this is under kernel config, .config file,

so:
 make menuconfig ARCH=arm

search for nowayout

 Not going to happen. A few months ago I asked Gerald to look at making a
 module version of BBB for a while and he is dead set against it. I always
 thought it would be better to have a module and a range of of base boards
 rather than capes. It would be quite simple to create a custom base board
 with all the features you need, but Gerald didn’t agree. In the end, he has
 been very successful at designing products that have been very successful,
 so I deferred to his expertise. Remember, Gerald is highly focused on the
 hobbyist and doesn’t want his boards to be sucked up by companies for their
 production.

 John

[beagleboard] Re: Problem in dynamically loading libraries (QT5 on AM335x board)

2014-04-08 Thread Morix Dev

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Availability - how come nobody has any BeagleBone Black to sell?

2014-04-08 Thread Bas Laarhoven


First impression of an Embest 'BeagleBone Black' from Farnell:

- The board I got is using the same PCB rev. B6, as the rev B BeagleBone 
Black.
- It does not have the CE (like), FCC and Beagleboard.org logos, but an 
Embest / Element14 marking instead.
- The PCB overall finish (milling, solder mask) looks at least as good 
as that of the original BeagleBone.
- On this board the unused solder pads are not covered with tin. This 
makes the board easily recognizable by the golden pads (e.g. on the JTAG 
connector).


Closer inspection shows that the TH soldering hole fill ratio and 
wetting is much lower than on the original BeagleBone. For an IPC class 
1 board this may still be acceptable, but how far it will cause 
connectors to tear off more easily is to be seen, time will tell. My 
board shows some nasty (tooling?) scratches  near the HDMI connector and 
there's a blob of solder underneath the connector. Maybe they're using 
PIP for soldering the HDMI connector. Furthermore the Embest board does 
not seem to have the epoxy around the micro USB connector. Circuitco 
still deems this necessary, otherwise they wouldn't include this rather 
expensive processing step.


Comparing the boot log of the Embest board with that of an original BBB 
shows no differences. Both boards seem to contain the same software 
(bootloader  Angstrom).


So at first sight, the Embest board seems an exact and good replacement 
for the current rev B BeagleBone Black and it's available for immediate 
shipment. How much the TH connector solder quality will affect board 
failure rate remains to be seen though.

the reality here is that it looks like by combining the RPi module format
*AND* a carrier board RPi is *FINALLY* playing catchup to what beagle has
had all along and even there beagle still leads in being more open with
more peripherals and probably a lower price when all if totaled up.  A
module format for beagle. I really don't see a need for it.  Beagle
bone (black) *IS* a module unto itself complete with a well defined
expansion interface.  If you want a module, pay bunches more for a much
more difficult to interface gumstix module.

[beagleboard] [Beagleboard xm] Using GPIO interrupt with Device Tree issue

2014-04-08 Thread Christophe Ricard
Hi,

I am currently facing concern to manage gpio interrupt inside my device 
driver with device tree. It is working fine with static platform_data 
configuration.
My device is connected to i2c. Here is my how my node looks like:

i2c2 {
   clock-frequency = 40;
   status = okay;
   foo: foo@0x08 {
compatible = foo, foo_i2c;
reg = 0x08;
interrupt-parent = gpio6;
interrupts = 2 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW;
enable = gpio6 29 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH;
   };
};

In my probe function, i am able to retrieve and configure the enable gpio.
I am retrieving the interrupts with irq_of_parse_and_map(pp, 0); and the 
polarity with irq_get_trigger_type.

When requesting the irq with devm_request_threaded_irq, the irq goes crazy 
and trigger multiple interrupt for ever.

This phenomenon is not visible with following node:
i2c2 {
   clock-frequency = 40;
   status = okay;
   foo: foo@0x08 {
compatible = foo, foo_i2c;
reg = 0x08;
irq = gpio6 2 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW;
enable = gpio6 29 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH;
   };
};

And using following sequence:
- devm_gpio_request
- gpio_direction_input
- gpio_to_irq
- devm_request_threaded_irq


gpio6 2 is gpio_130
gpio6 29 is gpio_157

Do you have any idea about what i am doing wrong ?

Best Regards
Christophe

[beagleboard] ADC reading by PRU

2014-04-08 Thread Youngtae Jo
I've tried to find some example of ADC reading by PRU for my project, but I 
couldn't find it.
And I made that of source code and attach here for some people who have the 
same problem with me.
I hope it will be helpful.

[ AM335x ARM-CORE PRU ADC Example ]
 - Sequence of example
 1. Install compiling environment of PRU
 2. Enable PRU 
 3. Enable ADC 
 4. Example source
- This example source collects ADC data from AIN0 pin with 16khz 
sampling rate.
- The collected data are saved into Results.txt file.
- The example source are Makefile, ADCCollector.c, ADCCollector.p, 
ADCCollector.hp

[ Install compile environment ]
 1. Get a copy of the am335x_pru_package - 
https://github.com/beagleboard/am335x_pru_package
You also can download the am335x_pru_package here - 
https://github.com/beagleboard/am335x_pru_package/archive/master.zip
 2. If you downloaded the archive, unpack it somewhere under your home 
directory.
 3. Make a new directory /usr/include/pruss/ and copy the files prussdrv.h  
and pruss_intc_mapping.h into it (from 
am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/app_loader/include). 
Check the permissions; if you used the .zip file, these headers will likely 
have the execute bits on. 
It doesn't really hurt anything, but is certainly not what you want.
 4. Change directory to 
am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/app_loader/interface 
then run: CROSS_COMPILE= make (note the space between the = and the 
command).
 5. The previous step should have created four files in 
am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/app_loader/lib: libprussdrv.a, 
libprussdrvd.a, libprussdrvd.so and libprussdrv.so. 
Copy these all to /usr/lib then run ldconfig.
 6. Change directory to am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/utils/pasm_source 
then run source linuxbuild to create a pasm executable one directory 
level up. 
 - If linuxbuild doesn't have permission to execution, give the permission 
by run this
   : chmod +x linuxbuild
Copy it to /usr/bin and make sure you can run it. 
If you invoke it with no arguments, you should get a usage statement.
 
