[beagleboard] Re: Beaglelogic with Linux beaglebone 4.9.36-ti-r46 #1

2018-09-03 Thread dlf
Hello,

I think I had a bad / legacy bootloader on the emmc.   I cleared it out and 
booted from the SD Card and it worked.
There is another "google groups" dedicated to Beaglelogic, but it is very 
quiet.  Kumar Abhishek is the "owner" of this group so maybe check over 
there

cheers

Hi - just to report back, I've sorted this out and the 4.9.36-ti-r46 #1 
release is working with Beaglelogic.

it turns out I had some old crap in my bootloader that was not zero'd out 
properly.

[beagleboard] Beaglelogic with Linux beaglebone 4.9.36-ti-r46 #1

2017-08-11 Thread DLF
Hello,

Is anyone with a Beaglelogic using the 4.9.36-ti-r46 #1 ?.   

I've followed the instructions/image from Abishek on 
https://beaglelogic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html but I can't get it 
to work.

Following the troubleshooting section on the "readthedocs" site everything 
checks out okay also.  As far a I can tell the pins are not being Mux'd at 
all, but I don't know where to go next(novice user) .  I've zero'd my emmc 
so I'm sure I'm running from the SD card.

I've been successful with an older version 
(bone-debian-8.4-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-04-10-4gb.img) but would like to 
upgrade.

I don't mind to raise an issue for Abishek in git but I just wanted to see 
if there is something else to try beforehand or if someone can confirm it 
is working.

I've made a posting over on the Beaglelogic group but it is a little lonely 
over there...

Hello,

I did this a while ago using DD which should give you an exact copy of your 
SD card ...but you need to be careful with DD.

I made some notes here but you may need to adjust for your needs.

I played with this a while ago.  A lot depends on which firmware you are 
running.

http://dumb-looks-free.blogspot.fr/2015/12/beaglebone-black-bbb-uart2-with-esp8266.html

should be some other examples via google - it is not real specific to BBB

[beagleboard] Re: Problem enabling SPI and UARTs (4.5 kernel)

2016-02-25 Thread DLF
yes - it sounds like the problem...

from William's blog, I'd look at this part
 
$ sudo apt-get install git
$ git clone https://github.com/beagleboard/bb.org-overlays
$ cd bb.org-overlays/
$ ./dtc-overlay.sh
$ sudo ./install.sh

and then check that the overlays in /lib/firmware are current.

BTW, backup any data before following my comments

cheers

[beagleboard] What is special about SPI0 ?

2016-02-23 Thread DLF
 

Hello,

I was working a DT Overlay for my touchscreen and ran to issues trying to 
load it.

It can successfully load it via 
cape_enable=bone_capemgr.enable_partno=BB-ADS7846 (so I know the overlays 
works)  but I don't get the same results (not working) via the command 
line.  Investigating this further I noticed similar points with the SPI0 
(BB-SPIDEV0-00A0.dts) and discovered it not setting the pin mux via the 
command line as I would expect.  (SPIDEV0 also works via capemgr in 
uEnv.txt)


I'm using the bog-standard BB-SPIDEV0-00A0.dts overlay from 
bb.org-overlays/src/arm. Everything else looks like it is working properly 
in dmesg.


I can move forward using bone_capemgr.enable in uEnv.txt so this is not a 
critical issue but more a point of understanding what is going on (or not, 
as the case may be) and efficiency. I've googled around but could not find 
anything related to the newer 4.x kernels.


Thanks in advance for any clues or assistance.

Hello and thanks for your reply.

dmesg showed there was a conflict with the pins and cat 
/sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/44e10800.pinmux/pingroups showed the conflict 
wiht nxp_hdmi_bonelt_pins

I changed my /boot/uEnv.txt to disable HDMI:
##BeagleBone Black: HDMI (Audio/Video) disabled:
dtb=am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb

and it is now working.  thanks again for your support.

[beagleboard] BBB UART2 loopback test

2015-12-25 Thread DLF
 

Hello and happy holidays to everyone,


I’ve been trying to use the UART on my BBB and I’m having some trouble to 
figure out why it is not working.  To test I have a jumper line between 
P9.21<=>P9.22 and using a loopback test.  The first Putty session (cat 
/dev/ttyO2)does not respond with any “output”. I thought this would be 
easier and my google searches indicate this should work.


root@beaglebone:~# uname -r && cat /etc/dogtag

2: PF  -1

3: PF  -1

4: P-O-L-   0 Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-UART2


root@beaglebone:~# ls /dev/ttyO*

/dev/ttyO0  /dev/ttyO2


*Terminal 1:*

many thanks for any assistance.

I gave up on USB cameras about a year when I read this

... partially because it was beyond me, but also because it appeared to be

There are other threads in the Google groups about USB cameras on the BBB -

   - is the SD card good/formated properly before copying the image
   - good connection around sd card/holder

 If I try without the debug cable, the lights will flash for hours  (i let

 sitting in the regular angstrom ui (forgive me I don't know the name off

 I WAS able to flash the latest Angstrom initially with no issues.  So I

 Anyway, thanks for the input.

