Aug 10 03:06:32 <MrCurious> ugh, cant talk to device on BB blue using usb serial ttyUSB0, but works fine on laptop under linux
Aug 10 03:06:56 <zmatt> did you configure the pins?
Aug 10 03:07:03 <zmatt> oh wait, usb
Aug 10 03:07:15 <MrCurious> tried minicom, screen...
Aug 10 03:07:31 <MrCurious> got it corming with cutecom on laptop
Aug 10 03:07:46 <zmatt> earlier you mentioned ttyS1-S5 though... those aren't usb serial devices
Aug 10 03:08:01 <MrCurious> i was trying for the GPS connector port
Aug 10 03:08:06 <MrCurious> as it is a 5v serial device
Aug 10 03:08:25 <MrCurious> with 3.3v tx rx
Aug 10 03:08:58 <MrCurious> hah!
Aug 10 03:09:07 <MrCurious> works with a backgrounded cat and a echo...
Aug 10 03:09:19 <zmatt> sounds like wrong termios or something
Aug 10 03:09:28 <zmatt> (tty settings)
Aug 10 03:09:53 <zmatt> maybe
Aug 10 03:10:33 <MrCurious> and hotplugging it made the BB mad… rebooting
Aug 10 03:10:45 <MrCurious> should have my port answer in 2 minutes
Aug 10 03:10:52 <zmatt> oh now you mean usb again, ok
Aug 10 03:10:59 <MrCurious> no
Aug 10 03:11:06 <MrCurious> now i am back to ttyS[0-5]
Aug 10 03:11:11 <MrCurious> and ttyGS0
Aug 10 03:11:21 <MrCurious> trying to find its native port for the GPS connector
Aug 10 03:11:39 <zmatt> uhh, I can't imagine why it would be bothered by hotplugging
Aug 10 03:11:42 <MagusOTB> ok sweet, systemctl disable connman and now my /etc/network/interfaces is working
Aug 10 03:11:46 <zmatt> it's not like it can even detect it
Aug 10 03:12:06 <zmatt> and dunno about this gsm business, that's apparently something blue-specific
Aug 10 03:15:16 <MrCurious> i think you are right, i need to enable the pins
Aug 10 03:18:46 <MrCurious> i think i will need to wait and ask j k r i d n e r (dont want to summon him)
Aug 10 03:25:57 <moto-timo> beetlejuice beetlejuice bettlejuice
Aug 10 03:49:00 <MrCurious> welp, i have exhausted my google-fu on working out how to r/w to the GPS connector (serial port) on the Blue
Aug 10 15:30:28 <MrCurious> anyone know of a link that can give me the clue on how to enable serial on teh connector labeled GPS on the BB Blue?
Aug 10 16:26:39 <tbr> MrCurious: is there like an SRM for the blue? that would help you to connect the dots, probably
Aug 10 17:15:48 <Archie> Help
Aug 10 17:19:26 <Archie_> I have an application where I need to configure the WiFi in Ad hoc mode to communicate with other WiFi devices configured in client mode. WHat will be your suggestion?

Aug 10 21:01:39 <veremit> Archie: that can be done .. what are you using for wireless configuration tool .. you'll likely need wpa_supplicant and possibly another tool ...
Aug 10 22:10:59 <MrCurious_work> jkridner: can you point me at a clue for which port maps to BB blue connector labeled GPS, and what pin definitions i might need to activate it? any hints are appreciated.  tried a few hours of testing and googling last night
Aug 10 22:15:01 <MrCurious_work> i think tonight i will try it with a new virgin BB blue fresh out of box, and see if it is because i messed up its configuration
Aug 11 02:10:10 <MrCurious> jkridner: if you have a second, could you let me know which serial port is bound to the BB Blue gps connector?
Aug 11 02:18:21 <MrCurious> ahhh! it is uart2…
Aug 11 02:33:10 <MrCurious> time to reverse tx/rx pins, in case i cabled wrong
Aug 11 02:53:52 <MrCurious> reversing wires.. fail.  connecting GPS to the GPS connector (one that works on uart5) fails
Aug 11 02:54:03 <MrCurious> i can only assume i need to do something to turn on uart2
Aug 11 02:57:58 * MrCurious lays in wait for jkridner :)
