Learn systemd and be done with it. Keep following the wiki page I sent
you and read all pages it links to..

You will get what you want if you keep playing with it. You're not far
from success

 Im working with the 6-17 machinekit image on elinux.org
 http://elinux.org on my BBB running the xenomai kernel and I am
 having a hell of a time getting things to autostart, specifically
 x11vnc. 

 Ive been able to get this to work with raspberry pi and in ubuntu,
 but no matter what I have tried or what tutuorial I follow I cant
 seem to get anything to autostart on the BBB. 

 Is anyone using a VNC server that they can give me the script and
 setup process they are using? The directions I followed most
 recently are these and still no luck:

 There are several ways of doing this, but here is my preferred way
 (as root):

 -create a password file using “x11vnc -storepasswd
 password_file” and provide your password, then chmod 600
 password_file to avoid anyone reading it but root,

 -create the following in /etc/init/x11vnc.conf (make sure you
 replace the ..., from the script details below, with the
 correct information):

 start on login-session-start
 script
 x11vnc -xkb -noxrecord -noxfixes -noxdamage
 -repeat -display :0 -auth/var/run/lightdm/root/:0 -forever -shared 
 -bg -o /var/log/x11vnc.log -rfbauthpassword_file_plus_path -rfbport 5900 
 -allow
 ip_address
 end script

 Now let’s see some of the options used above (and it has a lot of
 them http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/x11vnc_opts.html):

 -xkb will allow better clipboard interactions in my experience,

 -repeat is allowing keyboard repeating keys (most annoying
 thing when it doesn’t work),

 -forever means even if you disconnect from your session,
 x11vnc will still be alive,

 -shared means several users may be connected at the same time
 (use this only if you plan to connect multiple users
 simultaneously to it),

 -allow enables to restrict the machines that will be able to
 connect to vnc, remember, vnc is an open door to your machine
 (I removed this for my linux PC).

 Reboot. You should be able to connect on the default port 5900
 after that.

I dont use Debian but on Arch once I setup a systemd service file it
starts on boot as expected for me. Been doing this for well over a year

You need to just chill out and take a deep breath its no ones fault you
wasted time but your own. Just cause the Rpi does X out of the box
does not make the BBB a POS means PEBKAC 99.9% of the time. How is
anyone ever supposed to help you if you hate being asked have you tried
this or that, no one can read your mind or guess WTF you even have
attempted? Its not like you really laid out what you tried and have not
tried. Shit happens accept it and find a solution or move on thats open
source, no one but yourself is to blame if YOU wasted YOUR companies
money. Like Robert I have no issues on my OSX 10.9 box though I rarely
ever use it cause I just hate apple products. If you are experienced as
you say then stop the ranting and ask a real question where you lay out
what you tried and all the info you think is relevant so others can
actually try and help, frustration or not dont take it out on people who
make no money off helping YOU with YOUR problem. This attitude is going
to get you no where and shocked Robert has entertained your emails this
long. No one is under obligation to figure out YOUR problems but they
just might if you actually were not on a tyrannical rant. If you hate
these so much return all the POS crap you bought and go have fun with
that pi, then realize all the BS hype that surrounds that platform.

 Pretty much all kernel startup options can be used similarly. So for

 boot . . .

 **cmdline=quiet consolbank=0 *ipv6.disable=1*

 This would of course use init ( SYSV )for the init daemon as no path

 disable ipv6 system wide I believe.

 Anyway, I'm not an expert with Linux boot params, but I have used both
 **consolbank=0 *ipv6.disable=1 *, and they do work. Also, some params
 are platform / hardware specific, so may not work on all hardware
 platforms.

 Subject: [beagleboard] Qt 5.4 on BBB OpenGL: Linux is dead
 after execute examples. Keyboard and mouse have no response.

