Hi Robert, I am new to BeagleBone. Right now I am stuck up in the intial phase of using SPI0 (once I am able to use SPI0, I would go for SPI1). I tried to run the command for installing device tree compiler, but prompted "bash: dtc not found"
I have on my BBB : *Linux arm 3.8.13xenomai-bone28.1 #1 SMP Thu Nov 21 09:53:58 CET 2013 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux* And when I tried to install the dtc by sudo apt-get install dtc, it does not work and gave error like: *Err http://security.ubuntu.com precise-security/universe Translation-en* * Something wicked happened resolving 'security.ubuntu.com:http' (-11 - System error)* the same error appear when I used apt-get install for other packages. *I googled the error and accordingly two solutions:* 1) http://askubuntu.com/questions/150210/how-do-i-set-systemwide-proxy-servers-in-xubuntu-lubuntu-or-ubuntu-studio I did what is asked for but still the same results. I want to tell that for checking if my BBB has proxy I used the following command env | grep -i proxy Nothing got printed with this command (so there is no proxy) to from the link above I only used the lines no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1,localaddress,.localdomain.com" NO_PROXY="localhost,127.0.0.1,localaddress,.localdomain.com" But I have a doubt since BBB device connect to PC via USB and when I use a site to find my proxy it gives some IP, but when I used the command "env | grep -i proxy". It does not print anything. I need your suggestion. 2) I added these two lines in the file /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 8.8.4.4 and then sudo /etc/init.d/resolvconf restart Still apt-get install does not work and gives the same error as * Err http://security.ubuntu.com precise-security/universe Translation-en* * Something wicked happened resolving 'security.ubuntu.com:http' (-11 - System error)* *I would be highly obliged if you would give some suggestions.* *BR* On Tuesday, 6 August 2013 14:34:41 UTC-4, Jacob Stockton wrote: > > How does one get the device tree compiler installed on the BBB with Ubuntu > (-uname 3.8.13)?
