**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Nov 06 03:00:02 2017 Nov 06 03:37:56 Before and after I die, I will figure out what in the fellow is going on w/ the Motor Bridge Cape and the BBB. I got it to work w/ the BBG for some reason. Now...onto "greatness." Nov 06 08:33:44 Hi there! i'm working on a Beaglebone Black and i would like to hotplug Ethernet... and it does not work... i tried different methods on /etc/network/interfaces... any ideas? Nov 06 08:34:18 does the network you connect it to provide DHCP or in case of IPv6 RA? Nov 06 08:34:38 which distribution are you running? which version of it? Nov 06 08:36:23 try installing ifplugd Nov 06 08:36:26 Yes the network provide DHCP and i'm working on the latest Beagleboard image Nov 06 08:36:55 but i worked on an other debian distro, the problem was the same Nov 06 08:39:40 have you looked at the system journal? Nov 06 08:40:22 yes nothing interesting if the ethernet is configured as allow-hotplug Nov 06 08:41:13 it's not just allow-hotplug, you also need to configure it for dhcp Nov 06 08:42:11 and it should be set up by default for automatic bring up of ethernet Nov 06 08:42:54 ow... now that you say that i'm not sur i did all this conf... i'll see that! thanks! Nov 06 09:08:44 is /etc/network/interfaces even consulted in any way or fashion on the default images? I thought it used connman ? Nov 06 09:59:16 journal would answer that question for sure Nov 06 09:59:45 that's why I asked about it. Nov 06 13:58:48 Hey guys! Nov 06 19:07:21 ello to y'all Nov 06 19:09:08 is there a header file for the GPIOs like there is for the pwm sys_pwmss.h in the pru-software-support-package?? Nov 06 19:16:32 carbon-cabron: try kernel sources themselves .. Nov 06 19:21:51 veremitz you mean kernel sources from the distro? Nov 06 19:55:12 general kernel sources from kernel.org contain gpio drivers :) Nov 06 19:55:20 they're not unique to bbb or any other arm :D Nov 06 20:19:04 carbon-cabron: eg. https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/gpio/driver.txt **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Nov 07 03:00:02 2017