 Hello everyone

 I’m new on Qt on arm linux. I’m trying to cross
 compile the newest version Qt 5.4 for Beaglebone
 Black(BBB). I think I almost successed because I
 finished configure and make of Qt 5.4 based on root
 file system on BBB. When I try to run an example, the
 GUI shows up but the linux is dead and there is no
 response from keyboard and mouse. The only thing I can
 do is to reset BBB. Could someone help me with this
 problem? I will describe my steps as follow:

 1. Build Ubuntu SD card

 For this step, I followed the following website:
 _https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black_

 Kernel version:
 Linux arm 3.18.0-bone1 #1 Mon Dec 8 23:08:59 EST 2014
 armv71 armv71 armv71 GNU/Linux

 Root file system:
 Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS

 Cross compiler:
 arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc (crosstool-NG
 linaro-1.13.1-4.9-2014.09 – Linaro GCC 4.9-2014.09)
 4.9.2 20140904 (prerelease)

 The SD card just works fine.

 2. Build and install SGX driver
 Also, I followed the SGX part of the following website
 _https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black_

 The demo program OGLES2ChameleonMan works fine.

 3. Build Qt 5.4
 (1) Download Qt 5.4 source
 qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.4.0.tar.gz
 _http://download.qt-project.org/archive/qt/5.4/5.4.0/single/_

 (2) Configure Qt 5.4
 copy the newest cross compiler library to root file
 system (otherwise the configure has errors)

 1.
 sudo cp -r some
 
 dir/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.9-2014.09_linux/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc/*

I second that use ALARM if you need up to date features in your software
and dont want to have to deal with installing or upgrading to a new
release install once be done. Always up to date, the benefits only grow
the more you get into using them. ALARM is as stable or even more so
than Ubuntu/Debian and you dont get all the BS layers and cruft and
their developers deciding what you should run on boot and all that fun
stuff.

If you are use to Ubuntu be prepared for a shock and read the arch linux
wiki. 99.99% of what you need is there.

per the website Debian is the official distro. I personally run Arch

As to your no X on whatever image, that could have been easily solved
installing the desktop of your choice. Pretty much everything you asked

 I have put a link to it into init.d and used update-rc to make it

 The problem is that it doesnt always work. Im not sure either it
 is running in the background or not, because when i use ps command
 i dont see the script running and even though the power button
 works. So lets say every 3rd power up the power button doesnt
 work... Im not sure whats the case. I would also aprichiate if
 someone told me either this is the proper way of handling the
 power button in the official bigger image.

Re: [beagleboard] Wireless mesh networking

[Don deJuan]

On 09/28/2014 04:29 PM, George Lu wrote:
 Hi Brian,

 I had evaluated babel, OLSR, and Batman-adv two years ago on a test
 network of 5 beaglebones to demonstrate wifi mesh networking. I
 concluded Batman-adv was the one to explore further. I was using
 Robert Nelson's ubuntu (3.2 kernel) on beaglebone white then. I had
 tried three different long range wifi dongles from Alpha. The black
 one
 (http://www.amazon.com/Alfa-AWUS036NHA-Wireless-Adaptor-Compatible/dp/B004Y6MIXS)
 has Atheros ar9271 chipset and has the best kernel support on
 Beaglebone. The more common model is based on realtek rtl8192cu
 chipset. Back then rtl8192cu driver on arm was not anywhere near
 ready. I would still strongly prefer AR9271 based wifi dongle today. I
 had to use a USB Y-cable to make sure there is sufficient current
 during boot time to power up the wifi dongle. BB only has a USB host
 port, so this was a bit inconvenient. I resorted to tie the 5V and GND
 lines of the USB to a 5V supply to ensure smooth boot. 

 With a 14 omnidirectional antenna and tx-power cranked up full, I was
 able to sustain decent connectivity at ~300 meter per hop during field
 demonstration. 

 For batman-adv, I configured every node's bat0 interface on
 192.168.50.x subnet. (wlan0 has its own static address assignment in
 /etc/network/interfaces)
  
 When starting a mesh node, a startbatman.sh is called that has the
 following:
 modprobe batman-adv
 ifconfig wlan0 mtu 1528
 batctl if add wlan0
 ifconfig bat0 192.168.50.218 up
 batctl gw client
 ip route del default
 ip route add default via 192.168.50.1

 On the node serving as gateway through its eth0, I had the additional
 lines for Network Address Translation.
 sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
 iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface eth0 -j
 MASQUERADE
 iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface bat0 -j ACCEPT

 You could add an @reboot line in /etc/crontab that calls your
 startbatman.sh on reboot every time.

