**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Feb 26 02:59:58 2016 Feb 26 06:07:07 guys i am back with same issue Feb 26 06:07:08 :s Feb 26 07:37:08 join #beagle-gsoc Feb 26 07:37:35 oops Feb 26 07:37:55 * ZeekHuge is sorry for the above mistake... Feb 26 10:33:39 Hello everyone !! Feb 26 10:34:26 hello everyone !! Feb 26 10:45:52 hello Feb 26 10:45:58 :) Feb 26 12:55:57 Hi there, I am working on a project about EtherCAT and for the evaluation I was looking to the AM3359. There is an evaluation board available, but it doesn't have an USB-Host connection. I need that for one of the applications I have to implement. So, I was wondering whether it is technically feasible to replace the AM3358 of the Beaglebone with an AM3359. Feb 26 12:58:07 does the eval board have USB at all? Feb 26 12:59:13 If you have a rework station and are skilled, you might be able to replace the SoC. Feb 26 12:59:20 The eval board offered by TI doesn't have USB connected. Feb 26 13:00:20 Can I just replace the CPU or do I need to modify other stuff on the board? Feb 26 13:00:50 I thought the bbb was a 59 *looks* Feb 26 13:01:03 nope Feb 26 13:01:22 '58 supports ethercat the same, no? Feb 26 13:01:28 virtually the same chip Feb 26 13:01:58 unless I'm heavily mistaken Feb 26 13:03:04 veremit: I think ethercat is the difference, but my memory is hazy Feb 26 13:03:23 veremit: I think early BBW or BBB was actually AM3359 but that wasn't advertized Feb 26 13:03:53 carriest: finding an old board with a AM3359 on it might work too, if you're lucky Feb 26 13:04:34 I just checked, there is a AM3359 on the BBW running my 6LoWPAN network Feb 26 13:04:36 they are pin compatible .. but I wouldn't recommend soldering a bga :) Feb 26 13:04:56 sure, you need good rework skills :) Feb 26 13:05:00 yeah seems '59 is ethercat where '58 is not. It'll only be a bloody efuse too ! Feb 26 13:05:10 ofc it is Feb 26 13:05:13 tbr: very good rework skills :p Feb 26 13:05:58 So, the older BBB and BBW had an AM3359? Did I get this right? Feb 26 13:06:51 Does anyone know which revision it was? Feb 26 13:07:09 carriest: https://store.ti.com/TMDSICE3359-AM3359-Industrial-Communications-Engine-ICE-P4684.aspx Feb 26 13:07:57 veremit: looked at the schematics for the ICE. USB is NC Feb 26 13:08:00 ah buggers .. see what you mean lol Feb 26 13:08:33 yepp Feb 26 13:08:42 why specifically usb? Feb 26 13:08:46 just convenience ;) ?! Feb 26 13:09:16 ordinary rj45 ethernet would be my preferred choice tbh Feb 26 13:09:51 tbr: I seem to recall the Beagle boards have switched am335x#s depending on availability Feb 26 13:10:07 Well, if the BBB would have a CAN interface, then I would not need a USB-Host connector Feb 26 13:11:20 veremit: yes, I just looked it up and the BBW had AM3359 between A4A and A6A (including both) Feb 26 13:11:24 err BBB Feb 26 13:11:31 the BBW probably always had a 3359 Feb 26 13:12:03 carriest: embest do a board ... Feb 26 13:12:08 carriest: there are CAN capes for the BBB Feb 26 13:12:09 That's is already a useful information. Thank you tbr Feb 26 13:12:20 carriest: http://uk.farnell.com/embest/devkit8600/am3359-cortex-a8-dev-kit/dp/2362793 Feb 26 13:12:37 http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack#Board_Revisions_and_Changes Feb 26 13:12:55 fyi .. just rattling through http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AM335x_Boards Feb 26 13:14:02 also http://www.myirtech.com/list.asp?id=466 a possibility Feb 26 13:14:03 I saw that one and I have already contacted the suppliers of those boards Feb 26 13:14:33 Unfortunately myirtech is not selling the board with AM3359 unless for mass production Feb 26 13:14:38 ah Feb 26 13:15:02 the embest board you should be able to get hold of .. I wouldn't probably personally use on in production/industral applications