02 18:18:31 <thurgood_> what specifically are you trying to do, just get the rootfs copied from SD to EMMC, or something different?
Jun 02 18:20:03 <jbvador> i ave to partition on my system into the sd one is boot and other is system ! i just want to copied it in emcc to use it like a make withe partimage.
Jun 02 18:22:15 <thurgood_> I've always seen EMMC set up slightly differently than an SD would be partitioned
Jun 02 18:23:01 <jbvador> Ok bet is it possible to create a image file withe information form my sd card ?
Jun 02 18:23:57 <thurgood_> you can create an image of the rootfs with dd if you specify the partition rather than the device as a whole (in linux or mac)
Jun 02 18:25:30 <jbvador> ok bet as you an example dd=/dev/dev/mmcblk0p2 of=/test.img ??
Jun 02 18:25:50 <thurgood_> close
Jun 02 18:26:56 <thurgood_> dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p2 of=/test/img bs=xxxx
Jun 02 18:27:24 <thurgood_> would probably get you a little further assuming /dev/mmcblk0 is your device
Jun 02 18:28:06 <thurgood_> and bs would be your block size, default bs can take forever as it is fairly small
Jun 02 18:28:07 <jbvador> Tank you i look it and try..
Jun 02 18:29:03 <weezelding> sorry to spoil all the fun, but you can use bs=1M, for example
Jun 02 18:29:28 <thurgood_> err /test.img not /test/img
Jun 02 18:29:52 <jbvador> ok i look it tank you
Jun 02 18:30:04 <thurgood_> depens on the version of dd what suffixes you can use
Jun 02 18:30:21 <thurgood_> OSX is particularly picky for instance
Jun 02 18:30:45 <thurgood_> but yes 1M is probably a good size
Jun 02 18:30:50 <agmlego|skynet> OSX largely considered harmful.
Jun 02 18:30:57 <thurgood_> :)
Jun 02 18:31:39 <thurgood_> fair enough, it's not my *nix of choice either but I some people have it and don't want to run VMs
Jun 02 18:34:20 <James_Johnson> OS zealots aside, I’ve never had problems with specifying bs=1M or whatever on macos
Jun 02 18:34:36 <James_Johnson> Or you can just use dcfldd which has all the defaults set for disk imaging
Jun 02 18:53:24 <Tigerpilot> Hello anyone
Jun 02 18:54:26 <agmlego|skynet> anyone is not here.
Jun 02 18:54:46 <Tigerpilot> I have a BBBlack rev C that I am trying to enable the I2C2 bus, with no success.  I copied the dts source to do this and compiled it, added the firmwarde and slots.
Jun 02 18:55:20 <Tigerpilot> I am monitoring the pins 19 and 20 with s scope, no clocks.
Jun 02 18:57:11 <Tigerpilot> Given that BB has only i2c bus 0 and1, are all rerences in the .dts supposed to b to i2C1 ?
Jun 02 19:01:44 <Tigerpilot> @calculus are you a BB expert?
Jun 02 19:02:31 <agmlego|skynet> Tigerpilot: Please to be reading the topic, and the links therein.
Jun 02 19:03:44 <Tigerpilot> Sorry, new to this.
Jun 02 19:03:59 <agmlego|skynet> It is OK, that is why there are helpful links in the topic.
Jun 02 19:04:33 <Tigerpilot> Please - where do i find the links?
Jun 02 19:05:00 <agmlego|skynet> /topic
Jun 02 19:07:17 <Tigerpilot> where is /topic?
Jun 02 19:07:46 <agmlego|skynet> Tigerpilot: Literally type '/topic' into your client's text box, and hit the Enter or Return key.
Jun 02 19:07:59 <agmlego|skynet> Without the quote marks.
Jun 02 19:08:07 <Tigerpilot> ok.  thx
Jun 02 19:09:44 <Tigerpilot> it keeps saying I'm not a channel opertor
Jun 02 19:09:55 <agmlego|skynet> Tigerpilot: What client are you using?
Jun 02 19:10:13 <Tigerpilot> im on the web chat
Jun 02 19:10:25 <agmlego|skynet> Which web chat?
