Hi everyone! I have started using the BBB with Ubuntu (I installed a preconfigured image of 13.10 saucy onto a microSD card and boot from that) and it is working great.
My issue now is that I have an external USB device that I am communicating with on the standard USB port (Not the micro one), and if I have the device connected when I boot the BBB it doesn't even recognize the port at all, and never will even if I plug it in later. I use the bash command "lsusb" to check my usb ports, and if I leave the device disconnected at boot, and then connect it once I can SSH into my BBB (Once I know the system has booted properly) then this is how the output looks: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub But, if I have the external device connected to the USB port when I boot my BBB (Power cycle), then the output of "lsusb" looks like this: Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub The FTDI on Bus 001 Device 002 is of course the one I want to use. Any ideas about how I can get around this? It is very annoying to have to leave things unplugged when I cycle power, and then plug them in later just to get them to work. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
