Re: [beagleboard] QEMU emulation of BeagleBone and Raring
Hi, Qemu static means you do not run vm, it is just chroot into /path/to/arm/root/filesystem having qemu-arm-static in /path/to/arm/root/filesystem/usr/bin You provided argument for qemu vm which is second option in my question and I have no network issues there, only uboot question.

[beagleboard] Running debian from internal BBB flash
Hi all, I have managed to get my BBB running Debian unstable from a plugin 8G micro SD card. After installing everything I currently need, this external micro SD card is currently only 16% full. My understanding is that the internal Flash of the BBB is 2G which suggests that I should be able to transfer my current install from the external micro SD card to the internal Flash. Is this correct? If so, how can I do this?

[beagleboard] SPI 2 input wires

I am currently using C++ and spidev.h to do the normal thing, now my question is how deep do I have to go for allowing data to be read at both pins. I guess I have to modify at least the ioctl() command, but I don't have any idea where I could do this. Hope you can give a hint.

[beagleboard] Trying to build Angstrom for a TI am335x-evm board
Hey Guys, I've got a question for you guys that I've been googling to find the answer for the last day and a half and so far nothing that I've changed has fixed it. I'm new to building Angstrom so go easy on me it's probably just a simple configuration that's not set correct. When I run MACHINE=am335x-evm bitbake systemd-gnome-image I get this u-boot-denx was skipped: incompatible with machine am335x-evm (not in COMPATIBLE_MACHINE) but when I run MACHINE=beagleboard bitbake systemd-gnome-image I don't get the error. I know these boards are close to the same and I actually have both of them and I need to be able to build an image for the am335x-evm board and I can't seem to figure it out. I checked out the remotes/origin/angstrom-v2013.12-yocto1.5 branch after trying the master branch just in case it was a stability issue but still the same problem. Some more info that might be helpful but really makes me scratch my head is this. when I run MACHINE=am335x-evm bitbake u-boot I get these 3 specific errors ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'u-boot' ERROR: u-boot was skipped: incompatible with machine am335x-evm (not in COMPATIBLE_MACHINE) ERROR: u-boot-ti-staging PROVIDES u-boot but was skipped: Either UBOOT_MACHINE or UBOOT_CONFIG must be set in the am335x-evm machine configuration So I go and check sources/meta-ti/conf/machine/am335x-evm.conf which has no boot configuration but has require conf/machine/include/ti33x.inc then I check that file to find this PREFERRED_PROVIDER_u-boot = u-boot-ti-staging PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = linux-ti-staging UBOOT_MACHINE = am335x_evm_config Also when I check sources/meta-ti/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-ti-staging_3.12.bb I find this KERNEL_DEVICETREE_ti33x = am335x-evm.dtb am335x-evmsk.dtb am335x-bone.dtb am335x-boneblack.dtb COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = ti33x|ti43x|omap-a15 Does this have anything to do with Device Tree in the newer kernels and is just ignoring the configs? or am I just missing something?

