**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon May 13 02:59:56 2019 May 13 10:24:30 hi any one can share pre bulit UI img for beagle borad x15 May 13 10:37:00 there should be official images May 13 10:37:30 http://beagleboard.org/latest-images May 13 12:14:13 CoffeeBreakfast: none that I installed so far changed the weight of the BBB in a noticeably way, so i'd say all are more or less equally "lightweight" :) May 13 12:16:11 CoffeeBreakfast: why should it be? May 13 12:16:49 CoffeeBreakfast: i mean, do you have some specific technical restraints/requirements? or are you just asking for "lightweight" because, well, it sounds good? May 13 12:20:26 check. May 13 12:20:49 probably not for a couple of 100k clients, of course.... :-P May 13 12:22:09 if each transfers a couple of GB per session and that simultaneously... you're doomed. May 13 12:22:49 uhh, am I missing something? what are you replying to? May 13 12:22:58 no, seriously. almost certainly its *NOT* the httpd that gives you headaches, but rather any kind of server-side scripting, data processing, etc. May 13 12:23:57 zmatt: looking for a "lightweight" httpd, and finding that "if apache2 works, i'm fine" May 13 12:24:21 CoffeeBreakfast: use whatever you know best, simple as that. May 13 12:24:41 right here/now? I'm seeing only your side of the conversation... is some ignore rule spuriously triggering or something, hmm May 13 12:27:30 ping May 13 12:27:34 pong May 13 12:27:59 now everything is fine (?) May 13 12:28:08 I do see that at least May 13 12:29:16 as far as I can tell I don't have any ignore rule that could explain why I couldn't see the stuff you said which LetoThe2nd was replying to... very odd May 13 12:30:33 I wasn't identified... dunno. May 13 12:30:38 AH May 13 12:30:39 lol May 13 12:30:46 yeah, then only ops will see you May 13 12:31:08 they had to enable that channel mode due to spam issues May 13 12:32:07 zmatt: don't be jealous (?) May 13 12:33:01 lol May 13 12:33:07 it was mostly just confusing May 13 12:35:14 does the irc net give no indication to you that this is happening? because that's really annoying if unidentified chatters won't realize that noone but ops see their message May 13 12:37:25 indeed it does not May 13 12:37:27 that sucks May 13 12:38:04 my bad. I should have checked in the freenode buffer. May 13 12:38:59 did you get a notification there? I'm not May 13 12:39:00 But not warnings in *this* buffer when I send messages May 13 12:39:13 no warnings* May 13 12:39:37 I'm not seeing warnings of any sort May 13 12:43:56 LetoThe2nd, jkridner[m]: might want to /mode #beagle -z May 13 12:44:10 the +z makes users unaware that their messages are being blocked (and why) May 13 12:44:38 okay it actually never says why, but at least without +z they know that their messages aren't going through May 13 12:45:19 they can still just send a private message to ops to ask why May 13 12:46:12 perhaps a better solution would be a bot that automatically sends a private message to unidentified users that won't match any exemptions (i.e. webchatters) May 13 12:46:18 *don't match May 13 12:50:58 agree May 13 13:59:13 Is there any way to connect external dongle to support 5ghz wifi to bbbw May 13 14:04:46 you'd need to disable the internal wifi and connect an external wifi usb stick (that supports 5 GHz and has a working linux driver) May 13 15:09:03 zmatt do you know the onion omega2? May 13 15:09:11 never heard of it May 13 15:15:26 it is a board, with a poor linux distro + wifi. I want to setup the BBB for similar functionality. Suppose I have powered the BBB (not by usb) and a wifi usb stick. 1. I want to reach the BBB through the wifi usb stick, like a wifi network. Then grant access the BBB to a proper network with internet, with the same wifi usb stick... it is possible? May 13 15:17:11 as long as you pick a wifi usb stick that supports simultaneous client and AP mode, sure? May 13 15:33:35 any clue? brand, model? May 13 15:58:39 hmm, this table does include for some whether AP mode works, but it often doesn't mention whether it supports AP + station at the same time: https://elinux.org/RPi_USB_Wi-Fi_Adapters May 13 15:59:59 in theory you could do without, i.e. disable AP mode while it's connecting/connected to an AP, and reenable it if that fails May 13 16:00:22 but that's not really ideal May 13 16:01:04 plus you'd need some way to get it back into AP mode if it successfully connects to a wifi network (or thinks it is) but is nevertheless not reachable for whatever reason May 13 17:08:57 thanks zmatt May 13 19:41:35 I would like to consider moving from BBB to BB-X15. It has more power and pins. The main impediment for me at this time that it does not have those comfortable headers that BBB has. Is there a way to convert those tiny X15 headers into BBB-like headers? Maybe there is a cape that does the conversion? Or maybe there is an available design that we can send for the