though :) Feb 26 13:15:02 But the embest sounds like a good choise Feb 26 13:15:17 I suspect finding a BBW or a BBB with specific revision (used) might be possible Feb 26 13:15:34 tbr: possible, but who knows what state it would be in :) Feb 26 13:16:11 I am just wondering whether there is a restriction regarding EtherCAT, as these boards seem to have only one RJ45 Feb 26 13:16:34 With EtherCAT you should always have an IN and OUT port... Feb 26 13:17:01 the boards were not designed for ethercat Feb 26 13:18:14 I know, and that might be an issue for me... Will have to go through the detailed manuals to figure it out. Feb 26 13:18:27 Or just try it ;-) Feb 26 13:19:22 Anyways, thank you guys for your support. Have a great day. Cheers Feb 26 13:19:26 btw you said you need USB to connect a canbus adapter? but the ICE has CAN Feb 26 13:20:25 Yes, but the ICE doesn't have Audio, which is another requirement Feb 26 13:20:53 neither does the BBB (except you count HDMI out) Feb 26 13:22:02 carriest: the ICE seems to have McASP exposed though Feb 26 13:22:45 at least all the pins marked mcasp are hooked up to networks, no idea where they are routed. Feb 26 13:23:31 Seriously? Let me check that... Feb 26 13:25:40 To me it looks like those pins are used for other purposes. Feb 26 14:35:56 tbr: note: they just used the am3359 in early BBBs because those chips were available first. there's no way to actually make use of EtherCAT on a BBB Feb 26 14:36:24 i.e. there's no benefit in placing an am3359 on a BBB instead of an am3358 Feb 26 14:40:03 zmatt: yes, I did remember that it wasn't very useful, but assumed that the guy knew what he wanted... Feb 26 14:40:27 also, mcasps can be mapped to various pins... on a BBB both McASP 0 and McASP 1 are accessible, though McASP 1 is limited to slave mode Feb 26 14:43:02 4 serializers on McASP 0, 2 on McASP 1, so you're limited to 96 audio channels total :P Feb 26 14:46:27 (if you use 16-channel TDM) Feb 26 14:58:45 hi Feb 26 14:59:04 does any one know what firmware is in beaglebone orignal Feb 26 14:59:15 i mean bootloader Feb 26 15:06:00 which version of u-boot you mean? Feb 26 15:06:31 well i am manufacturing the beaglebone Feb 26 15:06:38 A6 rev b Feb 26 15:06:57 beaglebone or beaglebone black? Feb 26 15:07:00 and when i turn it on from sd card it does not boot up Feb 26 15:07:16 it is white beaglebone Feb 26 15:08:11 you're manufacturing them? did you correctly program the eeprom? Feb 26 15:08:30 i did not program any eeprom ? Feb 26 15:08:55 thats what i want to know if i need to program Feb 26 15:09:52 the eeprom is used for board identification Feb 26 15:10:12 i.e. to distinguish between am335x-evm, beaglebone white, beaglebone black, etc Feb 26 15:11:49 alright Feb 26 15:14:00 might want to check serial console output... Feb 26 15:14:01 so i am building beaglebone whit ( A6B) , from where i can download the eeprom ( program files) and how to program it on board Feb 26 15:15:03 how to check serial console output Feb 26 15:16:57 by using a serial cable and a terminal app like screen or minicom Feb 26 15:19:59 okay ... for serial console do i need to install the board drivers ? Feb 26 15:20:17 and can i use the hyperterminal ? Feb 26 15:32:05 ?? Feb 26 15:32:41 how to program the eeprom on beaglbone white Feb 26 16:12:54 hello Feb 26 16:13:45 vagrantc @ i am able to see data on serial Feb 26 16:13:59 it five me error that eeprom is missing the contents Feb 26 16:14:16 do you want me to copy the message Feb 26 16:16:33 atiq: you built a custom board? and you don't know how to program the eeprom? Feb 26 16:17:01 No i did not build the custom board Feb 26 16:17:04 ah. Feb 26 16:17:16 it is actually same bom and pcb files Feb 26 16:18:11 now i do not know if the eeprom actually needs to be programmed or not Feb 26 17:04:25 I have a inland 4 Port USB 2.0 Hub and it will not enumerate at boot up **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Feb 26 17:11:54 2016 Feb 26 17:59:57 hello everyone Feb 26 18:00:17 im having some issues with my beagleboard xm, any kind soul willing to help? Feb 26 18:05:24 root___: https://workaround.org/getting-help-on-irc/ Feb 26 18:05:50 good to follow those guidelines or it'll tend to make folks grumpy Feb 26 18:10:35 thank you, alexhiam. I installed angstrom on my beagleboard xm (got everything from here http://downloads.