**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Sep 13 03:00:01 2017 Sep 13 08:58:07 hey guys, should I buy the original beaglebone (2nd hand) or the BBB? Sep 13 09:22:33 by original you mean a BBB revA/revB or a BeagleBoard Classic/XM? Sep 13 09:38:06 "original beaglebone" would be the BBW Sep 13 10:00:52 oh, right Sep 13 10:01:18 already forgot about that one, despite it working reliably right behind me for years Sep 13 11:55:36 yes, i meant to the Beaglebone "White" rev A6a (2012?) vs beaglebone black Sep 13 11:57:14 Hi!. I'm seeing an issue with a stock bbb, where both network interfaces (usb0, eth0) don't accept any incoming packets, and ARP doesn't work. I'm wondering if they ship with some firewall enabled by default= Sep 13 12:10:10 looks and behaves exactly as in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/mfQwHdfHyoo%5B1-25%5D Sep 13 12:33:14 plonk_: sounds odd Sep 13 12:34:22 there is a known problem where occasionally the ethernet phy powers up in a confused state Sep 13 12:34:50 when that happens, resetting the board using the reset button will always fix the problem Sep 13 12:35:09 Hi there, can any one tell me if she/he has ever got this problem: Sep 13 12:35:22 zmatt no, everytime I reboot, I have the same problem Sep 13 12:35:24 switching on the board the led blue comes and goes?? Sep 13 12:35:44 jonathan_: you mean power led just blinks briefly? Sep 13 12:35:50 yes Sep 13 12:36:19 board broken? I got 10 boards and 8 from 10 are down... sucks Sep 13 12:36:40 jonathan_: sounds like whatever you're doing with the boards is damaging them Sep 13 12:37:21 zmatt, how can I debug the state of the ethernet phy? Sep 13 12:37:49 like plugging in the power is wrong ?? ^^ well that won't get me far on Sep 13 12:38:18 plonk_: if the problem is consistent and still exists if you reset a board then the issue isn't the phy Sep 13 12:38:23 jonathan_: uhh, that sounds really odd then Sep 13 12:38:51 jonathan_: we use beaglebones by the dozens and the only ones that died are the ones we fried by doing something stupid Sep 13 12:39:49 I just plug in the 5V supply and like I said 8 out of 10 are just blinking once the power led... Ok thank's any way Sep 13 12:40:04 is the 5V supply the right one? Sep 13 12:40:30 zmatt: could power supply issues be a problem for me, I'm powering the BB via USB at the moment Sep 13 12:41:31 yeah it is the one sold with the farnell packet, I'll try powering from elsewhere like the Header pins Sep 13 12:42:00 plonk: state of phy up and down? Sep 13 12:43:04 plonk_: no Sep 13 12:43:30 Hmm, what do I do then now :( Sep 13 12:43:42 plonk_: no idea. it sounds like a software issue though Sep 13 12:43:54 when you connect ethernet, do you see link up? Sep 13 12:45:52 zmatt, yes Sep 13 12:46:08 I can also send packets, but not receive any Sep 13 12:46:24 does it manage to acquire an ip ? Sep 13 12:46:46 (or has it been set manually?) Sep 13 12:47:08 also check ip --stats link Sep 13 12:50:07 zmatt, it's got a manual ip, however it doesn't even get arp packets Sep 13 12:51:53 can you show 1. what appears in kernel log when you plug in ethernet 2. output of "ip addr" and "ip route" ? Sep 13 12:52:30 actually make that "ip --stats addr" Sep 13 12:56:03 zmatt, it's below the IP level. I don't route since both ends of the link are in the same subnet Sep 13 12:56:21 I'm tcpdumping on usb0, and am seeing 0 incoming packets Sep 13 12:57:59 I'm trying to get usb0 working first Sep 13 12:58:21 on the other side of usb0 though I'm seeing packets sent by the beaglebone Sep 13 13:14:40 zmatt: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/2f3af10bf629e5722f5d6a5162923e62 Sep 13 13:20:55 then I really have no idea Sep 13 13:25:00 hi all, how do i debug gadget serial usb interface? it does create a com port on my windows pc , and there is /dev/ttyGS in my linux, but when i send somethong, nothing appears on my linux terminal emulator SW connected to that port Sep 13 13:51:53 how can i set static value for the leds? like off / on ? Sep 13 14:44:54 ok. found the problem with my Wl18xx bluetooth post upgrade to stretch. Seems hciattach is trying to load /lib/firmware/ti-connectivity/TIInit_11.8.124.bts which does not exist and I can not find reference to via DuckDuckgo'ing Sep 13 14:46:10 i have the latest ti-connectivity-firmware installed. Any idea where to find that .bts or hoe to tell hciattach which to use Sep 13 14:47:40 btw board is BBGW Sep 13 15:25:05 Hopelessly new to the BB, I have mine setup, I want to make a backup that I can use to program a 2nd card. I need some simple instructions. Sep 13 16:20:08 mvvvv: that's for OProfile Sep 13 16:54:03 some funny stuff going on here: https://eclipse.org/cdt/documentation.php Sep 13 16:54:05 haha Sep 13 17:55:02 is gdbserver not installed in prebuilt images? Sep 13 18:51:59 is there a tutorial for remote debugging with ubuntu hosted eclipse-cdt? Sep 13 19:17:45 Hmmmmmm everywhere i look 11.8.32 is the latest.. Don't know what hciattach is thinkig looking for 11.8.124 I'll just symlink 11.8.124 to 11.8.32 Bet that'll fix it. Sep 13 19:47:14 Ahhhhhh /etc/modprobe.d/btwilink-blacklist.conf == blacklist btwilink bet that why I'm gettng cant init hci0 due to rf-kill Sep 13 19:47:25 let me comment that out and see Sep 13 19:52:00 Nope still doesn't fix it .. now get: can't init device hci0 invalid argument (22) Sep 13 20:07:43 nope... I'm flummoxed.. oh well.. bluetooth dongle works if I need BT.. would just be nice to get it fully functional. Sep 13 20:12:41 anyone know what the host name should be for remote debugging BBB with gdbserver and eclipse? Sep 14 00:17:46 Does anyone have resources on connecting a Pixy CMUcam5 with the Beaglebone Blue? Sep 14 00:57:22 Wow, I'm having trouble getting an Express Node JS server to autorun using Cloud-9 IDE's autorun folder. Has anyone done this? Sep 14 00:58:53 I made a launch.js in the autorun folder of Cloud9 IDE. This was my first attempt: Sep 14 00:58:54 var Server = require("'../MercuryDesign/trunk/bin/www"); Sep 14 00:59:03 This was my second attempt: Sep 14 00:59:50 var cp = require('child_process'); cp.execSync('cd', '../MercuryDesign/trunk'); cp.execSync('npm', 'start'); Sep 14 01:00:40 Neither attempts manage to launch the server. Would big-time appreciate any advice. Thanks. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Sep 14 03:00:00 2017