 I have not updated this since the switch to 3.8 kernel, but I am
 pretty sure it would work on the current Debian image. I would
 recommend you use the 3.14 kernel to benefit from the more reliable USB.

 Hi all,

 I am interested in setting up a wireless mesh network using a
 collection of BBBs (and possibly other devices).  Does anyone have
 experience setting up a wireless mesh network using BBB?

 I am not really interested in a so-called wireless distribution
 system that is used to extend an SSID across a wide area using
 wireless mesh networking.  I am much more interested in setting up
 a network of cooperating nodes that talk with each other (and to
 the internet via a gateway/mesh portal connected simultaneously to
 the internet and the mesh).

 In particular, I'm interested in:

   * What distro and kernel are you using?
   * Ideally this would be with one of RCNs Debian images, but
 if not, I'm interested in what you might have used.
   * If you have done something with a Linux based system other
 than a BBB, I'd like to know about that too.
   * What mesh routing protocol was used?  Batman, Babel/AHCP,
 HWMP, OLSR, ...
   * Steps to configure the mesh network and gateway.
   * Did you use 802.11s?  If so, presumably using the 802.11s
 support in the kernel?
   * WiFi chipset that was used (presumably supporting mesh mode). 
 SOFTMAC or HARDMAC?

 I have researched the topic fairly extensively and can probably
 set something up via trial and error myself.  Prior to diving into
 that, I wanted to see if anyone has already done some work with
 wireless mesh networking and BBB (or something else) and would be
 willing to share their experience and knowledge!

 Thanks in advance.

 Cheers,

 ba

If you're on ALARM and you did not setup udev to give the old interface
names you will need to get the actual interface name such as wlp10s0

The arch wiki will serv you best especially if you're not familiar with
Arch. Arch is not Debian, its is not a lazy mans OS.

 /Ours is all in python and php with darkhttpd as the

 ruby gems are. /

 And this is why there is no easy guide. At least from a programing
 aspect.  No two people are going to agree on how it should be
 done, and what is used to get it done.

 Nodejs does however get a bad rap I think. The stigma of
 javascript comes with it. Which is its self often misunderstood.
 Nothing is perfect however . . .

 I agree with you William; however, php and darkhttpd don't scale very
 well, because it lacks asynchronous I/O capability. Also, the current
 spec'd Javascript is pretty close to the more perfect language
 compared to C, Java or Python. It also has the biggest user base of
 any language, by far and it is the only true language that works in
 all browsers and on the server. BTW, there are no bad parts, just bad
 programmers.

 that C is a possibility as well.

  You need to find and read sources about embedded Linux.
 Then, since your
  project could be done using any number of languages,
 you need to figure
  that out too. Past that, you're going to have to figure
 out what hardware
  you're going to use. Which will indicate if you're
 using SPI. I2C, UART,
  onboard ADC's or PWM's etc.
 
  In your shoes, I'd start off with and continue using
 these instructions:
  https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black.
 You can use either
  Debian or Ubuntu with these build instructions. I've
 been using these

 And this is why there is no easy guide. At least
 from a programing aspect.  No two people are going
 to agree on how it should be done, and what is
 used to get it done.

 Nodejs does however get a bad rap I think. The
 stigma of javascript comes with it. Which is its
 self often misunderstood. Nothing is perfect
 however . . .

 I agree with you William; however, php and darkhttpd
 don't scale very well, because it lacks asynchronous
 I/O capability. Also, the current spec’d Javascript is
 pretty close to the more perfect language compared to
 C, Java or Python. It also has the biggest user base
 of any language, by far and it is the only true
 language that works in all browsers and on the server.
 BTW, there are no bad parts, just bad programmers.

 John

 Well, the obvious choice to me is Nodejs, and
 am betting since this person has 35 years
 experience in related fields, that C is a
 possibility as well.

I actually have done a similar control for aeroponics room setups. We
are releasing it public in roughly a month once the boards come back and
we finish testing on the new hardware run.

