**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Oct 21 02:59:58 2016 Oct 21 06:26:56 UXTerm + CMatrix = coolness Oct 21 07:06:59 My zeroinstall feeds for atari are now working on the Beaglebone Black: http://www.noxbanners.net/zeroinstall-feeds/ Oct 21 07:07:35 Zeroinstall is available in the repo as zeroinstall-injector Oct 21 07:18:54 Please test! Oct 21 07:26:03 hi, I am integrating usb wifi dongle with beagle board. I have entered required data in etc/network/interfaces and wpa/supplicant files related to wlan. When I execute wpa supplicant file I got the error this error “wlan0: failed to initialize driver mode” . It is also not showing its essid in iwconfig. I tried to insert essid in iwconfig but I got this error “Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) : SET failed on device Oct 21 07:26:36 I have googled a lot but didnt find any solution. Oct 21 08:11:00 hi guys, i am flashing a new image on the beagle bone but with almost every image in the repository i get the message: Trying to boot from MMC2 Expected Linux image is not found. Trying to start U-boot Oct 21 08:11:07 using the BBB Oct 21 08:11:30 do i have to change the uEnv.txt ? does anyone know? Oct 21 08:16:43 hi Oct 21 09:24:27 Are the boot.cmd and boot.scr still being used on latest debian images for BBB? Oct 21 13:33:19 no Oct 21 13:33:25 oh, he left Oct 21 13:33:47 lys: uhh what? Oct 21 13:33:59 lys: I've never seen that message Oct 21 13:35:48 lys: do you get that when attempting to flash or when attempting to boot after flashing? can you paste a boot log? (e.g. via pastebin.com) Oct 21 14:12:38 Hi folks, I am facing some problem while using systemd Oct 21 14:12:44 on BBB Oct 21 14:13:04 Since systemd is a hybrid of sysvinit and new stuff Oct 21 14:13:35 can I modify the skeleton file ? and update it for defaults of multiuser-target Oct 21 14:13:57 just like other systems do using sysvinit Oct 21 14:14:34 will this way work on BBB ? (To use modified skeleton than using system services for init system) Oct 21 15:15:59 so just out of curiosity, how does the beagle community feel about nodejs? Oct 21 15:34:39 I don't do javascript so I view it with fear and suspcion Oct 21 15:35:33 Kidding aside, I haven't heard anything bad about it anywhere? Oct 21 15:37:36 I'm in the same boat- I never was able to take it seriously but I guess it's used to solve real problems Oct 21 15:37:46 Javascript always came across as a perverted C to me Oct 21 15:41:14 hi Oct 21 15:41:55 I think the thing that worried me most about javascript is that semicolons aren't "required" Oct 21 15:42:02 haha its awful Oct 21 15:42:10 and that not doing so can introduce subtle bugs Oct 21 15:42:19 there's definitely more serious things to be worried about, prototyping inheritance Oct 21 15:42:56 the odd way things are scoped- where you can declare functions inside of functions which may or may not be destroyed after the parent function is called/destroyed depending on how it was assigned during its lifetime Oct 21 15:42:57 Right, but at surface level that's what initially scared me away from it. That said, you can cause silly problems in Python too if you make an indentation mistake ^_^ Oct 21 15:43:04 Which I have done a few times ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ Oct 21 15:44:10 like likne 88 from bonescript: https://github.com/jadonk/bonescript/blob/master/src/socket_handlers.js Oct 21 15:44:43 e.g. being in multiple loops and indenting a "break" or "continue" statement incorrectly Oct 21 15:45:04 it declares a function which takes two arguments, and a function inside the function which takes a seperate argument, but then uses one of the arguments from the parent function in it's body even after the parent funciton has finished executing Oct 21 15:48:45 Uh, these resemble lambdas more than functions to me Oct 21 15:48:57 Took me a second to see what was going on there Oct 21 15:49:02 I don't read js often Oct 21 15:49:03 yeah thye are lambdas Oct 21 15:49:38 You're saying this is a bug? Oct 21 15:49:42 but in javascript, functions are first class- actually i'm pretty sure everything in javascript boils down a to a c++-style key-value pair Oct 21 15:49:46 no i'm saying its very frekay Oct 21 15:49:48 freaky* Oct 21 15:49:57 because scoping is so unintuitive Oct 21 15:50:57 nah it's just.... differently tuitive? B) Oct 21 15:51:20 i go into ##programming and just say "C is the best language" and it starts a fight, every time Oct 21 15:51:35 sometimes i have to say it twice Oct 21 15:51:38 C is the best language as long as you heap tons of syntactic sugar on top of it Oct 21 15:51:45 It's like black coffee Oct 21 15:51:53 good black coffee Oct 21 15:52:01 But sometimes it's just too bitter Oct 21 15:52:35 The best programs are nothing but macros Oct 21 15:52:36 *shot* Oct 21 15:52:40 I mean, I think it just deserves so many points for lol Oct 21 15:52:42 okay we're done Oct 21 15:52:47 mathonnapkins is dead Oct 21 15:53:16 I have seen programs that were C but barely recognizable due to overmacrofication Oct 21 15:53:36 yeah i mean a poorly programmed program is what it is Oct 21 15:53:44 but if you look at like the kernel source Oct 21 15:53:50 Hi. Has anyone got BBGW working with Mac? I'm trying and it just won't connect with wifi or usb. Oct 21 16:30:49 Is is possible to find out which pin on extension board header on BBB is for example: AM33XX_IOPAD(0x880, PIN_INPUT_PULLUP | MUX_MODE2 ...? Oct 21 17:06:28 is ther a possibility to upgrade beaglebone black without using Micro-SD Oct 21 17:17:51 u-boot is able to load the OS off of the network ... but i'm not sure if there are flasher images designed for network boot Oct 21 17:25:01 MathOnNapkins: I'd like to use C++ with lots of sugar. But I'm heavily invested in Python right now Oct 21 17:25:51 ericxdu: can't complain about that choice Oct 21 18:07:31 wtf, github is down Oct 21 18:07:58 joel_: Good you're confirming I'm not crazy ! Oct 21 18:18:45 There's a DDoS attack going on against dyndns apparently Oct 21 18:18:56 and github is on the listed of affected sites Oct 21 18:19:16 http://gizmodo.com/this-is-probably-why-half-the-internet-shut-down-today-1788062835 Oct 21 18:27:01 yeah - http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Major-Websites-Taken-Down-by-Internet-Attack-397905801.html Oct 21 18:30:00 Wow, I was so focused on my work today that I missed the tech news completely. They say it started this morning Oct 21 21:05:08 hello...any humans on here? Oct 21 21:19:28 If there are any left, they will surely be eliminated soon. Oct 21 21:26:16 MathOnNapkins: Like your answer to @mzimmers Oct 21 22:02:51 =3 Oct 21 22:12:36 LaMs: well technically it would still be entirely possible that github is down *and* you're crazy ;-) Oct 21 22:14:07 ericxdu: the C++ I typically write is sufficiently sugar-rich that I use custom syntax highlighting rules in vim ;-) Oct 21 22:43:35 :( Oct 21 22:43:57 trying to install tools on this system and the internet is down Oct 21 22:46:08 at least it's not dialup :/ Oct 21 22:46:12 github works here Oct 21 22:46:32 fedora isn't installing a can-utils for me Oct 21 22:47:57 now it went thru **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Oct 22 02:59:58 2016