[ Enable PRU ]
 Before using PRU, we need to enable the PRU core, you can do it as shown 
below
 # echo BB-BONE-PRU-01  /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.8/slots

[ Enable ADC ]
 Before using ADC, we also need to enable ADC, you can do it as shown below
 # echo cape-bone-iio  /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.*/slots
 
[ ADC Example - Makefile]
CFLAGS+=-Wall -Werror
LDLIBS+= -lpthread -lprussdrv

all: ADCCollector.bin ADCCollector

clean:
rm -f ADCCollector *.o *.bin

ADCCollector.bin: ADCCollector.p

[ ADC Example - ADCCollector.p]
// Developed by Youngtae Jo in Kangwon National University (April-2014)

// This program collects ADC from AIN0 with certain sampling rate.
// The collected data are stored into PRU shared memory(buffer) first.
// The host program(ADCCollector.c) will read the stored ADC data
// This program uses double buffering technique. 
// The host program can recognize the buffer status by buffer status 
variable
// 0 means empty, 1 means first buffer is ready, 2 means second buffer is 
ready.
// When each buffer is ready, host program read ADC data from the buffer.

#include ADCCollector.hp

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Problem in dynamically loading libraries (QT5 on AM335x board)

2014-04-08 Thread Thiago Marques
Hi,
 Thanks, sorry for the delay to respond, it's because I was in another
project. Today I will try to compile the ICU again.
   My ./configure command line is:
./configure -prefix /opt/qt5 -debug-and-release -make libs -xplatform
linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ -opengl es2 -confirm-license -opensource -icu -no-xcb
-no-pch -make examples -verbose -shared -plugin-sql-sqlite -qt-zlib
-no-cups -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg

I apply this path that I made: patch_qt5_1_1__1.0
I copied the include to my filesystem.

2014-04-03 10:28 GMT-03:00 Morix Dev morix@gmail.com:

 Thiago,
 just to narrow down the problem... can you tell me how you cross-compiled
 QT? I mean can you tell me which flags have you put on your ./configure
 command line and what is the content of your
 qtbase/mkspecs/your-architecture/qmake.conf?

 Thanks,

Same here. I've had some boards on back order for many weeks. Every week 
I got an automated mail that there was another week of delay. When I 
asked them what was going on the sales rep got told: With 2291620 we 
are experiencing difficulties with delivery on this item. Please advise 
your customer that once we have any updates they will be informed.. 
Item 2291620 is the original BeagleBone Black. They never had the 
decency to say what was really going on.





But hey ho...

The main thing I'm surprised about is the lack of CE/FCC certification after

...although there is a CE LOGO on the box, I thought the product itself needed

That's probably the 'China Export' logo :D

Seriously: The box I got carries both the CE and FCC logos. Makes you 
wonder why they took the effort to remove these logos from the board itself!

[beagleboard] Ina219 with linux kernel driver

2014-04-08 Thread Pierre Kancir


Hi,

I am trying to use ina219 http://www.ti.com/product/ina219 sensor (
http://www.adafruit.com/products/904) with linux kernel driver on 
beaglebone black.

I want to use device tree overlay to use the sensor. I follow kernel 
indications (
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/ina2xx.txt)
 
and the sensor works as expected. 

But adafruit board use 0.1ohms and default driver value for shunt-resistor 
is 10mOhms so return value are wrong.

I want to modify value in device tree as indicated 

ina219@40 {
  compatible = ti,ina219;
  reg = 0x40;
  shunt-resistor = 10;
 };

but changing shunt-resistor value does nothing. The sensor is always create 
with 10mOhms value

ina2xx 1-0040: power monitor ina219 (Rshunt = 1 uOhm)

How can i change the shunt-resistor value to get the proper return?

thanks,

Pierre

 port on my laptop, installing the necessary files to communicate with the

 issue occurred when I connected the BB in the following manner.

 1. From micro HDMI port to HDMI port on monitor.
 2. Connected the 5V power source into the BB
 3. Connected a USB cable from the USB jack on the BB to my 4 port powered
 USB hub.
 4. Connected the micro USB cable into the 4 port hub.
 5. Inserted wireless keybrd/mouse dongle into the 4 port hub.

 When I applied power to the BB within 1 minute of doing so I hear a
 faint high pitch tone and shortly thereafter I see a spark coming from the
 board. Based on the setup described what could have gone wrong?

[beagleboard] Re: Windows 8 (64bit) driver install problems

2014-04-08 Thread themayorofgusville
Thank you, Piyush. I had the same problem.

 Hi Kenny,

 As Jason noted the installer is unsigned, this means you need to restart 
 Windows 8 in the mode where it allows you to install unsigned drivers.

 Here's a quick step-by-step guide:

 1. Press win+c on the keyboard to bring up the charms side bar (or move 
 mouse to right top corner of the screen)

 2. Click the Settings button.

 3. Click the Change PC Settings at the bottom of the sidebar.

 4. On screen that shows up, select the General option from the sidebar 
 then scroll down the page that appears.

 5. Click the Restart now button under the Advanced startup section.

 6. You will momentarily see the restarting screen, then it will switch to 
 a blue screen titled Choose an option

 7. Click the Troubleshoot button.

 8. Click Advanced options.

 9. Click Startup Settings

 10. Click Restart

 11. You should then see a Startup Settings screen after your computer 
 reboots.

 12. Press 7 or F7 on your keyboard to Disable driver signature enforcement

 13. Now Windows 8 will continue starting up.

 14. Log-in as normal, and then run BONE_D64.exe again

 15. Now you should see 4 warning dialogs about unsigned driver 
 installation, click OK for all of them.

 Then you should be good to go!


 Hope that helps,

 Piyush

 OSX seems to work, so I don't think it's a hardware issue.

 Is there a work around?

[beagleboard] Ina219 with linux kernel driver on Beaglebone Black

2014-04-08 Thread pierre . kancir


Hi,

I am trying to use ina219 sensor (http://www.adafruit.com/products/904) with 
linux kernel driver on beaglebone black.

I want to use device tree overlay to use the sensor. I follow kernel 
indications (
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/ina2xx.txt)
 
and the sensor works as expected. 