Very easily can be adapted to greenhouse control as I am sure you're
after the same things, water, temp, humidity, vpd, ph, ppm, disolved
oxygen, dew point, flood detection, co2, lumens/lux, uvb, darkness light
leak detection and all the rest of the goodness for optimal
environmental control. Even the cooling opener could be adjusted/adapted
to fit to automate opening roof panels.

Ours is all in python and php with darkhttpd as the webserver. I dispise
nodejs, it reminds me of the cluster that ruby gems are.

Enjoy never reinstalling a new release version again and many more
wondrous things and having to hack things back to how you want them or
endlessly compiling cause X is out of date which ends up causing issues

 added some text to it 

 mmcdev=1

 bootpart=1:2

 mmcroot=/dev/mmcblk1p2 ro

 optargs=quiet

  

 And named it uEnv.txt

 Now my BBB sees it as sda1. I was able to mount it to /media by making
 a directory under it and then mounted it.

  

 Question: How do I now use this mounted sda1?  I tried ftp upload to
 it but I get permission denied.

 William,like I said every search I do is not helping - and I do alot

 I think you misunderstand, I appreciate how important GitHub is and
 more importantly the effort people put in to create the code. If I
 didn't I wouldn't be referencing it. I had already managed to get the
 project out etc. The issue I have is the large jump from code to
 building a kernel with modification, ensuring it is built  with the
 correct components etc and ensuring that every subsequent C project I
 write can pick up and use the new library.. I think you have perhaps
 forgotten how long it takes to learn or you did it incrementally.
 There is alot of it and it is very daunting - wonder how many people
 have been put off by the scale or the attitude.

 Get used to it, this is the way it will always be. For some
 reason, Linux users seem to be incredibly lazy, or really bad at
 communicating instructions. Sure, not all the time, just most of
 the time. I suggest that you make a Debian VM, and start learning
 . . . Also while you're at it, you *DO* need to learn git. git is
 far more useful than you  seem to realize. Start using goolge, and
 go to town.

 Remember, *you* are the one who needs to learn these things. So it
 is your own responsibility to learn / figure out various things.
 It will get easier / better with time and experience.

 There are a few sub projects within it. I specifically want to
 add the ISO-TP protocol to my beaglebone project so I guess
 this means building it into the kernel - I don't believe this
 is a released part of the SocketCAN driver as standard yet. I
 am using Debian as my OS.

 The problem is every search I do on the subject assumes I know
 how to use github and how to compile the parts of the kernel I
 need and what I do with the output. There is no step by step
 guide - this does not make it easy for people that are new to
 Linux. 

 Also I guess if I add functionality to the kernel I would need
 to update header files etc to use these features.

 If I use a cross compiler on a windows pc (or a linux pc for
 that matter) do I need to build drivers/libraries there as well ?

 Thanks in advance to anyone that can explain

 On each BeagleBone Black, one of the WiFi antenna is configured

 via the access point.

 The result is that the mobile devices can get associated to the
 access point and access a web server in the ad-hoc network.
  
 However, the mobile device of Access Point 1 (AP1) is not able to
 communicate with the mobile devices of Access Point 2 (AP2).

 I have add in the route of the subnet of mobile devices of AP2 in
 AP1 and vice versa.

 Did anyone has experience in configuring ad-hoc network together
 with access point on a single BeagleBone Black?

 Is it possible?

 Thank you.

  The two I'm looking at are image based updates, or debian apt based

 1. image based with two kernel partitions, two rootfs partitions.
  Download an unpack new kernel and rootfs to unused partitions and
 then modify u-boot.
 2. use debian apt repo's + custom repo's.  this sounds interesting,
 would have to read up on deb packaging and dependencies.

 Any thoughts on these, other interesting strategies?

lol ok. Well wonder how all those other projects managed to do it with
super small teams and no project funding and became as successful and
huge as they have, most starting with 1-2 people. To me its a step back
using kickstarter or indiegogo for something like this and screams we
want to do this for ourselves but will only do so on someone else's
dime. Not sure why the only thing you answered was in regards to your
funding plans. The rest of the questions were actually much more
important unless I have missed some post on the list where this is all
laid out for all to see.

