**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Apr 27 02:59:58 2016 Apr 27 03:00:03 anyone seen rcn yet? Apr 27 03:00:09 not recently Apr 27 03:00:19 its almost as fishy as my boot issue .. Apr 27 03:25:56 ok now I can't even build a version that know for sure I could build since I have the output in deploy/ Apr 27 03:26:29 weird system dependency? I don't see how Apr 27 10:45:59 is 100MHz ram a slow one ? or is it normal ? Whats the freq of on board ram on BBB ? Apr 27 10:46:06 is it 300MHz ? Apr 27 10:47:09 have you checked the SRM and the datasheet for the RAM part? Apr 27 10:48:05 No actually .. I'll go through it .. Apr 27 10:48:45 tbr: apart from that .. is the 100MHz ram slow ? Apr 27 10:49:00 I mean if I connect a ram to GPMC ? Apr 27 10:49:05 'that may depend on your definition of slow' Apr 27 10:49:18 well .. in general speeking ? Apr 27 10:50:13 also, will the memory management unit of the os be able to see it as ram and use it ? or it will require some tweaking ? Apr 27 10:52:28 I think for something connected to the GPMC, 100MHz is quite fast. But compared to DDR running at 500+ MHz, it's slow Apr 27 10:53:00 keep in mind that the GPMC is what, 8-bit, 16-bit wide? Apr 27 10:53:17 that means 100-200 MByte/s throughput max. Apr 27 10:53:17 its configurable I think ... Apr 27 10:53:24 is it ? Apr 27 10:58:45 processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AM3715/03_GPMC_Subsystem Apr 27 10:59:23 though its not am335x .. but its also at 100mhz and being reported to have lesser throughput Apr 27 11:01:02 and so about the os part .. we will just have to make device bindings right ? and the os will then work normally .. using the external ram isn't it ? Apr 27 11:03:03 * tbr wonders if getting one of those BBB pro things wouldn't be better as that has double the RAM Apr 27 11:04:14 http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/03/10/beaglebone-enhanced-adds-gigabit-ethernet-more-memory-usb-ports-and-sensors-crowdfunding/ Apr 27 11:04:19 meh, he left Apr 27 11:05:39 Didn't know of that BBB pro .. Apr 27 11:06:03 but I would still want to know about that os question .. just out of curiosity. Apr 27 11:06:16 http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/03/10/beaglebone-enhanced-adds-gigabit-ethernet-more-memory-usb-ports-and-sensors-crowdfunding/ Apr 27 11:06:44 yep .. I saw the logs. Apr 27 11:10:14 ahh .. my os question please ? :) Apr 27 11:11:45 we'll just have to change the device tree bindings .. to make ram work over gpmc ? yes ? Apr 27 11:27:34 Hi Apr 27 11:28:55 I tried to use tslib (for the bbb using 7'' LCD ) but I can't run ts_calibrate. Do someone have a tuto, I'm lost. Thx Apr 27 11:29:57 *has Apr 27 11:30:15 *Does sorry ;) Apr 27 12:26:39 Question: Is the beagle bone enhanced still 100Mbit Ethernet capable, or does it no longer connect to slow-town, after it had a taste of the finer things in live ? Apr 27 12:26:52 Can someone on support send me a message Apr 27 12:56:35 hi, someone knows how to use tslib with beaglebone black ? thx Apr 27 14:56:26 zmatt: hello, if it is patching order issue, is there a way to fix? or to let Robert Nelson know? Apr 27 15:10:09 zmatt: I sent him an email. Apr 27 15:26:11 I have a question about uBoot on the BBB. Is there anyone on that might want to take a try at it? Apr 27 15:27:58 Uboot on both SD and eMMC are the same and default to boot Linux off the SD card. How do you make it so that the eMMC version never boots the SD card. Yes, I would have to use the S2 button to force it to boot of the SD Apr 27 15:30:21 ED .. you need to bodge the boot scripts Apr 27 15:30:32 but since you clearly don't give a toss to hang around for an answer ... Apr 27 16:10:16 Bastid. Apr 27 16:29:06 Hey Apr 27 17:15:06 hi, does anyone know a reference to enable both UART1 and UART2 on beagle bone black? Apr 27 17:15:56 I have tried to modify the uEnv.txt under /boot but I can't just used /dev/ttyO1 and ttyO2 with screen Apr 27 17:16:21 running dmesg does not show those ports as configured Apr 27 17:50:31 I just received a new BBB but I think that the SD card reader does not work at all. It doesn't seem to recognize any cards. Apr 27 17:51:06 Is this a common problem? Is there