But adafruit board use 0.1ohms and default driver value for shunt-resistor 
is 10mOhms so return value are wrong.

I want to modify value in device tree as indicated 

ina219@40 {
  compatible = ti,ina219;
  reg = 0x40;
  shunt-resistor = 10;
 };

but changing shunt-resistor value does nothing. The sensor is always create 
with 10mOhms value

ina2xx 1-0040: power monitor ina219 (Rshunt = 1 uOhm)


How can i change the shunt-resistor value to get the proper return?


thanks,


Pierre

Update of previous post:
I'm currently running BBB Linux CNC image based on Debian Wheezy 7.3 on
SDCard. I had to upgrade kernel to Linux arm 3.14.0-rc8-bone0 #1 SMP Sat
Mar 29 00:25:15 UTC 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux from package Debian because of
compiled in support for DS3232 RTC clock. I can see hot plug is running
correctly. I can plug/unplug mouse and keyboard any time. Cold plug after
reboot works as well. HDMI display is working too. Even Velleman 7-port HUB
works too - which was not working on Angstrom at all.

Note: I originally built Angstrom image 12/2013 (becuase I need module
mentioned above). But because I was not able get it booting from SDCard I
moved to my working Debian. Seems there is even older 3.2.28 Kernel than I

 Hi,

 I have been following this USB thread for a while and wanted to add my 2
 cents. I have a related but opposite problem. My hot plug works but my
 cold plugs does not. Let me clarify.

 *What works:*

 1)   Boot the Beagle Bone Black (the BBB) with now USB pluged in
 2)   Plug in a powered USB hub
 3)   Everything works as expected
 4)   Unplug usb
 5)   Plug USB back in. Everything works as expected. So hot plug works.

 *What fails*

 1) Power up the BBB with the powered USB connected. The USB hub come up
 alot faster than the BBB.
 2) No matter what is done, there is no way to get the BBB to see the USB
 devices apart from following up a reboot / power cycle as stated above.

 *Comments:*

 OS:  Richard Nelson's   Linux version 3.8.13-bone30

 4.8.1 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.1-10ubuntu8) ) #1 SMP Thu Nov 14 06:23:24 UTC 2013

 Hardware: BBB Rev B. Only started shipping from March 2014 onwards. I
 noticed a capacitor discrete mounted near the USB port. Is this a Rev B
 hack?

 *What I am trying to solve*

 I would like to have the USB devices come online upon power up without
 having to observe the (1) BBB on first (2) plug in the USB Hub + devices
 sequence. I.E. if I stick all this stuff into an embedded gadget it would
 not come up on power up. I would have to have some sort of two-phase relay
 hardware in place to (1) power up the BBB first, then (2) the USB + USB
 devices / dongles.

 Any thoughts / solutions?

 Best, Mike

 There is a rev of the BBB with 4GB emmc coming.

 I would be interested in a 'low profile' BBB -- same board but without
 the headers, ethernet, jack and USB populated, as it would be easier to
 embed for some applications.

 Hi Robert,

 Could you please provide some checklist or suggestions that can help

Install systemd

add this to your boot args:

optargs=quiet init=/lib/systemd/systemd

install either conman/wicd to make network connection over

This should get you within 10-15seconds bootup time.

 Possibly, depending on what you did. Try starting over and do a

 Yes you're correct, but I used this port as well due to attempting to

 longer when it was connected to USB Host connection. When the dongle didn't
 work on USB host I then connected it to the USB hub getting the same
 result. This is when I attempted connecting the USB client connection to
 the hub and the Hub to the USB Host connect resulting in the arching
 effect. My thought is it broke my board.

 I've recently purchased the BBB and over the weekend I went through
 setting it up. I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with the setup and
 the size. I followed the supplied instructions of connecting the device to
 my computer using the USB cable connecting it from the micro USB port to a
 port on my laptop, installing the necessary files to communicate with the
 device. My
 issue occurred when I connected the BB in the following manner.

 1. From micro HDMI port to HDMI port on monitor.
 2. Connected the 5V power source into the BB
 3. Connected a USB cable from the USB jack on the BB to my 4 port
 powered
 USB hub.
 4. Connected the micro USB cable into the 4 port hub.
 5. Inserted wireless keybrd/mouse dongle into the 4 port hub.

 When I applied power to the BB within 1 minute of doing so I hear a
 faint high pitch tone and shortly thereafter I see a spark coming from the
 board. Based on the setup described what could have gone wrong?

BeagleBone Black Project Spotlight: Shield I/O

Some unlikely combinations just seem to work: Oreos and peanut butter,
Dwight Schrute and Michael Scott and now Arduino and BeagleBone Black!
[image: Shield I/O+ beside the BeagleBone Black]

With the new Shield I/O, you can now use (almost) any Arduino shield with a
BeagleBone Black. The Shield I/O, created by Andreas Behrend, adapts
Arduino shields to be BeagleBone Black compatible, it doesn't matter if
you're using 3.3V or 5V logic or up to 5V analog inputs. Precise resistor
arrays divide the analog inputs and make it an option to measure up to 5V.

Shield I/O comes with dedicated level shifters for all 14 digital GPIO
pins, PWM, I2C and SPI. Something interesting to note is that part of
Shield I/O comes from an Atmel ATTiny that lets the user switch logic
levels through software over I2C.

The device uses two TXB0108 level shifters for standard I/O lines and one
TXS0102 shifting the I2C bus. Shield I/O also comes in a Plus version,
which features a MCP23017 that is also accessible over the I2C bus.

Andreas saw a need for Shield I/O while working with microcontrollers that
had to be rebooted to switch between different programs or adapt to new
settings. He wanted to give developers an option for a ready-made Arduino
Shield to use with a powerful embedded device, BeagleBone Black. Shield I/O
makes it possible to communicate with Arduino shields without re-flashing
or rebooting the whole system.

Andreas chose BeagleBone Black because of its power and compatibility.

It's the most powerful embedded device out there with enough PWM, SPI,
I²C, Timers, analog inputs, which can be muxed to fit the Arduino pin
mapping including 2 PRUs to get high speed timing wherever it's needed,
Behrend stated.