What does this offer that proven open source solutions or their clones
do not currently, can you even compete with their solutions? Or are you
trying to reach a different market? What are you currently using to
prove this would even make a good cape ? Do you even have a rough
proto? Are you targeting fixed wing, multi, both or? How many flights
are you on already? What control algos? Are you going to be forking code
from the hard work of the other current solutions to jump start yours or?

Install arch linux arm on your BBB as opposed to running Debian. Then
install qt5 or qt4 or both

 Aswin: I'm actually not sure if the touchscreen works with the Qt5 
 installation yet.  The touchscreen is definitely functioning with the 
 image, but I haven't been able to do any tests yet.  If I can get it 
 working with OpenGL, I'll let you know.

 Ashwin: A lot of the errors you get in configuring Qt from source are 
 normal.  They just indicate that it tried to build those modules because 
 you didn't explicitly say to exclude them, but they don't exist.  You can 
 suppress them by passing -no arguments with the module that is giving you 
 the issue when configuring (i.e. -no-sql-mysql).  It doesn't matter much 
 because if everything else is still good, it will still configure 
 successfully and just disable those modules.

 Hi,

 I am facing the same problem too. However, missing gl2.h is not the only 
 error I am seeing. There are other similar errors for mysql.h, oci.h etc. 
 I am using a the kernel version that supports SGX and was able to run a 
 demo program. I do not see gl2.h anywhere in /usr/include directory. Please 
 update if you find out any solution.

 Thanks,

 Hey all,

 I’ve been googling around and searching for about 2 days now with no luck.

 I’m trying to cross-compile Qt5 (5.3.1 or 5.2.0) for the Beaglebone Black

 I haven’t been able to find any good sources to walk me through this 
 process.

 I’m using a Chipsee

  *[chipsee.com http://chipsee.com]* cape to have an LCD and capacitive 
 touch screen with it. Chipsee gives me several prebuilt images, including a 
 Debian, Angstrom, Android, and LinuxEZSDK images. It looks like the 
 linuxEZSDK and Angstrom images come with all the OpenGL libraries 
 pre-loaded. The LinuxEZSDK comes pre-configured with everything for Qt, but 
 it’s Qt4.8. You can find their repo of images here 
 http://www.chipsee.com/upload/BBB/*[chipsee.com http://chipsee.com]*.

 Right now I’ve been working with the LinuxEZSDK image to try and build 
 Qt5 from source and get it on there. I downloaded the linaro toolchain 
 https://launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-binaries/trunk/2013.04/+download/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2013.04-20130417_linux.tar.xz

 I mounted the SD card that countains the LinuxEZSDK in order to find the 
 OpenGL drivers and set the sysroot to /media/jay/rootfs, which is the root 
 of the OS. Configuring that gives me the following error:

 Thanks!


Just use arch linux arm for qt5 as your default.

 I am not able to Cross Compile qt5 for beagle-Board XM can any
 body help me with this regard?

 I've given up trying to cross compile qt5. Instead, I build qt5
 directly on the beagleboard. It takes a long time, but it does work.

 There are other things that bother me about this whole thing as well.

 Jason,

 Part of the trick to what you are suggesting is making people
 aware of the survey. There is also difficulty in interpreting
 it and asking the right questions. Perhaps more can be learned
 from the discourse that has already happened. 
  

 We need to run a survey. Questions like :

 Which board do you use ? White Black ? 


 We know Bone Black is the most popular. 
  

 Do you use more boards than Beagles ? Like Intel
 Galileo, raspberry pi ?
 What type of use you do, for yourself, to community,
 commercial ?
 Which license you use for your work ? BSD, GPL , Private ?
 Which language do you use ? C, C++, Python, Java?
 Do you develop a cape for Beagles ? If yes, what is the
 purpose?
 Do you agree to pay a small fee to the foundation ? If
 yes, what you expect in return ?


 This last part is most interesting to me. if we get organized,
 can we do things to improve the state of things for the community?

 Yes, my point is understand the current community and what we need .  

  

 If your return was : A very good documentation about
 Beagles. How To develop for beagles in any language that
 fits my needs. Do you agree that only people who paid the
 small fee should get access to documentation ?


