**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Nov 08 03:00:01 2016 Nov 08 03:42:24 ball: most commonly you run the whole system from eMMC Nov 08 03:43:38 but running the whole system from μsd card is possible too, and anything in between Nov 08 03:52:45 Thanks zmatt Nov 08 03:55:40 ball: more creative options exist too, like connecting to a host computer as usb device (appearing as ethernet interface) as netbooting off of it Nov 08 03:55:43 :) Nov 08 03:56:15 or plain netbooting via ethernet (haven't tried that yet though except for small baremetal programs) Nov 08 03:59:55 (I use the usb-tethered netboot to load a tiny linux system that presents the eMMC as usb mass storage device, allowing the beaglebone to be easily backed up, flashed, or recovered if I screwed something up Nov 08 03:59:59 ) Nov 08 04:02:24 Does a Beaglebone Black have an Ethernet port? Nov 08 04:02:50 yes, a real one Nov 08 04:03:07 (not an usb-to-ethernet converter like on the rpi family) Nov 08 04:13:06 That sounds like a positive thing. **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Nov 08 05:17:47 2016 Nov 08 05:19:48 hi there Nov 08 05:19:56 quick question..for you guys Nov 08 05:20:34 any good tutorials in how to integrate open cv and beagleboard... Nov 08 06:48:34 hi Nov 08 06:59:25 i need information about kernal Nov 08 07:03:31 www.kernel.org Nov 08 07:03:34 http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Nov 08 07:20:37 lol Nov 08 08:26:43 hi Nov 08 14:31:14 is anyone here who can help me with a beginner's question about an opto-coupler on a breadboard? Nov 08 16:16:45 Hi, is there actually any "Apple Homekit" project in progress with beaglebone (I've seen a few with raspberry), thanks. Nov 08 16:17:48 no idea Nov 08 16:18:14 https://www.google.com/search?q=Apple+Homekit+beaglebone Nov 08 16:21:54 av500 : already searched for ....with no luck it would be very interesting to have a lot of gpio (relays) to be controlled via iOS devices.. Nov 08 16:23:40 Never heard of it. But Brillo can be worked out on BBB, they have support for ARM Nov 08 16:23:57 fred_tv: code that runs on rpi will run on beagle too Nov 08 16:23:58 mostly Nov 08 16:25:27 Leave it to them to name someting "Device". (rolls eyes) Nov 08 16:27:04 * Ragnorok is taken in <- lol Nov 08 16:28:23 Need to be a "MFi licensee" to make H'Kit devices? Screw them. Nov 08 16:29:07 av500: Its not just the code. The actual drivers, suppose you have to use UART or so, which needs actual pin level access needs to be properly ported. I had worked on Smart Home Gateways with different wired and wireless protocols on BBB. All of this stuff is completely h/w dependant. And porting such stuff becomes useless since it doesn't leave the developers with necessary flexibility. Nov 08 16:29:29 one needs pin level access for UART? Nov 08 16:30:02 actual pin numbers are needed in case you write an overlay Nov 08 16:30:18 sure Nov 08 16:30:35 but it would still be just a UART to the software Nov 08 16:31:08 I'm not saying the rpi SW will run as-is Nov 08 16:31:08 yeah, still every bit of care one has to take while porting Nov 08 16:31:23 but assuming its available in source.... Nov 08 17:31:07 Hey. Anyone know where I can find the BOM for Beagleboard green wireless? Or know how much the components alone cost? Nov 08 17:31:53 given on beagleboard.org Nov 08 17:32:28 cost depends on where you buy from and how much quantity Nov 08 17:34:43 Thanks Nov 08 17:34:56 Sure, I was thinking just a ballpark figure Nov 08 17:37:22 Send the BOM to Digikey or Mouser along with quantity, they'll send you the quotation (Surely the cost will be very high unless you produce in bulk) Nov 08 17:38:48 Thanks for the tip. I`ll to that right away. Nov 08 17:39:51 Download the BOM from here https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/beaglebone-getting-started/tree/BBGW/Docs/Hardware Nov 08 17:40:14 Perfect Nov 08 17:40:25 See the last file (excel document, edit the quantities you needa and send across) Nov 08 17:41:48 No offense to the #beagle channel. I would suggest you to test Beaglebone Black wireless once. Compare and choose one. Both are almost same. Nov 08 17:42:11 See it here http://beagleboard.org/black-wireless Nov 08 17:48:28 What are the advantages of the black vs green? Nov 08 18:31:21 @av500 : why are green dots visible in front of your name ? ( and other 3 - calculus/denix/Chanserv) Nov 08 18:35:05 And not in front of any other user Nov 08 18:35:29 tejas: how about now? Nov 08 18:37:41 Still shows a Blue dot in front of av500 :) Nov 08 18:39:10 I have now started reading about IRC operator in wikipedia.. Nov 08 18:39:16 on# Nov 08 19:13:51 Anyone here who do PCB/electronic circuit  design for a living? Nov 08 19:14:19 @av500/denix : Can a user identify LocOp or Globop based on these dots ? (and common abbrevation for SA they said is ChanServ) Nov 08 19:17:33 or not really ? Nov 08 19:19:24 DjDojo: o/ Nov 08 19:19:37 tejas: go look in #freenode if you need staff assistance Nov 08 19:20:33 the @ means they are channel operators, or 'moderators' Nov 08 19:21:36 Yeah. There are levels I read. Local oprerators and Global Operators. Nov 08 19:21:55 SysAdmins Nov 08 19:22:06 The tiers are often network-dependant .. but channel ops are the most common. Nov 08 19:22:50 Just want to know more about #beagle ecosystem. Nov 08 19:23:28 is quite independant of IRc :D Nov 08 19:23:36 or independent* too :D Nov 08 19:23:50 this is just a community support channel Nov 08 19:27:23 a forum for learning and/or griping about the hardware and software lol Nov 08 19:27:41 Yeah sure. on this client I typed a random channel name, it started a new channel giving me operator rights. I was curious about the server part Nov 08 19:28:34 does freenode manages all the server and MOTD or operators has to take any efforts on server for maintaining stuff Nov 08 19:28:36 ? Nov 08 19:29:41 each server has its own admins as well as the network ones.. there are often several servers on a given network Nov 08 19:30:12 you can find more about freenode on their website Nov 08 19:30:17 for #beagle only I meant Nov 08 19:30:22 ? Nov 08 19:30:44 the ircd and services look after most things Nov 08 19:41:49 jkridner++ .. like the new topic links :D Nov 08 19:48:28 There's a topic? Nov 08 19:50:16 type /topic Nov 08 19:51:00 Twar ein joke. My client happens to show it to me all the time. I just rarely look at it. (grin) Nov 08 19:51:15 :P Nov 08 20:50:36 hi folks, what exactly is cpuidle_sysfs_switch boot option ? I have to change the configs and disable the cpuidle (deep state/light state). Please throw some light on cpuidle_sysfs_switch boot option Nov 08 20:51:46 rcn had earlier suggested to rebuild the kernel, but I haven't built a kernel before, hence was looking for another option Nov 08 20:52:00 I went through https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/cpuidle/sysfs.txt Nov 08 20:52:30 There are many links available but all contain the exactly same info as in above link Nov 08 21:31:25 tlab Nov 09 01:01:58 hey, the drivers for my beagle bone black wont install. I have the right bit, and the wizard runs, but the driver install fails. Nov 09 01:06:43 [Client Quit] **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Nov 09 03:00:00 2016