Andreas is a student currently employed by impressx
mediahttp://beagleboard.us3.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=6e7c2131525b7b1b74c71e2cbid=f942e09496e=0f3c03e366,
who supports the Shield I/O. Additionally, Andreas has worked as a graphic
designer and has run his own business. His next project is in the works and
will be used in the healthcare industry - a tracker used by doctors to
monitor a patient's overall health.

Just as each developer creates their own projects, the Shield I/O allows
its user to employ their own creativity and make their own projects, with
Shield I/O as its base.

 Yes you're correct, but I used this port as well due to attempting to
 figure out why my wireless dongle for keybrd and mouse wasn't working any
 longer when it was connected to USB Host connection. When the dongle didn't
 work on USB host I then connected it to the USB hub getting the same
 result. This is when I attempted connecting the USB client connection to
 the hub and the Hub to the USB Host connect resulting in the arching
 effect. My thought is it broke my board.

 port on my laptop, installing the necessary files to communicate with the

 issue occurred when I connected the BB in the following manner.

 1. From micro HDMI port to HDMI port on monitor.
 2. Connected the 5V power source into the BB
 3. Connected a USB cable from the USB jack on the BB to my 4 port

 USB hub.
 4. Connected the micro USB cable into the 4 port hub.
 5. Inserted wireless keybrd/mouse dongle into the 4 port hub.

 When I applied power to the BB within 1 minute of doing so I hear a
 faint high pitch tone and shortly thereafter I see a spark coming from the
 board. Based on the setup described what could have gone wrong?

Gerals,

That section talks about a price increase between USD 5 to USD 15 for 
the rev C version.
Has anything been decided? Mouser has increased the price from EUR 36 
($49) to EUR 48 ($66).
Let's hope that's $15 for manufacturing plus some reseller profit,

Re: [beagleboard] ADC reading by PRU

2014-04-08 Thread Jason Kridner

 I've tried to find some example of ADC reading by PRU for my project, but I
 couldn't find it.
 And I made that of source code and attach here for some people who have the
 same problem with me.
 I hope it will be helpful.

Thanks! At first glance, it looks rather helpful. I'd encourage you to
submit a fork to the am335x_pru_package on Github as many people are
doing to share software examples for using the PRUs. It would
certainly reduce the number of steps required for people to reproduce
your work.


 [ AM335x ARM-CORE PRU ADC Example ]
  - Sequence of example
  1. Install compiling environment of PRU
  2. Enable PRU
  3. Enable ADC
  4. Example source
 - This example source collects ADC data from AIN0 pin with 16khz
 sampling rate.
 - The collected data are saved into Results.txt file.
 - The example source are Makefile, ADCCollector.c, ADCCollector.p,
 ADCCollector.hp

 [ Install compile environment ]
  1. Get a copy of the am335x_pru_package -
 https://github.com/beagleboard/am335x_pru_package
 You also can download the am335x_pru_package here -
 https://github.com/beagleboard/am335x_pru_package/archive/master.zip
  2. If you downloaded the archive, unpack it somewhere under your home
 directory.
  3. Make a new directory /usr/include/pruss/ and copy the files prussdrv.h
 and pruss_intc_mapping.h into it (from
 am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/app_loader/include).
 Check the permissions; if you used the .zip file, these headers will likely
 have the execute bits on.
 It doesn't really hurt anything, but is certainly not what you want.
  4. Change directory to
 am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/app_loader/interface
 then run: CROSS_COMPILE= make (note the space between the = and the
 command).
  5. The previous step should have created four files in
 am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/app_loader/lib: libprussdrv.a,
 libprussdrvd.a, libprussdrvd.so and libprussdrv.so.
 Copy these all to /usr/lib then run ldconfig.
  6. Change directory to am335x_pru_package-master/pru_sw/utils/pasm_source
 then run source linuxbuild to create a pasm executable one directory
 level up.
 - If linuxbuild doesn't have permission to execution, give the permission by
 run this
   : chmod +x linuxbuild
 Copy it to /usr/bin and make sure you can run it.
 If you invoke it with no arguments, you should get a usage statement.

 [ Enable PRU ]
  Before using PRU, we need to enable the PRU core, you can do it as shown
 below
  # echo BB-BONE-PRU-01  /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.8/slots

Note that the 8 isn't always an 8, you should do:

# echo BB-BONE-PRU-01  /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.*/slots


 [ Enable ADC ]
  Before using ADC, we also need to enable ADC, you can do it as shown below
  # echo cape-bone-iio  /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.*/slots

 [ ADC Example - Makefile]
 CFLAGS+=-Wall -Werror
 LDLIBS+= -lpthread -lprussdrv

 clean:
 rm -f ADCCollector *.o *.bin

 ADCCollector.bin: ADCCollector.p
 pasm -b $^

 ADCCollector: ADCCollector.o

 // This program collects ADC from AIN0 with certain sampling rate.
 // The collected data are stored into PRU shared memory(buffer) first.
 // The host program(ADCCollector.c) will read the stored ADC data
 // This program uses double buffering technique.
 // The host program can recognize the buffer status by buffer status

 // 0 means empty, 1 means first buffer is ready, 2 means second buffer is

2014-04-08 Thread Christophe Ricard
My mistake.

After checking over and over the dts i figured out that gpio_130 is on bank 
5 (not 6).
i2c2 {
   clock-frequency = 40;
   status = okay;
   foo: foo@0x08 {
compatible = foo, foo_i2c;
reg = 0x08;
interrupt-parent = gpio5;
interrupts = 2 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW;
enable = gpio5 29 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH;
   };
};

Is working fine :)

 Hi,

 I am currently facing concern to manage gpio interrupt inside my device 
 driver with device tree. It is working fine with static platform_data 
 configuration.
 My device is connected to i2c. Here is my how my node looks like:

 i2c2 {
clock-frequency = 40;
status = okay;
foo: foo@0x08 {
 compatible = foo, foo_i2c;
 reg = 0x08;
 interrupt-parent = gpio6;
 interrupts = 2 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW;
 enable = gpio6 29 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH;
};
 };

 In my probe function, i am able to retrieve and configure the enable gpio.
 I am retrieving the interrupts with irq_of_parse_and_map(pp, 0); and the 
 polarity with irq_get_trigger_type.