 I'd like to avoid charging for bits and give time or atoms in
 exchange for money if you are trying to say what
 exclusively someone should get for paying a membership fee. 

 My point is who pays the server running the forum, wiki etc. Or
 this we already covered by another way ? 
  

  

 Would you like to join the foundation? 
 Do you would pay for that? If yes, how much?
 What do you miss in Beagles ? Library's to do your work ?
 A better Documentation ? Cheaper price for boards ? A
 Store to sell your cape ? A store to find all the capes
 that are develop for beagle. 

 This are a few questions that I have in mind. After we
 discover who we are, we can decide where to go.
 And you, what you think ? 


 if the information is kept open to the community, then I'd be
 fine with you running a survey. Not cool to collect data about
 Beaglers for private benefit. 

 Yes, of course. Anyone will be able to see the result.  

  


 Thanks
 Cheers

 Is this right or wrong ? Then if wrong, how do you deal with it ? I
 honestly do not know, but the more I think about it the more it seems
 like a lose - lose situation for everyone.

 There is also much more to consider. For example: Servers that provide
 documentation, working images, etc need to be paid for, and
 maintained. So who really needs to pay for this ?

 If you think about it, the people who need the documentation need to
 pay for it. However, even people working in / for a non profit
 organization can / do get paid.

 Not a very simple situation to consider is it ?

*If using with a Beagle Bone:* Because of the high power required by
WiFi, a 5V 2A power adapter is required
http://www.adafruit.com/products/276 to power both the Bone and WiFi.
Flaky behavior and crashes may result if this is not followed! We have a
tutorial for using this module with the Beagle Bone
http://learn.adafruit.com/beaglebone/wifi!

*If using with a Raspberry Pi:* The latest Wheezy distributions support
this module out-of-the-box. Also, the Adafruit Occidentalis distribution
http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-raspberry-pi-educational-linux-distro
has support built in. Check out our detailed tutorial for how to set up
WiFi networking on the Pi
http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruits-raspberry-pi-lesson-3-network-setup/overview
You may find that you need to have a powered hub to use this adapter, so
if you're having power flakiness with your Pi, try a hub!

The other is also stated as requiring high power from a quick google
search as well.

 I flashed Debian to the eMMC and it seems to be working fine. My plan

 So, my question is, in what directory do I save my index.html file in
 order to see it as the default page served by Apache? There are no

 Anyone know where I am going wrong?

 If a person can not figure this out on their own, they probably
 deserve to get rooted, or whatever else happens to them. Some would
 also argue removing root.

 Personally I would avoid apache2 unless absolutely necessary, as it is
 fairly large. But then again my own rootfs is only 137MB ( bare-fs )

 OK this does not work on Archlinux. Besides the fact
 Archlinux does not have initrd there must be some other issue
 holding it up. We are getting a serial connection hooked up
 to look at that.

 The answer about the only way was to remove a resistor is NOT
 a good answer. First of all it is not something you would do
 when distributing and image to be written on an SD card to a
 user. Hack your board so it works! No way.

 You asked for a solution that will work no matter what is on the
 eMMC. If you have u-boot on the eMMC, BBB will use it, period.
 No script or anything else for that matter will prevent this.
 Remove u-boot from the eMMC and BBB will use u-boot from the
 SDCard. With SYS_BOOT2 high (Boot not pressed), the boot sequence
 is MMC1 (eMMC), MMC0 (SDCard), UART0, USB0. If SYS_BOOT2 is low
 (Boot button pressed) the boot sequence is SPI0, MMC0, USB0, UART0. 

 Regards,
 John



 I would like to get this fixed but an easy answer would be to
 have a script that does a one time run of zeroing the eMMC on
 first boot of ArchLinux on the SD card. We have no reason to
 use the eMMC card in our application. I wish there was a HW
 switch or jumper on the BBB to disable it. That would make
 things much easier.

 So please don't go hacking your board, just nuke the code on
 the eMMC. It will then boot happily from the SD card.

 Hopefully we will find a better way so we won't have to do
 that. I will report back in a few days with any progress.

 Is there anything I can do on the SD card (boot record)

 Debian apparently has no problem with this. It seems to
 be an Archlinux issue.

