Re: [beagleboard] eMMC lifetime?

2014-06-30 Thread Alexander Holler

Am 29.06.2014 17:21, schrieb myerscountr...@gmail.com:

I was just curious -

I'm using my BBB rev C as a datalogger (among other things.) I'm going to
be writing approximately 200 bytes of data to a mySQL database a minute
pretty much 24x7 (somewhere around 300Kb per day I'm guessing.) I'm not
going to be doing much erasing of data; maybe occasional purges of old
data, but not very often. Mostly it will be used to store the sensor
values, and then I'll write a webserver front-end to access the data, do
aggregation and charting, etc.

At this point, my eMMC has about 2.3GB free (I did a lot of cleanup,
removing the x system, etc.) At this point, at the current write rate,
theoretically I could write for around 20 years before the drive fills up.

What I'm curious about though is - knowing my current usage, and that it's
not anticipated to change very much in the future, how well will the eMMC
hold up? I've been doing a lot of googling, but haven't really found any
write cycle information for the Kingston ke4cn2h5a on the board.



If do you don't care to lose some datas in case of crashes use a ramdisk 
and sync the contents occasionally (especially at a normal shutdown) to 
the eMMC.

[beagleboard] Robert Nelson wiki on making an image question

2014-06-30 Thread Charles Kerr
I have been following Robert Nelson's instructions on making my own image. 
 I got it all to work except the section labeled eMMC.  Are these 
instructions for one to run after one has booted their beagle bone black on 
the SD card?  Is there a script or instructions on how to make an SD card 
that will flash the eMMC?  Similar to the functionality one has when one 
downloads the official image for flashing?

Write an init script to call that script?

 an option for having flash.

[beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Debian - ssh via USB hangs after one minute of comm

2014-06-30 Thread jmjdeluca

On Beaglebone Black rev C Debian, I can always start a ssh session and log 
in.  I can enter a few commands, everything is fine.  After about one 
minute of elapsed time, the ssh drops communication.  Could even be in the 
middle of typing a new command.

100% repeatable (unfortunately).  Get in every time and works for a minute, 
every time.  Then hang.  I have to reboot to cycle this scenario again.

Additional info.  I can serial TTY over the same USB connection at any 
time, for as long as I want, even after the ssh hangs.  So the hang is 
local to the ssh connection - not the entire board or Linux itself.  Also, 
the same USB still has active file sharing with the PC at all times, so 
it's not the USB in general.

Thanks for any insight

Hello,


I would like to know can i use this* Beagle bone Black REV C* for *commercial 
use* ? also included software Debian for commercial ?


*if yes*


1) When can i get a large quantity of the product ? (currently only 1 is 
available per person)
2) Is there is any limitation on Editing the circuit ?
3) Is there is any limitation on editing the OS/software/logic ?
4) Will i get support for the BBB rev c if used commercially (without 
modifying the circuit)?
5) Will there be any clause of warranty void ? do you provide warranty on 
your product ?
6) Is there is any guide, books especially made for REV C which are very* 
in depth* ? (not for newbies)

*FYI* : I turned to BBB because i read online that the PI can't be used 
commercially (without commitment to large qty sale)


Hope you will soon answer the question

[beagleboard] Re: Accessing Adafruit Ultimate GPS from Debian BBB

It is not a GPS issue, it has something to do with the configuration of

Re: [beagleboard] Commercially using the REV C?

2014-06-30 Thread Gerald Coley
there are no restrictions to using the board in commercial products as long
as you understand that the board and the SW will change.  Long-tern support
of the HW and the SW is not guaranteed in its current form. In other words
once we make a change to the board and it is say rev D, then we no longer
make the rev C.

1) Find a distributor that will sell you the quantities you need.
2) The design is Open Source. Change it as you see fit.
3) Change it as you want to. No rules against it.
4) rev C will be supported as normal. But, we will not
accept dozens of boards into RMA because the board was used in away it was
not designed for. All support is community support
5) Warrant is the same except for #4 above.. I did not design the board for
your application. So, I cannot guarantee that it will work in your
application. You are totally responsible for that. I will not change the
design to fit your application or needs.
6) For the HW, did you look at the System Reference Manual?