 When requesting the irq with devm_request_threaded_irq, the irq goes crazy 
 and trigger multiple interrupt for ever.

 This phenomenon is not visible with following node:
 i2c2 {
clock-frequency = 40;
status = okay;
foo: foo@0x08 {
 compatible = foo, foo_i2c;
 reg = 0x08;
 irq = gpio6 2 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW;
 enable = gpio6 29 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH;
};
 };

 And using following sequence:
 - devm_gpio_request
 - gpio_direction_input
 - gpio_to_irq

[beagleboard] GUI for Universal DTO

2014-04-08 Thread Charles Steinkuehler
Alexander Rössler wrote a nifty GUI front-end for my universal device
tree overlay:

http://youtu.be/lJBh1-RuIFs

As a reminder, this overlay enables most typically useful hardware for
the BeagleBone (I2C, UARTS, PWM, etc) and allows run-time user-space
control of pin multiplexing.  With Alexander's GUI, it's now even easier
to control your pins!

You can get Alexander's code here:

https://github.com/strahlex/BBPinConfig

...and my universal overlay here:

https://github.com/cdsteinkuehler/beaglebone-universal-io

Note the universal overlay should already be installed on recent Debian
test builds from RCN.

Seems like it'd be great to put some Debian packaging around this
utility and get it into the debian.beagleboard.org feed.

[beagleboard] Finally : did someone succeeded to have a Qt GUI app ?

2014-04-08 Thread dlewin555
Hi,

Is there finally someone who succeeded to have a GUI compiled with Qt (from 
Debian for example ) ?

I've tested many things, and they either rely on Angstrom (which I'd like 
to avoid) or don't work at all (Timesys included)

So I'm looking for a successful try ...

Re: [beagleboard] LCD 3.5 Cape Blocks all Analog Input Pins on Beaglebone Black

2014-04-08 Thread mustangsax14
Hello,

I am trying to also use the BeagleBone ADC along with an LCD screen that 
has touch functionality. I've decided that the touch functionality isn't 
important and would rather disable it to give me full access to the 
internal ADC. The screen is the 4DCape-43T. I would like a little bit of 
guidance trying to alter the device tree for the LCD to disable the touch 
functionality. Where is the device tree located for the display? If anyone 
knows the exact code to change, that would be welcomed advice, also. I am a 
little inexperienced with the BeagleBone Black, so I'm a little confused 
about how to do this. It would be a life saver if anyone could help!

Thanks,
Steven

 You can play with the device tree for the LCD panel and remove the ADC 
 bits.  You should also be able to make a custom device tree that 
 supports the touch screen *AND* reading the other three inputs, but 
 this might involve tweaking some driver code. 

 ...reviewing the device tree files for the lcd3 and the iio analog

 touchscreen parts from the LCD overlay and roll them into a separate 
 analog overlay (or add your required analog bits to a custom LCD 
 overlay), but you'll probably want to review the actual driver code 
 and make sure it's not doing something stupid.

So at first sight, the Embest board seems an exact and good
replacement for the current rev B BeagleBone Black and it's available
for immediate shipment. How much the TH connector solder quality will
affect board failure rate remains to be seen though.

Thanks for the info.  Sounds like lower quality for more money.



Not completely true:

The price is exactly the same as what they sold the original BeagleBone 
for (at least in the Netherlands). Farnell has always been a bit more 
expensive than the other popular distributors, but it's compensated by 
the free shipping.


Regarding the connector solder quality: Hopefully they are still tuning 
their production process, circuitco obviously has had more time (and  
100k boards) to do that!


And did I mention the box the board is packed in? It's almost twice as 
large and more sturdy than the original. So there you get more value for 
your money ;-)

What do you mean with older version? Both the original BBB rev B and the

What wonders me then is why circuitco is still spending money on putting 
epoxy around the mini USB connector on the BBB. You seem to think that 
isn't necessary? Or is it that one RMA for every thousand boards is 
cheaper than spending a couple of cents during assembly, to prevent that 
RMA?

Hi Robert,

The defualt init process is systemd. I added connman and wicd, still no 
improvement in boot time. The image takes about a minute to boot.

So instead of removing packages from the image-builder script, I am now 
adding chkconfig and xinit package to the image-builder script. Also I have 
added code to disable lightdm, apache2, xrdp, bonescript, 
bonescript-autorun and cloud9 service and added code to launch my custom

When I test it using the image provided by beagleboard.org, the system was 
booting in 15 seconds. Currently image builder is running and it will take 
about 7 to 10 hours to get the new images to test.

I want to add a boot splash screen to BBB. Would you suggest going for

 Install systemd 

 add this to your boot args:

Currently the BBB is booted from the beagleboard provided image and the

Even for the beagleboard.org provided images, the following error message

locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory

I tried setting up the locale but the message is still persists. Is there a

[beagleboard] uBoot Partition is full

2014-04-08 Thread jusrogers
Ok,

So, I updated my BBB from 13.04 to 13.10 because of this OpenSSL issue 
vulnerability that is surfacing, but I had an older Kernel installed, 
version 3.8.12-bone17. I pulled down the script to update to 3.8.13-bone40. 
It appeared to update ok, but my entire /boot/uboot partition is full. It 
said in the output that there is no space left. My /boot/uboot partition 
right now doesn't look like that if I were to reboot it, it would recover. 
I also tried running the installer for 3.8.12-bone17, and the files it 
creates in /boot/ are still too big to go into /boot/uboot, cause it looks 
like I have a 2MB partition. My other BBBs have 32MB set aside. Not sure 
what happened, but it could be because the install is so much older. Any 
recovery tips?

Thanks,

Justin

[beagleboard] How to enable LCD04 cape on Kernel 3.13.x

2014-04-08 Thread michael . ring

I do see the example line

cape=lcd04-01 


in uEnv.txt

and based on that I thought I could get the LCD to work.

Here's what I did:

I copied 

BB-BONE-LCD4-01-00A0.dtbo

to

/boot/uboot/dtbs/am335x-boneblack-lcd4-01.dtb

and rebooted. 

the system does not boot, I guess the cause is that in the LCD4 def there's 
only the devicetree part for LCD4.