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beagleboard/), but while booting, i get tremendous kernel message outputs from serial (its a serial-usb adapter at /dev/ttyUSB0), along with the normal output with the Angstrom logo along with the login prompt, but i can't log in, none of the login information i write see Feb 26 18:10:41 ms to get through. im using minicom to communicate with the board, the parameters are all set appropriately. Feb 26 18:13:20 I have no experience with the xm... but how do you know what you're typing doesn't get through? Does pressing enter change anything? If so it could just be that minicom is set to not echo what you send Feb 26 18:14:57 no matter what i type, nothing happens, when the echo is enabled the text appears, but nothing happens either Feb 26 18:16:23 root___: looks like the xm uses hardware flow control on that serial port, is it enabled in minicom? Does your usb-serial adapter support flow-control? Feb 26 18:17:02 oh, nvm, I guess it doesn't use flow-control... is flow-control disabled in minicom? Feb 26 18:17:26 I'm just looking here http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardBeginners#Tedious_Old-Fashioned_Way_Using_Minicom Feb 26 18:21:18 i have hardware flow control enabled, software flow control disabled Feb 26 18:21:32 also, i was wrong about the echo, even with echo turned on it doesnt echo back anything Feb 26 18:22:08 yeah, so turn hardware flow control off as well Feb 26 18:22:43 or just '$ sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200' Feb 26 18:27:22 disabling hardware flow control did it! thank you very much! :) Feb 26 18:28:24 np Feb 26 19:29:35 hello every one Feb 26 19:29:52 can any one tell me how to load beaglebone memory to u7 Feb 26 19:59:39 Ha! after weeks of struggle my BeagleBone program is running great! Feb 26 20:05:31 good for you twten Feb 26 20:05:40 could you help me too Feb 26 20:07:31 ?? Feb 26 20:07:50 seriously no one talk here Feb 26 20:08:20 atiq: https://workaround.org/getting-help-on-irc/ Feb 26 20:09:56 atiq: might also help if you elaborated a bit, I have no idea what you're asking there Feb 26 20:10:25 okay Feb 26 20:10:42 I manufactured the beaglebone board Feb 26 20:10:53 but it does not boot Feb 26 20:11:27 i look into serial console and found that the eeprom is not programed Feb 26 20:11:37 ah, so u7 being a reference designator on the schematic? Feb 26 20:11:49 yes Feb 26 20:12:03 and u7 has no information about board Feb 26 20:12:48 so i need to know how i can program eeprom on board Feb 26 20:12:57 I imagine circuitco orders those factory programmed Feb 26 20:13:08 the datasheet for the eeprom will tell you how to write to it Feb 26 20:14:12 okay, and i bought the part from on semi ( empty ) Feb 26 20:15:07 I saw the u7 schematics .... but do not know how to write it Feb 26 20:18:16 well, have you tried googling how to write to i2c eeproms? It's pretty well documented... Feb 26 20:21:24 No i did not. but I will do it. Feb 26 20:22:29 last thing is if i get the part from circuitco it will be already programed Feb 26 20:24:03 I doubt they'd sell you an EEPROM. You can typically order them pre-programmed from the manufacturer and some suppliers for an added cost Feb 