Awesome thanks for this image, I've been trying to update Cloud9 on my 
previous install with next to zero luck on either the Angstrom or Debian

My own efforts to eliminate the debugging console issue in this build have 
also been futile, is there a work-around or a fix available yet? In the 
mid-term Resume (F8) seems to work, but it would be nice to be able to 
bypass the debugging console all-together like in previous releases.

application.

Unfortunately, it looks like the TI processor at the heart of the BBB 
cannot directly decode CMOS imagers.  All camera capes I have seen appear 
to require an ASIC between the imager  CPU to act as 'glue logic', which 
significantly raises costs.

Has anyone been able to connect a low-cost CMOS imager to the CPU without 
glue logic?  (Like it can be done with the RaspberryPi or the i.MX25)

Thanks!

[beagleboard] Shorted my BBB, no power/LED. Can I fix it?

2014-06-30 Thread jdbens
I did something careless.
I brushed the bottom of the BBB with an exposed USB connector while it was 
powered on. Now it won't turn on :(
No power LEDs, no sign of life. No sign of physically blown components, no 
spark when I shorted it. I've left it unplugged overnight and it's still 
dead.
Did I kill an IC? Any guesses as to which one? I'm thinking the PMIC is 
most likely from looking at the schematic.
Just curious if there is anything I can do to fix it. Any suggestions?

Hi,

I like to build a beaglebone black with a custom 10 lcd screen. But I 
can't find information how to configure my Debian distribution to use my

I had the same problem, but on OSX.

Firewall isn't the problem.
I had an old beagle bone white, and used to do this all the time. I got a
BBB and expected it to work, and it hasn't.
So I have a wifi usb stick and that works.

Someone said that something wasn't enabled, but I couldn't find what he was

I have had a BBB rev C on backorder with Jameco since April 9th. Called 
them last week and they say it is likely to be mid to late August until it 
ships. I looked around (Adafruit, Sparkfun, etc...) and they still say out 
of stock.

getting priority?

 Just about to post this to http://beagleboard.org/blog, but it

 Dude, where's my BeagleBone Black? I hear that question a LOT. No, we 
 weren't sleeping, but sometimes it takes a minute for a plan to come 
 together. And don't you love it when a plan comes together? 

 Your BeagleBone Black is on the way and below are the whys and hows. 

 Buying a BeagleBone Black back around October last year was easy---and 
 then suddenly they were gone. Having a big launch and then slowing 
 down to a more steady pace of production is what is normally expected. 
 Demand was strong, but distributors were showing a small amount of 
 stock and people were getting their boards on demand. Based on the 
 status, distributors had requested CircuitCo (the Richardson, Texas 
 based manufacturer of all official BeagleBoard.org boards) to provide 
 boards at a certain pace, and production dropped from about 6,000 a 
 week at launch to around 3,000 a week. 

 Then came Radio Shack, filling their stores with Make's Getting 
 Started with BeagleBone kit. Then the Christmas rush. Then the Georgia 
 Tech massively open online course on control of mobile robots hosted 
 on Coursera. We had a couple of small production boosts, but haven't 
 been able to make any dent in the demand. Everyone is starting to find 
 out what BeagleBone Black can do, using it in their classes, hobbies, 
 prototypes---and products. 

 When it comes to those people using a BeagleBone Black in an end 
 product, well, the BeagleBoard.org terms and conditions clearly say we 
 aren't responsible for the quality in those cases. Nevertheless, the 
 quality speaks for itself and many people are choosing to simply drop 
 them into things beyond just a few prototype units. In practice, we'll 
 never know unless you try to return a bunch of boards at once for 
 repairs. Our desire is that people using the boards in products work 
 directly with a contract manufacturer or distributor to enable boards 
 builds to be planned out in time and with terms and conditions that 
 won't hurt BeagleBoard.org's ability to supply classrooms, hobbyists 
 and professionals building prototypes. Still, if distributors show 
 stock, I expect people building products to continue to chew up some 
 of the board supply. 

 While these people building products are certainly sucking up a lot of 
 boards, it is clear they aren't the only source of the high demand. 
 Some of our distribution partners, most notably Adafruit and Special 
 Computing, put quantity limits of one board per customer on their 
 orders to help keep supply going to individual makers. I took a look 
 at Adafruit's website while they were showing some sock and observed 
 board disappearing at the rate of about 2-3 PER MINUTE. One tweet from 
 me and they were sold out again. 