I also tried the same with BB-BONE-LCD4-01-00A1.dtbo, same result.

Can anybody help?

Is there a way to make thre LCD4 work on BBB and Kernel 3.13?

Do I need to merge the default dtb with the lcd4 dtb? if yes, how do I do 
that?

I've not used angstrom for a while, but I'm fairly sure I had something 
newer than 2012.12 on a previous board. Maybe as something I upgraded to?

 What wonders me then is why circuitco is still spending money on putting 
 epoxy around the mini USB connector on the BBB. You seem to think that 
 isn't necessary? Or is it that one RMA for every thousand boards is 
 cheaper than spending a couple of cents during assembly, to prevent that 
 RMA?

I have some A5A boards that have the glue at the micro-HDMI connector too 
but CircuitCo dont seem to do that now either.

There will always be some heavy handed person out there who can rip the 
connector off no matter how hard you try to secure it. So it's a simple 
cost/benefit thing. Does the cost of paying someone to glue them down 
outweigh the cost of RMA's. 
I'm sure both CircuitCo and e14 have their own numbers and ideas on that.

What do you think the cost difference will be for labor in China vs the USA?

 e14/Embest have been building these for quite some time, but only selling
 to China

 The creation date on this article is Apr 18, 2013:


 http://www.element14.com/community/docs/DOC-54131/l/embest-bb-black-development-platform-based-on-ti-sitara-am3358-processor-exclusively-for-china

 Now it may be that they're tuning a process on a new production line
 that's been spun up to meet demand, but that's no reason to think they don't
 know what they're doing. It is obviously a different process to CircuitCo as
 some of your earlier observations show. We also don't know how many of these
 boards embest have already sold in China in the last year.


 Thanks, I wasn't aware of that. Then they're obviously using lower quality
 standards for their TH soldering process.



 Received one today, given that it has an AM3358 and the R8/R9 change then
 it appears to be a RevB equivalent. Older version of Angstrom, but that'll
 be getting wiped in the next few mins anyway.
 Different pre-installed image could certainly be a confusing problem for
 some people though.


 What do you mean with older version? Both the original BBB rev B and the
 Embest board show the same sw pre-loaded:

 U-Boot 2013.04-dirty (Jul 10 2013 - 14:02:53)
 Angstrom v2012.12 - Kernel 3.8.13




 With 25 years in the electronics subcontract manufacturing business behind
 me, I personally have no concerns about the quality. I suspect e14 don't
 either or they're unlikely to have engaged in wide distribution of a board
 that they'll be directly responsible for. Not like they can RMA these back
 to CircuitCo after all.


 What wonders me then is why circuitco is still spending money on putting
 epoxy around the mini USB connector on the BBB. You seem to think that isn't
 necessary? Or is it that one RMA for every thousand boards is cheaper than
 spending a couple of cents during assembly, to prevent that RMA?

Gerald gets hands-on with all of the beagleboard.org RMAs coming back
for the CircuitCo boards going out with the BeagleBoard.org logo
through the official distributors. I think it is safe to say that
Gerald doesn't like returns coming back that don't educate him on some
design flaw. Hopefully element14 will care as much about the quality
of boards, but only time will tell.

Reviews from the community will be critical in determining how many
BeagleBoard Compliant logos we provide them
(http://beagleboard.org/logo), so please keep the feedback coming. The
nice thing is that they should be making a donation to the
BeagleBoard.org Foundation for every board shipped. CircuitCo doesn't
do that because they give so much over and over again in funding the
board development.

I certainly hope they do. Having been heavily involved with RPi production 
I also expect they're quite familiar with the sorts of abuse these kind of

Oh that's good, hadn't realised that was happening from what I'd read about

Hi Robert,

I am not setting any myself. I only make changes in packages and in 
target/chroot/beagleboard.org.sh to add java and configure xinit. May be 
once the latest image gets ready, the error might be gone. Is this fixed 
recently?

Also when I run the gift-wrap-images(doesn't actaully remember the actual 
file name), it creates 4 files having names as BBB-*-blank-*.img.xz, 
bone-*.img.xz, BBB*.img.xz and one tar.gz file. As of now for testing 
purpose I am only using the bone-*.img.gz file and the flasher file. Whats 
the purpose of the Blank and the tar.gz file?

 Hi Robert,

 I am not setting any myself. I only make changes in packages and in
 target/chroot/beagleboard.org.sh to add java and configure xinit. May be
 once the latest image gets ready, the error might be gone. Is this fixed
 recently?

No, that fix has been in for awhile now..  I'm guessing java/xinit may
upset something..  Try running:

dpkg --list | pastebinit

and copying us the pastebin url, so i can try to replicate it and see
if we can fix it.

 Also when I run the gift-wrap-images(doesn't actaully remember the actual
 file name), it creates 4 files having names as BBB-*-blank-*.img.xz,
 bone-*.img.xz, BBB*.img.xz and one tar.gz file. As of now for testing
 purpose I am only using the bone-*.img.gz file and the flasher file. Whats
 the purpose of the Blank and the tar.gz file?

The blank *img, has a specially patched u-boot, to ignore lack of
specific eeprom information, such that CircuitCo/oem can flash a empty
board.  Note it requires a special board connector to un-write-protect
the factory eeprom.

The *.tar.gz is a compressed form of the base rootfs, used to generate
all the *.img files..

Re: [beagleboard] How to enable LCD04 cape on Kernel 3.13.x

Sniff, too bad. 

So what are the steps to do it? Take default and merge it with lcd04 or is 
there more magic involved?

 Blame me for having a broken default for an example.. 

 I don't have the lcd04-01 static cape done for v3.13.x/v3.14.x yet.

[beagleboard] UART4 stopped working: did not get pins for uart4 error: -19

2014-04-08 Thread pollock . phil
Hi,
On my BBB I have a Serial RS-232 BeagleBone Cape (BB_BONE_SERL-03 Rev A1) 
that I have jumpered for UART4. It works under Angstrom and was recently 
working under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Now it is not working under Ubuntu. There 
seems to be pin error which may be preventing it from loading.  I don't 
know if this was caused by some configuration changes or not.  I haven't 
been able to figure out what is causing the conflict. 