anything I can do to try and figure out why it doesn't want to see any cards? Apr 27 17:51:30 I have tried to to boot from a card. I get only CCCCCC. Apr 27 17:51:57 I tried to "see" cards with "fdisk -l", nothing. Apr 27 17:52:24 I have tried with four different cards. One is from a Raspberry Pi that I know works. Apr 27 18:07:38 Vestax: sounds like you might want to initiate a RMA with the party you bought it from Apr 27 18:07:57 Vestax: look for possibly bent pins or such Apr 27 18:19:00 I have looked at the pins. They seem ok. It looks as if they have contact with the card. Apr 27 18:19:38 I ordered the board from China. I live in Sweden. Sending the board back would cost me almost as much as I paid for the card Apr 27 18:20:58 Am I right that "fdisk -l" should show the SD card, if it would work? Apr 27 18:21:42 I can only see mmcblk0 Apr 27 18:23:06 /proc/partitions should definitely list it Apr 27 18:36:45 I like lsblk -f :D Apr 27 18:54:27 Thanks for the suggestions. Any ideas of what could be wrong? I can't see anything physically damaged. Apr 27 18:56:01 Vestax: does it work if you plug it into a card reader in a desktop/etc ? Apr 27 18:56:20 have you tried holding the Boot button on the BBB next to the uSD slot? do you still have eMMC boot? Apr 27 18:58:22 All the different cards work with a card reader on a different computer Apr 27 18:58:52 If I hold the boot button while booting up, I get only CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC Apr 27 18:59:45 I take that as the BBB trying to boot from a disk which it does not see since I get the same result without a micro SD. Apr 27 19:09:13 CCC means ROMBL looking for UART BOOT Apr 27 19:10:02 which means that it couldn't find anything in the SD Apr 27 19:52:58 Thanks for the tip about lsblk! I did not know of that command before. Apr 27 19:53:11 No luck with seeing any sd cards though Apr 27 19:53:16 debian@beaglebone:~$ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT mmcblk0boot0 179:8 0 4M 1 disk mmcblk0boot1 179:16 0 4M 1 disk mmcblk0 179:0 0 3.6G 0 disk ├─mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 96M 0 part └─mmcblk0p2 179:2 0 3.5G 0 part / Apr 27 19:53:57 check dmesg output Apr 27 19:56:00 Yeah I was looking at dmesg before. I coult not see anything about the disk Apr 27 19:56:27 What should it say? I guess it should output something about the controller for the sd card Apr 27 19:57:07 Could someone here please give me a "normal" dmesg on a working bbb rev c? Apr 27 19:58:33 Debian 7.9 is what I have on there I think Apr 27 19:59:28 BeagleBoard.org Debian Image 2015-11-12 Apr 27 19:59:59 udebian@beaglebone:~$ uname -a Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-bone79 #1 SMP Tue Oct 13 20:44:55 UTC 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux Apr 27 20:32:17 Vestax: how are you building your card? you are aware there are specific boot files you need .. its not like it can use 'grub' (out of the box anyway!) .. you need uboot and the spl iirc Apr 27 20:56:00 I have downloaded the openbsd and debian images, copied them to the card with dd Apr 27 20:56:20 sudo dd if=bone-debian-8.3-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-01-24-4gb.img.xz of=/dev/sdf Apr 27 21:02:39 Vestax: ok that seems sane enough :) Apr 27 21:02:55 did you do a md5sum on your downloaded files, just to be sure? Apr 27 21:36:12 Yes I did a sha256sum on the debian image. Apr 27 21:36:46 I am able to mount the sd cards on my desktop pc running linux mint Apr 27 21:37:01 So I think that I should be able to at least see them on the bbb Apr 27 21:38:43 I have tested with a 2, 16 and 32 GB card. Apr 27 23:43:44 Has anyone tried starting the SGX kernel modules lately? I'm having trouble with pvrsrvkm not showing up in /dev Apr 28 01:55:21 Running a Rev B bbb, and trying to find documentation that is up to date for Debian and the 4.1 kernel. Namely for pin configuration/cape detection and PRU use (how to set up, test, use, etc the PRU's) Does anyone have anything that works on the 2015-11-12 Beagleboard image? Google is not helpful, as it only gets me stuff from 2013 or so that doesn't work **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Apr 28 02:59:58 2016