 This all leads to the obvious conclusion: we need more capacity. To 
 accomplish this, we are taking a multiple prong approach of increasing 
 capacity at CircuitCo as well as bringing on an additional 
 manufacturer. These two prongs are summarized below. 

 Prong #1 - Ramping up production at CircuitCo 

 Ramping up production costs money. More test equipment is needed. 
 Orders on various parts must be accelerated. Additional staff must be 
 hired to run additional shifts. CircuitCo has been fantastic at taking 
 the risk for us, but the margins for BeagleBone Black aren't the 
 friendliest for them to take on these additional costs. At initial 
 launch, it is a benefit for them to get exposed to more customers for 
 their core business, complex circuit assembly and engineering 
 services, but shipping more of the exact same board isn't going to 
 give them a lot more exposure. 

 We're really close to shifting the distribution shipped on our boards 
 from Angstrom Distribution to Debian. Feedback from different people, 
 especially Adafruit, tells us this will improve usability in the 
 largest segments of our community. Angstrom Distribution is much more 
 customizable and is very friendly to professional developers looking 
 to tweak the most out of the system, but for many novices it 
 introduces a barrier to learning. Debian is the basis for Ubuntu, 
 includes ARM Cortex-A8 support in their mainline and is very familiar 
 to a huge population of developers. It also takes a bit more space on 
 the flash storage to provide the best user experience.

 While these people building products are certainly sucking up a lot of
 boards, it is clear they aren't the only source of the high demand.
 Some of our distribution partners, most notably Adafruit and Special
 Computing, put quantity limits of one board per customer on their
 orders to help keep supply going to individual makers. I took a look
 at Adafruit's website while they were showing some sock and observed
 board disappearing at the rate of about 2-3 PER MINUTE. One tweet from
 me and they were sold out again.

 This all leads to the obvious conclusion: we need more capacity. To
 accomplish this, we are taking a multiple prong approach of increasing
 capacity at CircuitCo as well as bringing on an additional
 manufacturer. These two prongs are summarized below.

 Prong #1 - Ramping up production at CircuitCo

 Ramping up production costs money. More test equipment is needed.
 Orders on various parts must be accelerated. Additional staff must be
 hired to run additional shifts. CircuitCo has been fantastic at taking
 the risk for us, but the margins for BeagleBone Black aren't the
 friendliest for them to take on these additional costs. At initial
 launch, it is a benefit for them to get exposed to more customers for
 their core business, complex circuit assembly and engineering
 services, but shipping more of the exact same board isn't going to
 give them a lot more exposure.

 We're really close to shifting the distribution shipped on our boards
 from Angstrom Distribution to Debian. Feedback from different people,
 especially Adafruit, tells us this will improve usability in the
 largest segments of our community. Angstrom Distribution is much more
 customizable and is very friendly to professional developers looking
 to tweak the most out of the system, but for many novices it
 introduces a barrier to learning. Debian is the basis for Ubuntu,
 includes ARM Cortex-A8 support in their mainline and is very familiar
 to a huge population 

[beagleboard] Unable to Logout Debian

2014-06-30 Thread BB Kid
Hi, there !

I bought a BBB rev C recently and it was shipped with Debian pre-installed.

Everything works fine except when I logout (by clicking the green Exit 
icon at the right-bottom corner), the menu disappeared and nothing seems to 
happen.

After doing a  lot of googling (sorry that I'm new to debian, x terminal, 
lxde...), I was pointed to the command lxde-logout.  When I ran this 
command inside lxterminal, I got the following messages:

debian@beaglebone:~$ lxde-logout
Xlib:  extension RANDR missing on display :13.0.

Same results for the command lxsession-logout.

Same results for login as root.

Any ideas and any solution for this ??

 weren't sleeping, but sometimes it takes a minute for a plan to come 
 together. And don't you love it when a plan comes together? 

 Your BeagleBone Black is on the way and below are the whys and hows. 

 Buying a BeagleBone Black back around October last year was easy---and 
 then suddenly they were gone. Having a big launch and then slowing 
 down to a more steady pace of production is what is normally expected. 
 Demand was strong, but distributors were showing a small amount of 
 stock and people were getting their boards on demand. Based on the 
 status, distributors had requested CircuitCo (the Richardson, Texas 
 based manufacturer of all official BeagleBoard.org boards) to provide 
 boards at a certain pace, and production dropped from about 6,000 a 
 week at launch to around 3,000 a week. 