26 20:24:32 Thats great Feb 26 20:24:40 you solved my prgrame sir.... Feb 26 20:24:51 I am very thankful to you Feb 26 20:30:54 atiq, they are flashed on the prodcution line:... Feb 26 20:31:09 is it 100% black clone? (ddr/hdmi?) Feb 26 20:32:51 rcn-ee: did I tell you I was getting an error in firefox on your eewiki site? Feb 26 20:38:37 veremit, cert? another co-worker see's an error randomly with firefox.. i never see it with iceweasel. Feb 26 20:39:29 rcn-ee: probably an intermediate cert missing? that would make the error depend on how up-to-date the system CA database is Feb 26 20:40:39 (by intermediate cert I specifically mean the cross-signature by IdenTrust) Feb 26 20:41:50 https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-x1-cross-signed.pem.txt Feb 26 20:42:31 i have no real admin powers on that server. ;) i just let them know when it's down ;) Feb 26 20:45:08 hm, never mind, the server does send that cross-signed intermediate cert Feb 26 20:46:45 server config seems to be right Feb 26 20:46:56 veremit: sorry, the problem is on your side :P Feb 26 20:47:57 there's also a load balancer in front of it.. sometimes the browser connected via https get's confused.. (even thou it's only one server behind the load balancer..) Feb 26 20:48:25 (shakes fist at it guys's, that was annoying to debug) Feb 26 20:48:36 rcn-ee: btw, did I already mention I measured the distance of my weird lcd glitch: it's exactly 32 pixels Feb 26 20:49:31 that doesn't really get me any closer to solving it, but still Feb 26 20:51:40 next plan is to hook up jtag, halt the cpu and inspect the framebuffer pointers and framebuffer memory Feb 26 20:57:03 zmatt, have you tried pinging Jyri Sarha? he's starting to take over maintaince of ticdc on mainline.. Feb 26 21:13:19 I've only just resumed debugging this issue... I first want to see if I can narrow it down a bit and/or make a simple test case Feb 26 21:13:56 I'm writing c++ in Qt creator on my BBB using the libpruss library - what's a good way to read some sensors on a Dallas one wire connection? Feb 26 21:14:54 libpruio Feb 26 21:15:10 twoten, the kernel can read it: https://github.com/beagleboard/bb.org-overlays/blob/master/examples/BB-W1-P9.12/example.sh Feb 26 21:16:12 rcn-ee: but thanks for the tip Feb 26 21:17:19 oooh sweet! thanks rcn! Feb 26 21:45:15 rcn-ee: firefox aurora 24 here .. zmatt's probably right .. its an ancient build lol Feb 26 21:45:37 veremit: shouldn't really matter, the intermediate cert is included Feb 26 21:45:51 zmatt: well yeah I don't get it :/ Feb 26 21:46:06 but I definitely get a security warning every time Feb 26 21:46:19 can't be a ca cert .. its fine in chromium Feb 26 21:47:05 problem is .. memory management in these two browsers I can't run both in this 8gb system :/ (but then I have 200 tabs open for some reason in FF) Feb 26 21:47:29 chromium v35 for ref. Feb 26 21:47:37 I need food. brb :) Feb 26 23:35:42 Hi, trying to compile new kernel for angstrom. Starting with angstrom image for beaglebone which works fine. Then i compile kernel with beaglebone configuration as is written on official angstrom website. Then take uImage and device trees and move it instead of old kernel but without success. Playing with it but still it gets stucks at Starting kernel... and after sometime (watchdog?) beaglebone just resets. Somebody some quick tips? Feb 26 23:48:54 kamtar, which kernel tree are you building from? Feb 26 23:56:19 who knows, just using the angstrom env. config beagleboard ; bitbake virtual/kernel Feb 27 02:46:09 i need a help Feb 27 02:46:51 can anybody know how to start IOT development with beagle bone vlack Feb 27 02:46:56 *black Feb 27 02:47:28 is there any plateform/framework avilable ?? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Feb 27 02:59:58 2016