Jun 02 19:10:42 <Tigerpilot> This http://beagleboard.org/Community/Live%20Chat
Jun 02 19:14:05 <weezelding> topic: http://beagleboard.org/chat has a guide on how to ask questions and links to the logs

Jun 02 19:44:37 <Matthias_> Hi
Jun 02 21:16:51 <bbbNubee> just purchase a bbb. The board works fine when connected to my pc but falls in some sort of boot loop when I connect it to the power pack and disconnect the pc
Jun 02 21:17:37 <av500> what pack?
Jun 02 21:17:38 <bbbNubee> I came here this morning and asked and was told to look at what happens on the tty console when I boot it either way.  I cannot tell the difference between the boot logs
Jun 02 21:18:13 <bbbNubee> it is a 2A power supply with a connection to the power plug of the bbb
Jun 02 21:19:33 <av500> so it randomly reboots?
Jun 02 21:19:58 <bbbNubee> It boots up to the login prompt then reboots by itself
Jun 02 21:21:12 <rcn-ee> jkridner, cape-universal overlay 'almost' works on 4.1.x's capemgr... however the pin "state" handle isn't created... so i have a custom *.dtb for cape-universal. (had to patch config-pin..)
Jun 02 21:22:11 <bbbNubee> when I connect it to the pc, it boots up to the prompt and waits for a connection.
Jun 02 21:23:38 <ds2> what kind of external power supply are you using?
Jun 02 21:24:36 <bbbNubee> It is an ASUS 2A power supply I got from eleduino
Jun 02 21:25:04 <ds2> how many volts is it measuring?
Jun 02 21:26:22 <bbbNubee> Dont' know, I would need to get my meter out to tell you that.  I swapped it with another ps, the one I use for my tablet and I see the same problem
Jun 02 21:26:52 <av500> where is it connected?
Jun 02 21:27:17 <bbbNubee> At the end of an extension cord where I connect my phone
Jun 02 21:27:55 <ds2> uh
Jun 02 21:28:03 <ds2> what kind of connector is on the power supply?
Jun 02 21:29:18 <bbbNubee> I connecte the ps it in a wall outlet and it does the same thing
Jun 02 21:29:41 <ds2> is the power supply connector a miniUSB or a barrel type?
Jun 02 21:29:46 <bbbNubee> Standard 110VAC connector on one side and a usb socket on the other
Jun 02 21:30:00 <ds2> what is on the end that goes to the BBB
Jun 02 21:30:13 <av500> micro usb I guess
Jun 02 21:30:16 <bbbNubee> the end that goes to the bbb is a barel
Jun 02 21:30:20 <av500> ah
Jun 02 21:30:24 <bbbNubee> not microusb
Jun 02 21:30:37 <bbbNubee> it is a standard stick type male
Jun 02 21:32:36 <ds2> does the power LED flicker or do anything odd?
Jun 02 21:33:54 <bbbNubee> the power led is continuous, the heartbeat comes up everything looks ok then the power led stays on, all the other lights go out and the process starts all over agin
Jun 02 21:34:02 <bbbNubee> s/agin/again
Jun 02 21:35:20 <bbbNubee> correction, the power led does go out when all the lights go out but it stays on until it restarts again.  It looks to me that the box is getting reset by the firmware
Jun 02 21:36:02 <bbbNubee> I say that because when I look at the console, the last thing I see is the login prompt
Jun 02 21:37:21 <ds2> you have the USB to serial cable?
Jun 02 21:37:28 <bbbNubee> yep
Jun 02 21:37:49 <ds2> can you grab a full cycle (power on - boot - reboot) and put it on paste bin?
Jun 02 21:38:33 <bbbNubee> Sure, I need to read up on screen to figure out how to get a cut and paste. I will be happy to do that.  It might take me a few minutes
Jun 02 21:39:14 <bbbNubee> ds2-> will you be able to stick around a few minutes?
Jun 02 21:39:23 <ds2> JP1yes
Jun 02 21:39:24 <ds2> yes
Jun 02 21:39:34 <bbbNubee> cool, let me get to work then
Jun 02 21:40:01 <ds2> I might respond immediately but I will be around
Jun 02 21:50:49 <bbbNubee> Hate to ask but how do I use pastbin?
Jun 02 21:52:15 <rcn-ee> bbbNubee, you go to: http://pastebin.com/ copy your text, click submit..
Jun 02 21:52:20 <rcn-ee> then pass us the 'url'...