 Then came Radio Shack, filling their stores with Make's Getting 
 Started with BeagleBone kit. Then the Christmas rush. Then the Georgia 
 Tech massively open online course on control of mobile robots hosted 
 on Coursera. We had a couple of small production boosts, but haven't 
 been able to make any dent in the demand. Everyone is starting to find 
 out what BeagleBone Black can do, using it in their classes, hobbies, 
 prototypes---and products. 

 When it comes to those people using a BeagleBone Black in an end 
 product, well, the BeagleBoard.org terms and conditions clearly say we 
 aren't responsible for the quality in those cases. Nevertheless, the 
 quality speaks for itself and many people are choosing to simply drop 
 them into things beyond just a few prototype units. In practice, we'll 
 never know unless you try to return a bunch of boards at once for 
 repairs. Our desire is that people using the boards in products work 
 directly with a contract manufacturer or distributor to enable boards 
 builds to be planned out in time and with terms and conditions that 
 won't hurt BeagleBoard.org's ability to supply classrooms, hobbyists 
 and professionals building prototypes. Still, if distributors show 
 stock, I expect people building products to continue to chew up some 
 of the board supply. 

 While these people building products are certainly sucking up a lot of

[beagleboard] Info required for using BBB with 10.1 Display

2014-06-30 Thread lee . shaw
Hello, myself and a colleague currently have a project to use the BBB with 
a 10.1 Display.

We currently have an Android build (4.1.2 for AM335X EVM platform) that 
works with a 7 display.

The resolution of the 10.1 is the same as the 7 (1024 x 600) as is the 
hardware pin out.

The 10.1 does not work.  We think the issues may be at the software driver 
level.

Does anybody have any info on how to do the following:

· Identify which drivers to use for a particular display

· Provide the correct settings in the driver for the display

[beagleboard] Manually Burning on-board eMMC

2014-06-30 Thread Brendan Bleker

Hello,

I'm looking for information/steps on getting a board to boot from the 
on-board eMMC.

I've got a board design based on a Beaglebone Black, I'm able to mount an 
SD card and boot successfully. 
I'm looking for instructions on how to manually program the on-board eMMC 
(4Gb) using a modified version of the TI Arago distribution. 
I'd like to get an idea as to how to do this manually, since I would like 
to put these boards into production.

I've tried the same steps required for flashing an SD MMC, but was not 
successful.

Thanks in advance for the help.
Brendan

 Hi Gerald, thanks for taking the time.

 Unfortunately, it appears that both of these capes rely on an ASIC to
 perform the glue logic between the CMOS imager and the TI CPU, which
 greatly increases BOM costs.

 I'm currently trying to find a chip that can beat a $7 Freescale i.MX25
 connected directly to a sub-$3 CMOS imager for a cost-sensitive application.

 Is there anyway to connect a CMOS imager directly to the TI Cortex A8?

Hi Gerald, thanks for that useful info.

The AM37xx does indeed appear to have a video input port capable of 
interfacing to CMOS imager.  Unfortunately for us the $14 per chip price is 
too much for this next application... although a high-end product using 
this chip could be of use eventually.

[beagleboard] Using bitwise not(~) gives syntax error - Can't clear multiple bits at once

2014-06-30 Thread Michael M
Hello, 

I've written a PRU program which manipulates bits in one of the registers. 
The program does not compile with PASM when I use the ~ operator.

Setting multiple bits works:

or  r3.b0, r3.b0, 13// Set bit 3


but clearing multiple bits does not:

and r3.b0, r3.b0, ~(13)// Clear bit 3


The exact compiler error is  Error: Syntax error in parameter 3. This 
should work since it comes straight from the TI wiki on the 
PRU: 
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/PRU_Assembly_Instructions#Bitwise_AND_.28AND.29

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Michael

[beagleboard] Re: Beaglebone Black Debian - ssh via USB hangs after one minute of comm

2014-06-30 Thread John DeLuca

I SOLVED THIS!

It was due to my installing network-manager while trying to get my Wifi to 
be recognized.  I found a Web reference that said there was some config 
file contamination with ssh and after installing network-manager.  I didn't 
believe it, but what the heck?