[beagleboard] Re: Trouble enabling i2c-2 in mainline uBoot for BeagleBone Black
W dniu sobota, 22 marca 2014 01:19:58 UTC+1 użytkownik Joshua Datko napisał: I am trying to enable the i2c-2 bus in mainline uBoot and having problems. I am building a cape that has a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) on pins P9_19/20, i2c-2. Using some creative wiring, when I connect the cape to i2c-1, everything works fine. I added this in /board/ti/am225x/mux.c: static struct module_pin_mux i2c2_pin_mux[] = { {OFFSET(uart1_ctsn), (MODE(3) | RXACTIVE | PULLUDEN | SLEWCTRL)}, /* I2C_DATA */ {OFFSET(uart1_rtsn), (MODE(3) | RXACTIVE | PULLUDEN | SLEWCTRL)}, /* I2C_SCLK */ {-1}, }; In enable_board_pin_mux, I put the following before any of the ifs: configure_module_pin_mux(i2c2_pin_mux); and added a puts after to ensure it was getting hit. When I break in uboot and try to switch to i2c-2, the BBB resets as follows: U-Boot# i2c dev 2 Setting bus to 2 data abort pc : [9f7745c4] lr : [9f7745bc] sp : 9f637dc0 ip : fp : 9f638598 r10: 9f7a7680 r9 : 9f637f28 r8 : 000186a0 r7 : 0001 r6 : 9f7a47d4 r5 : 000186a0 r4 : 0001 r3 : 002c r2 : 0001 r1 : 0002 r0 : 4819c000 Flags: nZCv IRQs off FIQs on Mode SVC_32 Resetting CPU ... I'm not quite sure where to go from here. It appears, to me, that uBoot has an issue with i2c-2 and any help would be appreciated. I *could* switch the TPM over to i2c-1 but I'd rather not change the hardware unless using i2c-2 is impossible for some reason in uBoot. You should also enable clock for i2c-2 bus. I have done this by adding: writel(PRCM_MOD_EN, cmper-i2c2clkctrl); while (readl(cmper-i2c2clkctrl) != PRCM_MOD_EN) ; And I have used spi0_sclk and spi0_d0 for my i2c2 bus. But on my beaglebone black based board I keep getting: timed out in wait_for_pin: I2C_STAT=0 error all the time for i2c probe command. The same bootloader works correctly with original BBB, The only difference on my board is missing EEPROM.

[beagleboard] Re: QT5 eglfs problem on embedded linux (TI am355x evm starter kit)
Hi Dennis, basically I copied mkspecs/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ to mkspecs/linux-arm-gnueabihf-g++ and then modified mkspecs/linux-arm-gnueabihf-g++/qmake.conf in order to point to my cross-compilation tool-chain (the one included in TI AM335x EVM SDK 6.00.00). Then I made: ./configure -prefix /opt/qt5 -opensource -confirm-license -platform linux-g ++ -no-icu -no-cups -no-nis -no-dbus -no-glib -no-pch -no-accessibility -no-gtkstyle -no-xcb -eglfs -no-directfb -xplatform linux-arm-gnueabihf-g++ -opengl es2 -nomake examples -nomake tests -v Then: make make install I haven't do anything special about SGX drivers, using the stock one provided by TI pre-built images. Do you think that I should recompile somehow SGX drivers? Why? Then I just setup QT Creator for using my just-built QT version with the toolchain coming from TI SDK. Then on the target board I launch the application simply exporting the following variables: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/qt5/lib export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/opt/qt5/lib/plugins and then I launch my application (testapp) specifying the QPA backend to be used: $ ./testapp -platform eglfs That's it!

[beagleboard] Running debian from internal BBB flash
Hi all, I have managed to get my BBB running Debian unstable from a plugin 8G micro SD card. After installing everything I currently need, this external micro SD card is currently only 16% full. My understanding is that the internal Flash of the BBB is 2G which suggests that I should be able to transfer my current install from the external micro SD card to the internal Flash. Is this correct? If so, how can I do this?

The differentiation between the DM3730 and DM3725 is that the DM3725 does not have a 3D graphics accelerator.

A few clarifications please. Simple Answers are Yes most probably. But I'd like someone else to confirm as well. Can I use every single piece of code (DSP/BIOS link, DSPlib, SYS/Bios, etc) with the label OMAP3530 with DM3730? yes To my knowledge, the one huge thing one should look out for is environment variable changes in uboot. Everything goes into boot.scr. No saveenv. that isn't dependant on the omap, but the memory put on top Anything that comes to your mind that I should look out for? Like memory mapping changes. Device I/O Anything? no, it's the same Especially related to GPIO, SPI driver, Angstrom/QT4-Embedded and the methods to establish a DSP-ARM link(DSP/BIOS link, C6run, etc) Cause I'll be using these in the project I'm working on.

