Hi there!

I don't know how to get BBB's DCAN1 working, though I've been striving for 
quite a long time.

I installed the OS from a Debian image available at http://beagleboard.org/ 
and followed the guide 
http://dev.ardupilot.com/wiki/building-the-code/building-for-beaglebone-black-on-linux/
 
to make the kernel RT-Preempt:

root@beaglebone:~# uname -a
Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-rt9-00899-g3d8f2b1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Jan 31 
12:22:12 CET 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux

To work with DCAN1, I also followed the guide 
http://www.embedded-things.com/bbb/enable-canbus-on-the-beaglebone-black/ 
using the suggested device tree overlay:

root@beaglebone:~# modprobe can
root@beaglebone:~# modprobe can-dev
root@beaglebone:~# modprobe can-raw
root@beaglebone:~# echo BB-DCAN1 > $SLOTS
root@beaglebone:~# cat $SLOTS

Pins seem to be muxed correctly:

root@beaglebone:~# cat $PINS | grep 984
pin 97 (44e10984) 00000032 pinctrl-single
root@beaglebone:~# cat $PINS | grep 980
pin 96 (44e10980) 00000012 pinctrl-single

Now, as I run a simple cansend-candump test on can0, candump doesn't get 
anything. Is there anyone who can help me out?

Thank you

Frudak