implementation? Since it is for the evaluation, there are no size con May 13 19:48:51 dreamhiker: http://beagleboard.org/ai May 13 19:49:18 dreamhiker: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/beagleboard-x15/eloOpBHKbnk/U-cnR7wiBwAJ shows a small break-out board someone made for the hirose connectors May 13 19:49:40 rcn-ee[m]: ai doesn't have "more pins" though May 13 19:50:19 true May 13 20:55:56 Sorry, zmatt, you have provided the reference to a discussion forum. Could you please point me to the breakout board? Is it in https://github.com/ctag-fh-kiel/ctag-face-2-4/tree/0870dabe6255de9a6f2d17c8a3faa6b2b3074e04/extension-capes/x15-adaptor_a May 13 20:57:17 I don't have information beyond what's in that forum thread May 13 20:57:48 I simply remembered that someone shared the design of a breakout in that thread, and that evidently it enabled someone else to actually have some of those produced May 13 20:57:59 hence it seemed of potential interest to your question May 13 21:16:30 Zmatt: Thank you! May 13 23:02:16 Hi May 13 23:02:40 Is there any body out to help me on how to enable the UART pins please? May 13 23:03:26 Currently, the UART 1 and 5 pins are not enabled and giving this error "Set pin mode failed for uart channel" May 13 23:03:47 Any help would be great May 13 23:05:07 chi_: your question is vague. what is giving that error exactly? May 13 23:05:27 you can configure pins using the config-pin utility May 13 23:06:03 I tried it..but it is not working zmatt May 13 23:06:11 e.g. config-pin P9.24 uart for the uart1 txd pin May 13 23:06:30 (assuming you're talking about a beaglebone black) May 13 23:06:34 yes tried it, May 13 23:06:39 it is BBBw May 13 23:07:00 yeah, BBBW is identical to BBB with regard to the expansion headers May 13 23:07:45 what error does it give *exactly* ? (please copy-paste if it's a single line, or use a paste service like pastebin.com if it's multiple lines) May 13 23:08:04 It seems, the UART port 2 and 4 are by default enabled on my BBBw, But I want remaining 2 ports (1 and 5) to be enabled May 13 23:08:16 no uart is enabled by default normally May 13 23:08:37 depending on what you mean by "enabled" May 13 23:09:07 This is the erro zmatt.. https://pastebin.com/i8y2P6er May 13 23:09:11 by default they are enabled but no pinmux is configured for any of them May 13 23:10:00 I am not sure, how they were enabled, but working fine with my sensors on UART 2 and UART 4 May 13 23:10:24 but, UART 1 and UART 5 are not working May 13 23:10:52 yeah P8.27-P8.46 are unavailable if video (hdmi) is enabled. you can disable video by uncommenting the line "disable_uboot_overlay_video=1" in /boot/uEnv.txt (and reboot) May 13 23:11:05 uart 1 shouldn't conflict with anything though, I think May 13 23:11:38 Ok, let me try UART 5 first then May 13 23:11:54 I will try to disable the hdmi May 13 23:12:12 but what I was asking about is uart 1 May 13 23:12:32 (P9.24 and P9.26) May 13 23:15:07 UART 1 is also not working ..got following error, ..https://pastebin.com/rh5sgPCx May 13 23:15:29 that's really strange May 13 23:15:57 can you install my show-pins utility and pastebin its output: https://github.com/mvduin/bbb-pin-utils/#show-pins May 13 23:16:17 (pastebin the output of sudo show-pins | sort preferably) May 13 23:17:03 Ok sure, I will do now May 13 23:18:36 Ohh..I don't have internet connection here, Anyway, will you help me on enabling the UART 5 port please? May 13 23:20:07 ehm, I already mentioned how to fix that May 13 23:20:17 but there's clearly more going on with your beaglebone May 13 23:20:25 are you using the latest debian image? May 13 23:21:00 do you have a "cape" (expansion board) attached to your beaglebone? May 13 23:21:39 Honestly, I don't know, what is expansion board May 13 23:22:55 a board that plugs into the expansion headers, like one of these => https://www.seeedstudio.site/media/learn/images/old/wiki/learn_0578.jpg (although there are lots of different ones) May 13 23:23:23 can you tell me the output of: cat /proc/cmdline May 13 23:24:46 https://pastebin.com/A07D0JkL May 13 23:24:59 output of cat /proc/cmdline May 13 23:25:14 ok May 13 23:25:36 I just disabled the video line for UART 5, do I have to reboot? May 13 23:25:49 I explicitly said "and reboot" May 13 23:26:04 Ok, May 13 23:28:26 debian May 13 23:28:46 btw, if your beaglebone doesn't have internet access, you can also install my show-pins script simply by downloading it (url is in the installation instructions) on your computer, transferring it to the beaglebone, and then installing it with: chmod a+x show-pins && sudo cp show-pins /usr/local/sbin/ May 13 23:29:43 btw, The UART 5 is enabled, working fine.. Thanks a lot May 13 23:30:08 that leaves the question of what is occupying the pins of uart 1 May 13 23:31:22 Ok, can I transfer the downloaded fine WinSCP? May 13 23:31:26 yes May 13 23:31:32 Ok, **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue May 14 02:59:57 2019
