[beagleboard] WEC 7 Can't BOOT on BBB using SD Card
Hi friends, I have loaded a 4GB SD card with the MLO, EBOOTSD.nb0 and NK.bin that comes with the Demo package WEC7 BBB 01.05.00, Also I have formatted the card with Fat32 and 4096 byte sectors (using hp format tool), and I have used the TI SD card utility for flashing the SD card, Also I have pushed the user button before power up, But noting happens!!! In some procedure they said to format using hp format tool, copy mlo,ebootsd,nk.bin in correct order and press usr boot button and power up.. but not booting... when I power the board up the leds won't flash, , So I think it's a boot problem, How can I be sure that the MLO is in the first sector of the SD card? I have loaded angstrom img succsfuly on BeagleBone Black. I am using 4gb sd card, windows 7 and virtual machine xp. so please consider the issue and help me...

[beagleboard] Radio Spares (UK) - BBB - Out of Stock
Hello, Is it really the case that BBB rev c is going to be out of stock until late September in the UK? Radio Spares (UK) state ETA of late September before restock. Meanwhile, really keen to get my hands on a BBB and 3 months is an awfully long to wait if I've misunderstood the supply problem.

Re: [beagleboard] Radio Spares (UK) - BBB - Out of Stock
They may be out of stock, but bear in mind they are not the only place on the planet that sells them either. Try ordering from boardzoo, digikey, adafruit, Newark, Allied, or a whole list of other places.

[beagleboard] Pixel Clock of an LCD for BBB
We are using a custom LCD with BBB. We changed the kernel for LCD to work. But we couldn't figure out the pixel clock value of LCD. It is working but image is shaking a little bit. We only know that LCD has a Data Clock value of 40 ns (25 MHz). How can we calculate the correct pixel clock value? Here is a screenshot of LCD's manual: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-D2bTeCEUwPE/U5bH99UZNuI/AN0/c7L3MaBQWbw/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-06-10+at+11.52.43.png -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Re: [beagleboard] BeagleBone Black SPI receive rx fail using the ioctl
If BBB to be a master then th sclk dirction should be output 0x150 0x10 is right?

On a side note, if you're struggling with SPI then I would recommend trying out the libsoc[1] librarary. Cheers, Jack.

[beagleboard] bitbake wrong kernel version

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Linux DVSDK Software release for OMAP3530 (includes Graphics SDK)
Hi, I too want to use OMAP35xx SDK (ti-dvsdk_omap3530-evm_4_01_00_09) version for Beagle Board which has OMAP 3530 processor. I could not find any information related to this in TI Sources or other websites. I would like to flash the boot image on to the Beagleboard, but before that I wanted to confirm whether such a thing works. Because, from the documentation, TI is referring to OMAP35xx EVM which is quite different from Beagleboard. Also, can you please throw some light on ARM Tool chains available and the corresponding architectures they support. As far as I know, one is 'V5TE' architecture which is implemented by GCArm Tools, while uCLibc MVArm9 are based on some other architecture which I am not sure of. Regards, Vinay Kumar.

For example, R31 could be used as a zero source, for single-bit mask composition. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

[beagleboard] Problem with first thing to do.
Hi. Im newly involve with beagleboard xm with a week linux experience. My objective is to run .cpp code file with opencv library in beagleboard xm. I googling around and wandering at this community forum, blogs and I found that several tutorials quite useful but I face a lot of problems and dont understand majority of the instruction or topic discussed since i still a newbies. I thought maybe any experts can give a hint or guide me for this embedded journey. My questions are: 1. I burn an angstrom image from http://beagleboard.org/latest-images/ for my beagleboard xm. Is it the most efficient os that i can use? or the kernel? 2.I also tried ubuntu 14.04 ( http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#raw_microSD_img) and it stuck after i update, upgrade, and try to boot into a gui environment. I refer to http://embedmastery.blogspot.com/2013/12/install-ubuntu-1310-on-beagle-board-xm.html and http://www.brianhensley.net/2013/01/beagleboard-xm-how-to-install-ubuntu.html for boot up and gui process. 3. Once i burn an angstrom image and boot beagleboard xm up, i read view blogs that advise to update and upgrade right after the first boot. So i tried to opkg update and opkg upgrade but it stuck at login screen after complete upgrade and reboot. What should i do? What the first thing i suppose to do after succesfully burn and boot? 4. When i gave up with update and upgrade, I just proceed and followed this tutorial here http://derekmolloy.ie/beaglebone/beaglebone-video-capture-and-image-processing-on-embedded-linux-using-opencv/ and it work until v2l-utils command. And i believe i need to install video4linux first. And how should i do it? Anyone could recommend me some links or books that i can refer as a newbie in linux on beagleboard xm.