 If therei s an answer please pass along the code or point

 It is u-boot default environment that loads the uEnv.txt file.
 uEnv.txt only augments the existing scripts already present in the
 u-boot environment. Nothing that you do to the uEnv.txt will prevent
 BBB from using the u-boot on the eMMC.

 I don't want to use the emmc. I want to boot from the microSD.
 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=1M count=16

 There, the bootloader on the eMMC will never get in the way again..

It should build could be a few different reasons its failing for you. If
I get time I will setup a deb install and see about compiling it. But it
for sure builds on Arch.

 To provide the best experience of using Debian on BeagleBone Black, we
 are connecting the switch-over to an increase in the on-board eMMC
 flash storage from 2GB to 4GB, leaving more free room in which you can
 work. The eMMC is faster and more reliable than micro-SD cards, so
 this is adding a lot of value---and a little bit of cost.

 These BeagleBone Blacks with Debian and 4GB eMMC will be called Rev C
 and they will likely cost a bit more at most distributors. This extra
 money is helping CircuitCo pay for the additional expense of the eMMC,
 but also to cover costs for ramping production to higher-than-ever
 rates.

 With the additional capacity CircuitCo is bringing on, we expect to be
 able to fill all end-user back-orders for the Rev B boards by early
 May and shift all production to Rev C. With around 150,000 boards on
 *distributor* back-orders, we'll be working with distributors to
 quickly accept board shipments such that CircuitCo isn't sitting on
 any units.

 So no more 2GB eMMC models ever?  What about one with no eMMC
 at all? I know there are more than a few people here that boot from
 network, sdcard or usb.
 Never say never, but we are unlikely to make any more 2GB eMMC models.
 I've been kicking around the idea of doing a kickstarter for a no-eMMC
 model, but I'd like to wait a month or two to see how the Rev C and
 Element14 boards are doing out there.

 Another thought occurred, has beagle or circuitco done any long duration
 eMMC testing? How graceful will the BBB handle a failed eMMC part?
 Failed as-in worn out from use not a defect. I think some people are
 concerned with eMMC failures and so they don't use it or don't rely
 on it.
 The only data we have is from the manufacturer and the community.
 After a year, we aren't seeing wear-out issues. The ext4 file system
 if fairly robust, but if writes start failing, end-user failures can
 occur in odd ways. If you are creating a mission-critical app that
 must stay deployed for many years without the ability to perform
 replacements, I'd encourage you to alter the eMMC contents to
 read-only, except for your critical data acquisition.

any chance we will get a bump in RAM any time soon? Would love to see
1GB or catching up to some of the other boards with 2GB. I realize it
would be a cost increase, but I think that would be a better option than
no eMMC.

I bet if you use bluez 5.14 and later you will have better luck.

I run ArchLinux|ARM though but have  no issues with upstreams bluez with

 I need to set up a communication with my Beaglebone connected to

I would avoid hamachi logmein has moved to a pay model, while hamachi is
still free if you run it as a service you have to pay $29 or something
a year.

I would find a better OpenSource/Free alternative.

You should use the RMA form on the on beagleboard.org site. I would post
a link but beagleboard.org seems down right now and cant get the actual

 I explained this previously, so here something deeper... Unless it
 works perfectly out of the box, that hardware is going to be hard to
 work with due to lack of focus on a mainline kernels by both the
 manufacture of that board and the silicon vendor.

 So if you want to throw money away, go for it..

 So in this specific context, Ubuntu versus Debian may matter less, but
 Ubuntu is not exactly a server distro. Like any other flavor of Linux,
 it can be made to do anything other Linux's can do but . . . Debian
 should not let you down.


 Just so you know, the BBB is actually rather fast with network
 transfers via the ethernet interface. That is considering it is 10/100
 fast ethernet. You can nearly max the interface speed wise.

 I would pick up one of Robert Nelson's 3.13.x Debian images, and start

 Sorry for this easy question, maybe someone has some experience

If you used paypal contact paypal and file a dispute against them, they
claim to be verified by paypal. Also if you used a credit card with
paypal you can involve your credit card company. I would also be calling

For me if a company can't even have a fully functional site, that is a
good indication that they should be avoided.

