Yey thanks. I got to see xterm. But I need to see the desktop view so that I can test the touch screen. Maybe I got the wrong image flashed to beaglebone. I used this to reflashed my BBB when SSH stop working: https://s3.amazonaws.com/angstrom/demo/beaglebone/BBB-eMMC-flasher-2013.06.20.img.xz
I think I should have flashed the one with gnome thingy. I also had this problem that my dtbo is not loaded at boot time. I was able to unload the HDMI. here's what's inside the uEnv.txt optargs=quiet capemgr.disable_partno=BB-BONELT-HDMI,BB-BONELT-HDMIN capemgr.enable_partno= name of my cape where <name of my cape> is replaced with the name of the cape in my dts. This does not load my LCD. So I had to load it manual into the slots.