[beagleboard] Connection to Display doesn't work properly
Hi so I just got my beaglebone black today and when i connect it to a display the display shows a picture of a dog and the words beaglebone black for a few seconds. then the display doesn't receive any more information from the beaglebone and goes to sleep mode. i installed the newest angström distribution on the beaglebone but still i can't get the gnome desktop to be displayed on my screen. the only thing that did change was that for a fraction of a second after the picture of a dog there was some white on black text wich i couldn't read so fast, before the display went to sleep. the following times i rebooted the board only the picture appeared again, not followed by the text. can anyone tell me how to solve this? thanks -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Re: [beagleboard] BBB as a router w/ firewall capabilities
I've setup my home with a BBB acting as a firewall/router. With the 3.12 kernel, I had problems in high data-volume situations (3+MB/s DL according to my download managers). ksoftirqd would start taking up all the processor and then my packets would be dropped. After upgrading to the 3.13 kernel... this problem was abated. ksoftirqd rarely goes above 30% now. Still, I wouldn't put 150 users' data through a BBB. Im a bit curious about what changed in the 3.13 kernel to give me such a performance boost.

The BBB has more than enough CPU power, RAM might become a factor with that many users with a lot of rules. LEAF has an ARM port for Rpi. I don't recall if it's in main or not. I would think the same hurdles would apply here for that number of users. Seems to me for the money a Sokeris (sp?) board or something similar might be more appropriate. My 2 cents worth anyway.

[beagleboard] Help with PRU on Beaglebone Black
Hello all, I'm trying to get the PRU on the BBB working. I want to use it to drive two pairs of 4 select lines for a couple analog multiplexer/demultiplexers. I've followed the instructions here with no success: http://www.element14.com/community/community/knode/single-board_computers/next-gen_beaglebone/blog/2013/05/22/bbb--working-with-the-pru-icssprussv2 This is my device tree file: /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = ti,beaglebone, ti,beaglebone-black; part-number = BB-BONE-PRU; version = 00A0; exclusive-use = P8.39, P8.40, P8.41, P8.42, P8.43, P8.44, P8.45, P8.46, pruss; fragment@0 { target = am33xx_pinmux; __overlay__ { pru_wcsp_pins: wcsp_select_lines { pinctrl-single,pins = 0xA0 0x05 // P8:45 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_0) 0xA4 0x05 // P8:46 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_1) 0xA8 0x05 // P8:43 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_2) 0xAC 0x05 // P8:44 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_3) 0xB0 0x05 // P8:41 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_4) 0xB4 0x05 // P8:42 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_5) 0xB8 0x05 // P8:39 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_6) 0xBC 0x05 // P8:40 (pr1_pru1_pru_r30_7) ; }; }; }; fragment@1 { target = ocp; __overlay__ { dh_helper: helper { compatible = bone-pinmux-helper; pinctrl-names = default; pinctrl-0 = pru_wcsp_pins; status = okay; }; }; }; }; Since the pins I need conflict with the EMMC and the HDMI outputs, I've used the kernel command line option capemgr.disable_partno to prevent them from being loaded. The PRU mapping appears to work using the TI library, but nothing whatsoever happens at the outputs.