[beagleboard] BBB won't boot up (PWR Led does a single quick blink)
My BBB (A5A) was working fine with ARM Arch (installed on the eMMC), but since yesterday it won't turn on. I don't know what changed. When I plug the power source or the USB cable the PWR Led quickly blinks, but the board doesn't turn on. If I press the POWER button, the PWR led does a single blink too, but it doesn't proceed to boot.

[beagleboard] Unifying cape overlays into boot .dtb for BeagleBoard.org boards
I'd like to discuss moving our current library of cape devicetree overlay sources into a single tree, including the boot .dtb files for BeagleBoard.org boards and moving towards enabling as much of the cape support into a single boot-time .dtb file with an approach similar to the cape-universal overlay (https://github.com/cdsteinkuehler/beaglebone-universal-io), but not in an overlay. First of all, I want to note this doesn't change my view on the importance of mainline support for devicetree overlays. They are still absolutely critical and highly useful, solving problems that cannot be solved through boot-time devicetrees. I'm simply looking for an approach that will complement the availability of overlays and provide the best user experience. Robert has been talking about the actions required to clean-up Debian Jessie support in another thread (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/beagleboard/2b8rArtfABY/A8d1JzmJa4IJ) and I suggested we should add a bit of a detour by cleaning up the cape support for the mainline kernel and switching away our primary process of supporting capes from using overlays to using a single devicetree file provided at boot. I promised a pull-request and hadn't gotten around to sending it until now (below). No architecture changes have been made in my pull-request, just bringing in the kernel devicetree source history. This suggestion is based on several assumptions, any number of which might be wrong. The assumptions (for which I'm looking for feedback/corrections): * The overlays pretty much all need to be compiled into the kernel if they are going to be loaded using kernel command-line arguments or /etc/capemgr for the majority of distros. While many cape devicetree use cases are perfectly happy with loading at run-time rather than boot-time, it seems there should be a mechanism for pushing cape support into the category of being available at boot-time across distributions. * The devicetree sources, including the primary boot .dts files, will eventually be removed from the kernel source tree. I'm not too sure if and when it'll really happen, but starting up a project to maintain the definitive beagleboard.org board devicetree files outside the kernel seems to make sense. Given the interdependency of the boot .dtb and the overlay .dtbo files, combining them into a single repository where every distribution can pick them up seems like a natural and obvious choice. There are of course some dependencies on kernel versions, but I believe most of those have settled out by now and we should be OK moving forward. * There seems to be little or no interest in my previous proposal to use cape EEPROMs to store the overlay fragments. Given some churn in the devicetree node definitions, it is likely this would have failed in bad ways anyway. It seems mostly reasonable to expect users to update their kernel and firmware to gain support for new add-on hardware and we mostly try to avoid regressions (with the seemingly ever-living exception of 3D graphics support), so I think I'm better aligned with the community to drop my older suggestion. Some people, including CircuitCo, are building capes without configuration EEPROMs now, so a different recommended mechanism seems like a requirement. * With the patches in our vendor 3.8 kernels and with all recent mainline kernels, performing userspace muxing operations has become easy again. It seems to be possible to turn on drivers not currently in use without an unacceptable level of bloat or conflict. This has been partially proven out using Charles' universal cape (https://github.com/cdsteinkuehler/beaglebone-universal-io), though I still have some concerns about conflicts. The result might be that there is still some number of overlays, but the approach of minimizing the overlays and instead relying on the existing loading/unloading mechanisms of the mainline drivers as much as possible feels right to me. * It will still be some time before devicetree overlay support is adopted in the mainline kernel. While I still see a strong need to have devicetree overlay support and CapeMgr in the mainline, the desire here is to optimize the user experience in the shortest term possible. Users get really confused by the errors that get generated by loading incorrect devicetree overlays and it is always nice when you can avoid confusing users. My suggestion is: * Maintain the source for .dtb and .dtbo files for all BeagleBoard.org boards at http://github.com/beagleboard/devicetree-source, overriding the sources in the mainline kernel when performing kernel builds. We can host pre-built .dtb and .dtbo files at a normailzed location outside the source repository for those that don't want to perform the builds, since I don't believe the binary format is changing any time soon other than the overlay support we utilize. Any patches accepted into mainline as long as these files still exist there as well should be merged to try to keep these in-line as long as
Re: [beagleboard] original bebopr capes for $49.99 (BEWARE)
That's very cheap, even if you add the costs of the extra hardware you need to use it. But beware: Some of the information on the boardzoo site is misleading: These capes are not supported by me (I'm owner of the design) because Circuitco has broken the agreement for distributing these capes by withholding my fee for the design. These 'refurbished' capes are first generation boards designed for the BeagleBone White and come _without_ firmware and stepper code license. These boards are a cheap way to run LinuxCNC on a BeagleBone Black provided you buy a Bridge, but my BeBoPr 3D printer software will not run on these capes. And I don't know whether Circuitco has solved the problems with the FETs overheating and fixed the other assembly errors on these 'refurbished' boards. So be warned, careful and know what you're buying. That being said, the boards are very cheap, and if you only want to control some stepper motors, grab your chance! -- Bas On 9-6-2014 23:41, danders@gmail.com wrote: Refurbished original BeBoPr capes are on sale at boardzoo.com for $49.99, limited qty available... http://boardzoo.com/index.php/bone-bebopr-ref.html -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