How can I find and fix this problem? 

Thanks for your help.

Phil

Background Information:

1. This is not a hardware problem. I have tested the same cape board under 
Angstrom and it works (a remote putty serial session receives the 
transmission); however, nothing is received from Ubuntu:

root@ubuntu-armhf:/home/ubuntu# echo hello  /dev/ttyO4


Note: I also tested UART4 using another micro-cape board that was working 
earlier - it also failed.

2. Some time ago I replaced /boot/dtbs/am335x-boneblack.dtb (decompiled, 
modified, recompiled .dts) to enable UART4 (/dev/ttyO4):

...
serial@481a8000 {
compatible = ti,omap3-uart;
ti,hwmods = uart5;
clock-frequency = 0x2dc6c00;
reg = 0x481a8000 0x2000;
interrupts = 0x2d;
status = okay;
linux,phandle = 0x1b;
phandle = 0x1b;
};
...
This was working under Angstrom and Ubuntu. 

3.  I tried restoring the original /boot/dtbs/am335x-boneblack.dtb and used 
a .dtbo overlay for UART 4 - it still didn't work.

4. I scanned dmesg for config errors:

For simple things: (usarts/spi/i2c) we can do:

https://github.com/RobertCNelson/linux-dev/blob/am33x-v3.14/patches/dts-bone-capes/0001-capes-ttyO1-ttyO2-ttyO4.patch

For the lcd, something like this
https://github.com/RobertCNelson/linux-dev/blob/am33x-v3.14/patches/static-capes/0002-Added-Argus-UPS-cape-support-BBW.patch

essentially creating another board dtb..

[beagleboard] Re: Finally : did someone succeeded to have a Qt GUI app ?

2014-04-08 Thread halherta
dlewin,

Assuming you have LXDE  X installed under Debian you can install qt4 with 
apt-get: sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev. For a more comprehensive QT4 
install including qtCreator (natively on the BBB) try  sudo apt-get 
install qt-sdk. To build a QT app from the command line, create a 
directory..add  source code for your project in that directory, cd into the 
directory then run:
 i) qmake -project  (create .pro file), 
ii) qmake (create makefile) and finally 
iii) make (build qt app)

You can also try Qtcreator natively on the RPiit may be a little laggy 
though

 I've tested many things, and they either rely on Angstrom (which I'd like

 So I'm looking for a successful try ...

Hi,

this is a pastbin from the beagleboard.org image. 
http://paste.debian.net/92548/

My script is still running so can't restart the system with custom built 
images. Will update in 2 hours.

 No, that fix has been in for awhile now..  I'm guessing java/xinit may

  purpose I am only using the bone-*.img.gz file and the flasher file. 
 Whats 
  the purpose of the Blank and the tar.gz file? 

 The blank *img, has a specially patched u-boot, to ignore lack of 
 specific eeprom information, such that CircuitCo/oem can flash a empty 
 board.  Note it requires a special board connector to un-write-protect 
 the factory eeprom. 

 The *.tar.gz is a compressed form of the base rootfs, used to generate 
 all the *.img files..

  Phil 
  
 
  

  Background Information: 
  
  1. This is not a hardware problem. I have tested the same cape board 
 under 
  Angstrom and it works (a remote putty serial session receives the 
  transmission); however, nothing is received from Ubuntu: 
  
  root@ubuntu-armhf:/home/ubuntu# echo hello  /dev/ttyO4 
  
  
  Note: I also tested UART4 using another micro-cape board that was 
 working 
  earlier - it also failed. 
  
  2. Some time ago I replaced /boot/dtbs/am335x-boneblack.dtb (decompiled, 
  modified, recompiled .dts) to enable UART4 (/dev/ttyO4): 
  
  ... 
  serial@481a8000 { 
  compatible = ti,omap3-uart; 
  ti,hwmods = uart5; 
  clock-frequency = 0x2dc6c00; 
  reg = 0x481a8000 0x2000; 
  interrupts = 0x2d; 
  status = okay; 
  linux,phandle = 0x1b; 
  phandle = 0x1b; 
  }; 
  ... 
  This was working under Angstrom and Ubuntu. 
  
  3.  I tried restoring the original /boot/dtbs/am335x-boneblack.dtb and 
 used 
  a .dtbo overlay for UART 4 - it still didn't work. 
  
  4. I scanned dmesg for config errors:

So this doesn't appear to work.

Is it correctly passed to the kernel? verify with:

cat /proc/cmdline

Thanks for your answer Hal.
I succeeded to build apps on my PC but the failing part is when
cross-compiling from PC and executing it to BBB.
Does this mean that a Qt application can only be developped from the board
, instead of QtCreator on PC as usual ?


2014-04-08 21:59 GMT+02:00 halhe...@gmail.com:

 dlewin,

 Assuming you have LXDE  X installed under Debian you can install qt4 with
 apt-get: sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev. For a more comprehensive QT4
 install including qtCreator (natively on the BBB) try  sudo apt-get
 install qt-sdk. To build a QT app from the command line, create a
 directory..add  source code for your project in that directory, cd into the
 directory then run:
  i) qmake -project  (create .pro file),
 ii) qmake (create makefile) and finally
 iii) make (build qt app)

 You can also try Qtcreator natively on the RPiit may be a little laggy
 though

 So I'm looking for a successful try ...

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Finally : did someone succeeded to have a Qt GUI app ?

2014-04-08 Thread Hussam Hertani
David, yes absolutely You can build applications natively on the BBB using
a native compiler (ygcc compiler on the BBB not a cross compiler...) and a
native set of the QT4 libraries. Expect slightly slower build times though.
Also running QtCreator natively on the BBB might be a bit laggybut
usable. I typically build the applications from the command line. This
approach uses a pre-built armhf version of QT4 from the debian repos. It is
not as flexible as a custom QT library build and requires Xorg/server but
it works.

[beagleboard] BBB stepper controller using PRU

2014-04-08 Thread tom
Greetings.  I just joined the group, which I figured was overdue since I 
have been doing a lot of work on the BBB over the past 6 months or so.