Jun 02 21:55:11 <ds2> just goto pastebin.com
Jun 02 21:55:34 <ds2> should be self explanatory
Jun 02 21:55:44 <bbbNubee> http://pastebin.com/xAjpa5dm
Jun 02 21:56:05 <bbbNubee> Thanks, it took me a minute to figure out how to get the url for the paste
Jun 02 21:57:04 <ds2> hmmm
Jun 02 21:57:11 <ds2> rcn-ee: when did we enable the watch dog?
Jun 02 21:57:37 <bbbNubee> don't know but it comes up on a pc-connected boot as well
Jun 02 21:57:55 <ds2> where did this image come from?
Jun 02 21:58:18 <bbbNubee> The answer is I don't know.  The image came off of the link provided on beaglebone.org
Jun 02 21:58:32 <ds2> so this image was not shipped with the board?
Jun 02 21:58:38 <rcn-ee> that's the new default image.. beagleboard.org/latset...
Jun 02 21:58:46 <bbbNubee> I was careful not to take one in test
Jun 02 21:59:03 <ds2> rcn-ee: image looks fubared to me
Jun 02 21:59:30 <bbbNubee> yes, this is the latest.  The instructions from the beagleboard org say that the image will need to updated to the latest since they ship boards with an image that is one year old
Jun 02 21:59:53 * ds2 slams head on table
Jun 02 22:00:25 <ds2> I'd suggest trying a known good image
Jun 02 22:00:26 <bbbNubee> yeah, I know....
Jun 02 22:00:46 <bbbNubee> what would you recommend?
Jun 02 22:01:15 <ds2> bb
Jun 02 22:01:24 <rcn-ee> bbbNubee, grab the latest snapshot from sunday: http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#Debian_Image_Testing_Snapshots
Jun 02 22:02:56 <bbbNubee> rcn-ee-> ok, i will look at it.   Waiting to see what ds2 brings back
Jun 02 22:03:11 <bbbNubee> rcn-ee-> do you use it?
Jun 02 22:03:27 <rcn-ee> have been today.. ( i built it..)
Jun 02 22:03:39 <bbbNubee> hehe oops!
Jun 02 22:03:53 <rcn-ee> the 3-01-2015 image you currently using is the one we sent off to circuitco for the next batch..  it's odd your seeing a reboot...
Jun 02 22:04:10 <bbbNubee> how bullet proof are these test snapshots.  I am not familiar with the releas mode for bb
Jun 02 22:05:10 <rcn-ee> bbbNubee, it's based off Debian 8 (which is now released), the images contain all the fixes from the prior week..  it's sudo rolling release snapshot..
Jun 02 22:05:11 <bbbNubee> If they don't test the power plug, they wont see the problem
Jun 02 22:05:46 <rcn-ee> oh they test everything... every board from circuitco goes thru a 24 hour burn in plus a functionality test with every pheriperal..
Jun 02 22:06:44 <bbbNubee> got it.  They will cath it if it's a problem.  Is there a way to look at minor revs on the boards?  Maybe I got shipped an odd board
Jun 02 22:07:14 <bbbNubee> Don't know if they even do that on these
Jun 02 22:07:45 <rcn-ee> the minor rev would be on the sticker...
Jun 02 22:09:46 <bbbNubee> top or bottom number?
Jun 02 22:10:43 <rcn-ee> the on that either starts with: A... B... or C....
Jun 02 22:12:27 <bbbNubee> XA100029 on the bottom, EM-400524 on the top
Jun 02 22:14:31 <bbbNubee> hehe  bye bye rcn-ee
Jun 02 22:14:42 <bbbNubee> ds2?
Jun 02 22:15:20 <bbbNubee> bye bye everyone!
Jun 02 22:20:54 <jkridner> rcn-ee, ds2: is there some issue with the image/text at http://beagleboard.org/latest-images ?
Jun 02 23:03:32 <ds2> sorry... got yanked off for something
Jun 02 23:03:49 <agmlego|skynet> That sounds nice.
Jun 02 23:04:15 <ds2> jkridner: text/images look okay here
Jun 02 23:04:36 <ds2> bbbNubee: I personally use angstrom... devil you know vs....
Jun 02 23:15:07 <GentooMan> so do they still have narcisus set up for generating a custom angstrom image?
Jun 02 23:27:20 <trigeek> Hi, new to this channel... I am trying to compile with v4l2 on a BBB running the default debian image. How can I install the linux headers?
Jun 03 00:41:53 <jkridner> ds2: thanks