[beagleboard] BeagleBone Black SYS_RESETn function
Hi all, This is a simple question and it is possible that it's been answered elsewhere, but I have been unable to find a clear explanation. I'm using a BeagleBone Black in conjunction with another piece of hardware that has its own processor. If the BeagleBone gets hung up and communication between the two ceases, I want to be able to reset the BeagleBone. Can I simply ground the SYS_RESETn pin for a set amount of time in order to accomplish this? If so, what would a safe amount of time be? I've seen many examples where the SYS_RESETn pin is used to enable other devices, but I'm still unclear on whether or not I can reset the board this way. There is another topic posted today about doing a cold reset, but I would prefer to keep power to the BeagleBoard because I am using the 3.3V rail to power another device.

[beagleboard] Re: BeagleBone Proto Cape
Yes, the bus labeled SYS5V is connected to the DC barrel jack and the bus labeled VDD5V is connected to the output of the BeagleBone's 5V regulator. It should be the other way around to be completely consistent with the labeling on the BeagleBone's schematics. Of course it's only a concern if you are supplying 5V to the BeagleBone through the cape instead of through the barrel jack, in which case you'd want to use the SYS5V bus. There's a note on the product page explaining this. -Alex On Monday, June 9, 2014 5:00:43 PM UTC-4, an...@unilogic.net wrote: Be careful when using the BeagleBone Proto Cape : the 5V power labels are not correct.

[beagleboard] BBB Booting Without (Volatile) Memory Loss? - For UAV
Ladies, Gents, Bit of a newbie here, so i've got a rather basic question: I'm currently building a UAV flight controller for my masters thesis, with the BBB serving as the core computer. I've managed to boot with Ubuntu via the micro SD card (eMMC has not been flashed and still runs the original Angstrom Linux OS). I spent the last day or so configuring the Ubuntu OS and installing software (eg. NTP server, setting nameserver, installing g++, xVNC etc.) All of this is obviously lost once the BBB is powered down. My (fairly basic) question is: Is there an automated way to load/install all configuration changes/programs automatically on boot, to prevent doing this over and over? Some form of boot file? Does this behaviour change if the eMMC is flashed with the Ubuntu OS? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks for your time!

I have connected a DS1307 RTC (via a Tiny RTC I2C modules breakout board) to I2C2, and have added cape_enable=capemgr.enable_partno=BB-BONE-RTC to uEnv.txt such that my BBB does see this RTC as /dev/rtc1. I want to synchronize the system clock from *this* RTC on boot (and not the BBB's rtc-omap that is registered as /dev/rtc0), so I modified /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh such that HCTOSYS_DEVICE=rtc1. I thought that should do it... *after all, I was able to get a Raspberry Pi running Raspian to synchronize with a DS1307 on boot following these instructions: * *http://blog.elevendroids.com/2012/12/setting-up-hardware-rtc-in-raspbian/* http://blog.elevendroids.com/2012/12/setting-up-hardware-rtc-in-raspbian/ However, my BBB keeps synchronizing with rtc-omap on boot... and doesn't seem to be running hwclock.sh, either (time after boot is back in May, not the current time as I confirm by sudo hwclock -r -f /dev/rtc1). So where is Debian actually synchronizing the time in the boot process, and how do I tell it I want to use my battery-backed clock? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