I had the idea of using some kind of controller to implement a camera focus 
controller to do focus stacking.  This has all worked out
and is operational now, but not without quite a bit of learning.  Some high 
points:

1) I abandoned Cloud-9 immediately as hopelessly buggy (I hope nobodies 
feelings are hurt) and was far happier just editing javascript
files with vim and running node on the command line.  Ultimately my project 
has a beagle hosted web based GUI and I have no regrets
about this way of doing things.  Although I do all my development under 
linux, my photography machine runs windows and I can just run the
GUI in a browser (Chrome works fine) to do the camera focus control.

2) I used the PRU to generate steps for a stepper motor.  Doing this from 
node was hopeless (actually it was quite entertaining to listen
to the motor run with changes of tone and stops and starts as the linux 
scheduler preempted my code).  With step generation in the
PRU, it is consistent and bulletproof.  I very much like the PRU - but 
there is a learning curve.  I reworked the standard PRU library
to fix bugs and add some features I though were desirable.

All my notes are at this link:

http://cholla.mmto.org/computers/beagle/

In particular, my reworked PRU package is here:

David you can definitely cross-compile QT apps for the BBB as wellI
just found the process
 to be somewhat unwieldy. Getting native compilation to work is much easier
and achieves more or less the same thing most of the time

 David, yes absolutely You can build applications natively on the BBB using
 a native compiler (ygcc compiler on the BBB not a cross compiler...) and a
 native set of the QT4 libraries. Expect slightly slower build times though.
 Also running QtCreator natively on the BBB might be a bit laggybut
 usable. I typically build the applications from the command line. This
 approach uses a pre-built armhf version of QT4 from the debian repos. It is
 not as flexible as a custom QT library build and requires Xorg/server but
 it works.

 Indeed, as I've already got the case now I pay attention to that point:
 the gnueabihf from Linaro were used as in the Louis good tutorial  :

 http://armsdr.blogspot.fr/2014/01/bare-metal-qt-52-on-beaglebone-black_16.html
  Anyway, whereas the cross-compilation was ok-the app execute fine- the
 display can't show GUI correctly (no btn, no label, ...) it seems that
 everybody has that issue. I've looked in the forums (official Qt about
 BBB included) for an alternative of linufb (xcb as instance) without better
 results.
 Therefore, I wonder if Qt is able to be cross-compiled for BBB.

  Thanks for your answer Hal.
  I succeeded to build apps on my PC but the failing part is when
  cross-compiling from PC and executing it to BBB.
  Does this mean that a Qt application can only be developped from the
 board ,
  instead of QtCreator on PC as usual ?

  Debian is using the armhf abi, so make sure your cross compiler is
 of the gnueabihf variety..

 Gerals,

 That section talks about a price increase between USD 5 to USD 15 for the

 Has anything been decided? Mouser has increased the price from EUR 36

 Let's hope that's $15 for manufacturing plus some reseller profit,
 instead of the other way around!

[beagleboard] Flashed Image on BeagleBone Black itself

2014-04-08 Thread Terrence Li
Hi,

I am new to the beaglebone black and I accidentally wrote an image on the 
bbb itself using the win32disk imager. I understand that it affected the 
eMMC of the board, but I have tried flashing the image to the board using 
the stock image on a microSD. However, the board's led would flash for a 
while then only lights D2 and D3 would light up. I am guessing that the 
writing didn't work. Please help!

Thanks

[beagleboard] Debian, Bluez and a Sony PS3 Sixaxis Controller

2014-04-08 Thread macarr
Hi All,

First I want to thank Robert, Jason and everyone that coded/tested to bring 
Debian to our projects. My life became considerably easier because of those 
efforts. Magnificent!

The next hurdle for me has been trying to get a Sony PS3 sixaxis controller 
and the Sony wireless keyboard working with Bluetooth (Bluez). The problem 
seems to be that when I plug the controller into the USB port, UDEV creates 
input/js0 and event0 

but Dmesg reports- 

[15105.669932] input: Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller as

but lacks reporting the following

From what I understand there is a patch that went into Linux kernel since 
2.6.37 but I could never find it in the changelogs. Does anyone know if 
this patch carried through to 3.8.13-bone41?

Also the Bluez version we have for Debian seems to be 4.99 and the latest 
version on www.bluez.org is up to 5.17. Sixaxis looks to be fully supported 
in that version. Any chance we will be going to a newer version of Bluez in 
the near future?

Thanks!

 Hello Guys, 

 Today I received my BeagleBone Black and the 7 LCD LVDS bundle (Cape + 
 7 Display) form Chalkboard (
 http://www.chalk-elec.com/?page_id=1280#!/~/product/category=3094859id=13727570
 ).
 On thier page i couldn´t find any manual how to setup the bungle or 
 software guides for the BBB just one small software guide for the BBW .

 I have updated to the current Angstrom version and would like to use the 
 BBB with the LCD cape.
 First of all I am not really sure how to connect the hardware to the 
 board. 

 Of cause the cape is just plugged on top and also the connection to the 
 display is self explaining, but there is another little PCB which can be 
 plugin in two ways and has an mini USB port.


 https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/--7kbeN9WrGw/UbDwPxeRS9I/AfA/CoMwDMotD5o/s1600/IMAG0627_1.jpg





















 and this little board:
  

 which in my understanding can be plugged in here, but there is no 
 failsave so i could also turn it around ...: 

 https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-I3EpsOzYM_I/UbDy5m-vTgI/Afk/ak0ypfd-pRg/s1600/IMAG0637_1.jpg

 But the backlight of the LCD is running without this litte pcb when I 
 plug the board to power. 
 It stays black! Is that becasue the BBB isn´t configured for this display 
 or becasue the little PCB needs to be connected. 

 My Problem is I don´t have an micro HDMI cable here right now to see if 
 the Cape is recognized by the board or not. 
 I was under the impression that I wouldn´t need it, because it was plug 
 and play :(

 Has anybody an BBB running with this cape and display and can give me 
 some tips on how to configure it.

 Kindest Regards and many Thanks in advance.

 Berthold

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