**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Nov 07 03:00:03 2017 Nov 07 04:12:20 it is so nice mosquitto just works out straight from sources Nov 07 04:27:27 mosquitto ? Nov 07 04:43:33 hi. I'm trying to use minicom on a BBGW to monitor an rpi3b serial console. I think I have them cabled up right, and I'm using minicom at 115200 8N1 /dev/ttyS0, but I don't see anything. clues? Nov 07 04:43:39 MQTT client/broker Nov 07 04:56:15 DanC: uhh, ttyS0 is already in use as serial console of the bbgw Nov 07 04:57:42 right... I see that from https://electronics.stackexchange.com/a/139036 ; is that documented on the beagle site itself? did I miss something? Nov 07 05:00:51 ttyS0 is used as serial console on all beaglebone variants, I'm pretty sure that's documented somewhere yeah. the fact that it has a separate header instead of being part of the expansion connectors should also have been a hint that it's a bit special :) Nov 07 05:01:40 * DanC reads http://wiki.seeed.cc/BeagleBone_Green_Wireless/#uart more closely... Nov 07 05:04:37 oh, nicely done seeed... misleading pictures that fail to highlight which pins they made unusable by occupying them for the wireless functionality (an idiotic design decision of the BBGW. the BBBW doesn't have that problem) Nov 07 05:06:06 :/ Nov 07 05:08:15 for an overview of which pins are currently configured for which use on your BBGW, try the BBGW version of my show-pins util: https://github.com/mvduin/bbb-pin-utils/tree/green-wireless Nov 07 05:08:56 (though with the caveat that I haven't checked/tested it very thoroughly, I don't actually own a BBGW myself) Nov 07 05:10:25 cool Nov 07 05:38:21 I don't see uart in show-pins output, even after tweaking uEnv.txt and rebooting Nov 07 05:50:02 aha... the clue: Nov 07 05:50:02 Step 1: sudo nano /etc/default/capemgr Nov 07 05:50:03 Step 2: Change #CAPE= to: CAPE=BB-UART1,BB-UART2 Nov 07 05:50:08 -- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35881761/enabling-uart-on-beaglebone-black Nov 07 05:50:08 that's obsolete info Nov 07 05:50:27 the uarts are always enabled, you select pin function using the 'config-pin' utility Nov 07 05:50:35 no need to touch anything in /boot/uEnv.txt Nov 07 05:52:22 the BB-UART* overlays conflict with "cape-universal", which is enabled by default Nov 07 05:52:31 ah Nov 07 05:52:53 what's the syntax for ? there's a pin 21 on each side, right? Nov 07 05:54:58 P9.21 for example Nov 07 05:55:03 it also accepts P9_21 I think Nov 07 05:56:02  Nov 07 05:56:09 ehm Nov 07 05:56:27 do not send CTCPs to a whole channel, ever Nov 07 05:56:29 what did I do? (no what I meant) Nov 07 05:56:42 annoy a lot of people Nov 07 05:57:13 how did I send a CTCP?! Nov 07 05:57:49 "P9_24 pinmux file not found!" Nov 07 05:57:51 I have no idea, especially since it was a blank CTCP Nov 07 05:58:46 you should first undo whatever you did by messing with /boot/uEnv.txt or other config files :) Nov 07 06:01:19 * DanC scrubs, reboots ... Nov 07 06:05:49 "cape-universala overlay not found" . If I add -a, it tries to load that overlay; it pauses for a long time and fails Nov 07 06:06:17 uhhh Nov 07 06:06:43 which image version are you using? and is it flashed to eMMC or are you running from sd card? Nov 07 06:07:01 eMMC. it's whatever came with the device. Nov 07 06:07:23 cat /etc/dogtag Nov 07 06:08:23 BeagleBoard.org Debian Image 2016-05-27 Nov 07 06:08:43 that's pretty old Nov 07 06:09:27 maybe consider reflashing? Nov 07 06:10:29 http://wiki.seeed.cc/BeagleBone_Green_Wireless/ links to one from 2016-06-27; is there something newer? Nov 07 06:11:13 https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian Nov 07 06:11:36 I'd suggest the latest stretch-iot image Nov 07 06:12:16 technically these are snapshots, he latest official images are at bbb.io/latest-images Nov 07 06:12:19 *the Nov 07 06:13:06 but the ones at bbb.io/latest-images are not flashers (although it is pretty trivial to make one into a flasher, see https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#Flashing_eMMC for instructions) Nov 07 06:20:44 how long should `config-pin p9.26 uart` take? Nov 07 06:20:51 zero time Nov 07 06:23:30 is this actually what I want? Nov 07 06:23:31 P9.26 96 fast rx up 0 uart 1 rxd ocp/P9_26_pinmux (pinmux_P9_26_uart_pin) Nov 07 06:23:31 P9.24 97 fast rx up 0 uart 1 txd ocp/P9_24_pinmux (pinmux_P9_24_uart_pin) Nov 07 06:23:39 yep Nov 07 06:24:08 looks good to me Nov 07 11:43:49 I attempted to connect to my BBB using Adafruit's SSH over USB guide, but found that my usb0 interface does nto seem to exist. Why might that be? Am I missing some configuration? Nov 07 11:46:45 The USB port does not appear to be damaged, as I can power the device through it Nov 07 11:49:48 Running Debian 7 Nov 07 11:51:04 3.8.13-bone67 Nov 07 11:51:21 Hi! I got little problem with beaglebone black. It not working with 5V PSU Nov 07 11:51:41 only power led flash 1 time Nov 08 02:23:12 join Nov 08 02:23:45 Helo Nov 08 02:27:37 any one knows arducam3 Nov 08 02:27:42 3200 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Nov 08 03:00:02 2017