[beagleboard] Can I get my monitor to work correctly with BBB, or can you recommend a different monitor?
My current monitor (Acer X213H) works poorly with the BBB. It appears as if the BBB picks an incompatible refresh rate and/or resolution when it boots, as the screen looks like a CRT TV with HSYNC issues. I tried reading the EDID to get an idea of the problem, and the BBB was unable. However, out of the blue, I woke up this morning to find that the BBB picked a compatible resolution sometime overnight... I'd prefer it always pick a compatible resolution. :) *(The BBB need not feel bad: The monitor also works poorly with the Raspberry Pi, though slightly less. I have been able to read the EDID on the Raspberry Pi, but must specify the following settings in boot.txt for the monitor to work at 1080P with the Raspberry Pi: hdmi_force_hotplug=1, hdmi_group=2, and hdmi_mode=82.)* Perhaps it is time to buy a new monitor. My requirements are that the monitor must be 1080P, support HDCP (for the sake of my PC, not the BBB or RPi), and have an HDMI input along with wither a DVI-D or MiniDP input for my PC. And the HDMI input must work with the BBB [and the Raspberry Pi, but I realize that's out of the scope of this Group]... Or is there a way to get this monitor working with the BBB, much like I got it working with the Raspberry Pi? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Re: [beagleboard] Need help getting Debian to sync the system clock with my RTC on boot (and not with rtc-omap)
So we have an init script to get the clock in the 'ball park' That explains the May-ish date that I keep booting up to, instead of what this dmesg entry implies: [1.025090] omap_rtc 44e3e000.rtc: setting system clock to 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC (946684800) But I am still unclear as to when Debian is synchronizing /dev/rtc0 to the system clock (seems to me this is happening before boot_scripts.sh is called). I am also stumped as to why /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh is not running (/etc/rcS.d/S05hwclock.sh is symlinked to /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh, and I did perform an rc.d-update hwclock.sh). If hwclock.sh was running, I would expect one of two outcomes (since I did change which RTC the script should be using): - If it ran before boot_scripts.sh, I would expect the system clock and omap_rtc would have the correct time. - If it ran after boot_scripts.sh, I would expect the system clock to have the correct time https://github.com/beagleboard/image-builder/blob/master/target/init_scripts/generic-debian.sh#L19 It's located at /etc/init.d/boot_scripts.sh You can either remove /etc/timestamp and it'll ignore resetting the clock on bootup. Looking at boot_scripts.sh, it doesn't look like removing this code would solve my problem. /dev/rtc1 is not being reset by anything. It still holds the current time from where I set it yesterday.

[beagleboard] Re: Best way to connect to Arduino via serial?
Now that I've been looking at things again, I think that I might have found a better buffer than the one I mentioned above. http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/SN74AHC126N/296-4535-5-ND/375702 Looking at the datasheet for this one, it passes data when the OE pins are high, and blocks when it's low. So to me, that would be more ideal because when the BBB is powered off/disconnected, the OE pins would be low, so it would be blocking. (For the other buffer, it is blocking when the OE pins are high.) A quick question though - for the VCC connection, should I power this through an external 3v3 supply, or will the 3v3 supply of the BBB suffice? I know that the OE pins will be powered from the 3v3 supply on the BBB, but wasn't sure if that should also be the case for the VCC. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

I have generally been delightedly following the Robert Nelson's debian kernel builds. https://rcn-ee.net/deb/wheezy-armhf and the day came where I wanted to try out a tiny patch adding BQL support to the beaglebone black. There is something of a huge gap between the available and largely conflicting data on the internet as to how to build a kernel properly and the lovely debs he provides.

Hi, John. Could you teach me how to disable touchscreen driver? should I delete the cape-bone-lcd3-00A0.dtbo under /lib/firmware ? or should I modify am335x-bone.dtb under /boot ? You need to disable the touchscreen in the kernel .config. Easiest way is to do the following: In the Kernel folder: make xconfig Under Device Drivers/Staging drivers Unselect TI Touchscreen Interface” Save and rebuild kernel Alternatively, edit the .config file: Search for CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_TI_AM335X_TSC=y Change to # CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_TI_AM335X_TSC is not set Save and rebuild kernel. http://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black Regards, John From: sun19...@gmail.com javascript: Reply-To: beagl...@googlegroups.com javascript: Date: Tuesday, June 10, 2014 at 2:10 AM To: beagl...@googlegroups.com javascript: Subject: [beagleboard] beaglebone ADC AIN0 AIN2 AIN3 cannot be used? I used beaglebone white to implement ADC. However, when I use a signal generator and oscilloscope to see the input wave, There is always 1.8V in AIN0 , and always 0V in AIN2 and AIN3, but it is correct when I use AIN1 4 5 6, Could anyone help me? Disable the touchscreen driver. Regards, John does that adc internal resistance cause it? Or how should I modify ADC-related files to get correct signal? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.