 If you use a massively threaded application that crunches numbers you

 However, you'd be better off with somethign like an ODroid board, or
 perhaps even a wanderboard. These have more cores, and more memory( or

 We'd also need to know more about the laptop you currently
 have to judge performance differences.

 I'd say that the BBB would play angry birds, and several other
 android games just fine. So long as 512MB of ram was enough.
 There is even a video on youtube somewhere of an LCD screen
 vendor who demo'd need for speed shift, angry birds, and a few
 other things. All of which seemed to work just fine. However,
 you would need to set all this up yourself.

 So in short, the BBB would probably play games just fine as a
 single system, but clustering would not help. While clustering
 might help the math heavy apps you have in mind. *Maybe*.

 I guess I wasn't clear, you need to type
 'arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++ --version'. Just typing g++ will
 use your regular host compiler (not toolchain cross compiler)

  

 If that gives a valid response, you then need to modify your
 qmake.conf files or configure command line options (depending on
 Qt version and how you configured it) to point to the full binary
 name, not just g++.

  

 From the error message, I doubt the error is in
 qabstractanimation.cpp, but you can look around for a local
 qmake.conf file, for that module, that may be pointing to the
 wrong g++.

Re: [beagleboard] Custom Beaglebone Black does not bootup unless UART0 port is used

[Don deJuan]

On 01/09/2014 11:14 PM, nitesh singh wrote:
 Hi, 

 I am using a customised Beaglebone Black, whose schematics is very close to 
 Original Beaglebone Black.  You can say we cloned the Beaglebone black 
 hardware and assembled the board.

 Now I used Robert C Nelson's Debian wheezy emmc flasher image sd card to 
 boot it for first time , and wrote the emmc. Then I dumped binary data 
 copied from EEPROM of one of the original beaglebone black's eeprom to the 
 eeprom on this.

 So, now the issue that i am facing is that, this board will not boot up 
 again from emmc or another sd card that i use, other than the flasher sd 
 card. 
 Then accidently or by chance, i tried to look at its UART0 port from UART 
 port on the other beaglebone black and it booted up as usual. 

 After that i observed that this customised beaglebone black is booting only 
 when the UART0 is accessed on another Beaglebone black or just simply 
 connected to its UART.

 What can be the problem here ? The emmc flashed on another original 
 beaglebone black is working fine, just this customised board will not boot 
 in the usual manner. 

 I was reading through the minicom output at UART0 for this custom board, it 
 gave some read errors, and also said that mmcblk0boot0 and mmcblk0boot1 
 does not valid partition table. 
I would start here and properly partition. The rest should come after
that part. Take a look at robert nelsons scripts for guidence if you do
not know what to do.

 What are these partitions and is it possible to write or create any 
 partitions on them ?  I have seen that they are there on other beaglebone 
 blacks and mmcblk0 changes to mmcblk1 if booted from sd card, I could not 
 understand its function. Is this creating any problem with the bootup ? I 
 suspect the eeprom data also might be causing this error.

 I have attached the minicom output file for the custom board's UART0 port 
 while it was booting. 

 One more thing, it seems, connecting only DGND and UART0_RX to another 
 board is sufficient to make it boot. So it is reading some data over Uart0, 
 is it to do with eeprom ?

 Please help. 

 Thanks and regards, 
 Nitesh

What I think most or maybe just me is not getting is why you're not just
making the package yourself? There is no porting to be done. It is
already setup to run for linux, and like the other post said you just
need to do it for armv7 vs armv6. You just need to compile for your
needs, very simple to do yourself.

Also what OS are you doing this on? If you were on Arch you could use
their PKGBUILD and just type this
makepkg
pacman -U pkgname
bam

I know on debian/ubuntu it pretty simple to make your own pkg as well
angstrom well I wont even comment.

If you really just want a package for the BB and just cant be bothered
to compile it yourself, then contact me off list

 -bash: systemctl: command not found

 In Ubuntu service is the command to use to start/stop/check services

 root@arm:~# service
 Usage: service  option  | --status-all | [ service_name [ command | 
 --full-restart ] ]