This is not really a BBB issue so you might not find the support you need.

from what I can tell you only have a warning and it can be ignored.

you are have the output set to a file out.avi.  Does it exist?

maybe check the ffmpeg site for help. 

I use mplayer instead  so if you want you could try ...

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mplayer
sudo apt-get install v4l-utils
mplayer tv:// -tv

[beagleboard] Re: Cannot flash latest Debian image to eMMC

Hello,

The normal sequence is (S2 button not pushed):

   - MC1 (eMMC on-board flash), MMC0 (SD card), UART0, USB0

S2 button pushed:

   -  SPI0, MMC0 (SD card), USB0, UART0

so ...  try flashing without the serial debug cable

good luck

 I have tried several times, leaving the board for 30 mins to well over 1

  been a while since i had to format an SD card from scratch for my

couple questions. 

  reading here: 


 https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black#BeagleBoneBlack-SetupmicroSD/SDcard
  

and first question is, why is there no need to create and format a 
VFAT partition? from memory, i would always create a small, initial 
VFAT partition and put MLO and uboot there, and format the rest of 
 the 
SD card as ext? for the rootfs. 

  but the instructions on that page don't create an initial VFAT 
partition, they just raw copy MLO and u-boot.img to exact addresses 
 on 
the freshly-zeroed SD card. i had no idea you could do this. or am 
 i 
misreading something? 
   
   It's a feature of the omap4+ bootrom. (omap35/36xx can't do it).  We 
   had users deleting MLO/u-boot.img in that fat partition so we started 
   looking for a way to better protect that. 
   
   Ps.. the bootloader does a lot more internally now too, so we can 
 have 
   simplified /boot/uEnv.txt script... 
   
 which rev of the BBB does that relate to? i'm still using rev B. 
  
  Any image after August 2014 (cat /etc/dogtag) 
  
  Defaults to a boot loader that does: 
  /boot/uEnv.txt  /boot/vmlinuz-${uname -r} 
  
  Either September or October 2014, we switched to MLO/u-boot.img being 
 dd*'ed... 

   sorry, i phrased that question badly. obviously, i can always 
 upgrade u-boot on my rev B, but i assume there was a point in the 
 recent past where the onboard bootrom could handle the dd'ed 
 MLO/u-boot.img, and that's *not* something i could update. 

   given that my BBBs were purchased a while back, i suspect i don't 
 have that feature in the bootrom. eh, time to pick up some rev Cs.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day

2014-10-14 Thread DLF
Hello,

I'm kind of a noob but willing to help investigate if needed.  

I once had random reboots and traced it to an overheating problem.  I don't 
know if log files trap overheating messages or not.  I had a blocked vent 
and once it was cleared, no probem.

On a second point, my BBB is stable running 3.14.17-ti-r15.  If you make an 
image send it to me, I could load it on my side and see if it crashes or 
not.  If it crashes, it sounds like software.  If it does not crash, it 
could be hardware (QA?) or environment related (EM?). - As I said, I am a 
noob, so perhaps this could be a waste of your time.

cheers,

[beagleboard] Re: Allowable current through BBB's P9_5 and P9_6?

2014-06-09 Thread DLF
Hello,
Section 8.5.1 in the SRM has a good table that should give you what you 
need.

Main Board Power 
Table 14
describes the voltages from the main board that are available on the 
expansion connectors and their ratings. All voltages are supplied by 
connector 
http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1685587.pdf

 Hi all,

 Could someone knowledgable tell me how much current can be supplied to the 
 BBB through its P9_5 and P9_6 pins (VDD_5V)?

 Many thanks,

[beagleboard] Re: Unable to access PWM from userspace on BBB

2014-05-31 Thread DLF
Hello,

I'm not really an expert, but the information I've picked up from reading 
various post is that not all kernels have full PWM support.  Are you on 
Ubuntu?

If your are missing period and duty then it is possible the Kernel was 
compiled without the flag CONFIG_EHRPWM_TEST.

I'm not sure about the fix, but I think you might need to recompile and 
uncomment the CONFIG_EHRPWM_TEST defconfig.

there are some clues in the posts above.

good luck,

 I'm not sure what that means in terms of your book, but given that you are

 book.  Once you get a footing, jump over to Debian.

 I'm no expert but maybe a package is missing in Angstrom for the Atlantic

 sudo opkg update
 sudo opkg install tzdata-canada

 Angstrom-Cloud9-IDE-GNOME-eglibc-ipk-v2012.12-beaglebone-2013.09.05.img

 In both cases, the board boots, and it shows the beaglebone logo image for 
 a few seconds and a login ASCII screen, but then, the HDIM video is off.

 I can access the board via Serial cable (FTDI), but is seems the HDMI 
 video is disabled. 

 When booting from the eMMC with the original build from manufacturing, the 
 video works fine on that same board, so there is no HDMI cable, power 
 issues.

 Any idea how to enable the HDMI video when using the latest Angtrom build 
 booting from microSD card