[beagleboard] Can't flash debian on beaglebone black
I am trying to flash debian to my beaglebone black. I am using this image, BeagleBone Black (eMMC flasher) from http://beagleboard.org/latest-images/. I successfully write the image to the sdcard, put it into the beaglebone black, power on while holding button and release once I see all 4 leds light up. The instructions say that it can take up to 45 min. I let the first one go for over an hour and eventually unplugged and tried again. This time I let it go almost 1.25 hours and still no 4 solid LEDS. I confirmed by removing the sdcard and attempting to boot. When the sdcard is in there I can connect an ethernet cable and ssh into the machine. During the flash the USR2 and USR0 LEDS are flashing showing activity. What am I doing wrong? I did this about a month ago no problem but I messed around with my distro too much and had to reinstall. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Availability - how come nobody has any BeagleBone Black to sell?
Hi Robert, I'm not expecting any help/support from you on this, but here is some additional info you may find interesting. :-) a) I haven't tried contacting Seeed about this. I did look around for a contact at Embest and I found a forum (http://www.embest-tech.cn/community/forum.php) and a way to file a support ticket (http://www.embest-tech.com/ticket/index.php). The forum is all Chinese. I spent some time looking at google-translated posts there hoping to find the magic fix, without luck. I suppose the next step will be to file a support ticket about it. b) The Embest BBB I received has the AM3359. I noticed that the element 14 website says their Embest BBB has the AM3358. This may not be relevant to my Ubuntu boot issue, but it seemed interesting. c) When I boot the Embest BBB and watch the console output, it ends like this: Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 gpio: pin 53 (gpio 53) value is 1 mmc0 is current device micro SD card found mmc0 is current device gpio: pin 54 (gpio 54) value is 1 SD/MMC found on device 0 reading uEnv.txt 1204 bytes read in 3 ms (391.6 KiB/s) Loaded environment from uEnv.txt Importing environment from mmc ... Running uenvcmd ... reading zImage 3669712 bytes read in 420 ms (8.3 MiB/s) reading initrd.img 3005004 bytes read in 345 ms (8.3 MiB/s) reading /dtbs/am335x-boneblack.dtb 24884 bytes read in 9 ms (2.6 MiB/s) Wrong Ramdisk Image Format Ramdisk image is corrupt or invalid gpio: pin 55 (gpio 55) value is 1 ** File not found /boot/uImage ** But I can literally pop that same SD card out and put it in my BBB model A6 and it boots fine. I googled around for the error messages near the end, and got a few hits, but nothing that made sense to me as a workaround or explanation of why it fails on the Embest BBB. d) I did some poking around in U-Boot. The version says this: U-Boot 2013.04-rc1-14237-g90639fe-dirty (Apr 13 2013 - 13:57:11) arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc (Linaro GCC 4.7-2013.02-01) 4.7.3 20130205 (prerelease) GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.22 Whereas the BBB A6 shows this for version: U-Boot 2013.04-dirty (Jul 10 2013 - 14:02:53) arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc (Linaro GCC 4.7-2013.02-01) 4.7.3 20130205 (prerelease) GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.22 So there is a difference on the first line, but otherwise the versions are the same. Also, both boards return the same thing for 'mmcinfo'.

Re: [beagleboard] Can no longer flash debian
Two other thoughts from days past. Make sure you are on DC and not USB, which I don't think is the issue here, and make sure the Ethernet is unplugged. I know on Angstrom Ethernet played havoc with flashing.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Availability - how come nobody has any BeagleBone Black to sell?
This sounds like the old original Embest board, the Clone. It is based on an older revision of the board, maybe A5. I can't remember. I don't think they ever built any Rev B boards. Supposedly the next version is Rev B based which would be AM3358.

That's the original April 2013 release. Right before i submitted a patch to Koen to fix u-boot. My Ubuntu/Debian images rely on at-least Angstrom's 2013.06.20 release to be flashed to eMMC. So as long as you hold down the boot botton on power up, it should still default to the bootloader on the microSD card. Wow, that's such an old and broken default image..

[beagleboard] Debian boot - need a little help
I burned the debian 7.4 3-37 image to SD. I am using a 5V supply and HDMI and wireless keyboard and mouse. It boots. I see the penguin. I get the login prompt. seconds later all disappears. It looks like HDMI is still active but no video. If I am quick I can type in a username so I know the keyboard is working. Any ideas? Does DEbian come up with an SSH port? I can't seem to find a DHCP entry in my router. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

[beagleboard] Re: Debian boot - need a little help
OK I will answer my own question here at least partially. Since I do not need HDMI and I want to go headless anyhow I logged in using USB. I then went into the /etc/network/interfaces file and found that the eth0 lines were commented out. So that is why I had no Ethernet connection. I added a static IP definition and rebooted. All is well now for Ethernet login on port 22.