I ran
# apt-get -remove --purge network-manager
...let it finish.

ssh is back working like a charm.

I can't say know the exact contamination (no before/after comparison), or 
how the -remove returned the config to normal, but it resolved the problem.

William - not not sure you have the same problem cause as mine, but this 
is worth a short.  I was running Win7Pro on the host.  I was using the 
USB2.0 port.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Debian - ssh via USB hangs after one minute of comm

Well, I built my own custom kernel, and used Robert Nelsons instructions
and minimal rootfs back then. I am pretty sure there was no
network-manager. I was using Win 7 enterprise back then, now I am using
Win7 ultimate. Both are / were x64.

 Which BBB? 2GB/4GB?

 We stripped almost all the locales to save space.


 https://github.com/beagleboard/image-builder/blob/master/scripts/chroot.sh#L214

 so remove: /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/01_nodoc

 Then either re-install locales-all or the one you want.

[beagleboard] ssh on debian 3.15 kernel

2014-06-30 Thread Charles Kerr
I wanted to learn more about building my own image for my BBB. I followed 
Robert Nelson's instructions, and believed I built an SD image for the 3.15 
kernel.  I booted off the SD card.  Is ssh enabled following those 
instructions? I ask, because I can see the BBB on the network, and can ping 
it. But SSH is refused.  I don't have another way to connect to the BBB.

Just wanted to check, before I go hunting around to see what I missed in 
the instructions.

 Anyone who is active in the BeagleBoard.org forum and has developed a cape
 for beagle.

Certainly people who have only contributed software should be able to
join. I like the idea that some sort of output is required. How about
answered a query on the forum to the satisfaction of the person who
asked the question AND either has a commit to one of the repositories
at http://github.com/beagleboard or a design listed at
http://beaglebonecapes.com?

  Same results for the command lxsession-logout. 
  
  Same results for login as root. 
  
  Any ideas and any solution for this ?? 
  
  Thanks !!

Re: [beagleboard] ssh on debian 3.15 kernel

2014-06-30 Thread William Hermans
Which rootfs image did you use ? barefs ? or Minimal ? barefs you'll have
ot apt-get install openssh-server ( or other suitable ssh server ).
minimalfs should come with openssh-server on it, unless it has changed
recently.

 I wanted to learn more about building my own image for my BBB. I followed

 kernel.  I booted off the SD card.  Is ssh enabled following those
 instructions? I ask, because I can see the BBB on the network, and can ping
 it. But SSH is refused.  I don't have another way to connect to the BBB.

 Just wanted to check, before I go hunting around to see what I missed in
 the instructions.

    Oh, thanks! I will try to get it later. I had allways use email to read

since I am form mainland China and can't access this board form web page. :-(  
Any way, thansk for your work and help.

Sorry for my late answer. I have posted my kernel configuration on March 5. 
Please take a close look at my postings. You mave have to log in to google to 
see the attachments.

hi,quikcjack. I had been fallowing the topic for some dates.

I plan to build a CNC controler  with BBBlack.
I want to get your kernel config to make a PREEMPT/PREEMPT_RT capable kernel 
too.

whould you please seem me your kernel confiuration too? Thanks.

  

 2014-03-19 16:47:58 : 

It's really nice to see that there is some interest in having a 
PREEMPT/PREEMPT_RT capable kernel for the BBB.

Well, it's relatively easy to compile a kernel. If you want to develop 
applications for the BBB you need a compiler/toolchain. So I guess you might 
have that already. The instructions to compile a kernel are explained at 
https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/tree/3.8.

I could send you my modified kernel configuration. You simply have the replace 
the original kernel configuration to create the PREEMPT capable kernel.

Hi thats great!

Is that possible to have your compiled kernel for BBB? I would avoid the 
compiling process.
Thanks a lot,

I have recently tested kernel 3.8.13-rt9 
(https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/tree/3.8-rt) using 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clrkwllms/rt-tests.git. I am 
using Ubuntu 12.04.4. The load was created using stress –cpu 1 which generates 
a cpu load of about 100%. I then used cyclictest:


root@ubuntu-armhf:/home/ubuntu/rt-tests# ./cyclictest -l100 -m -n -t1 -p99 
-i400 -q
# /dev/cpu_dma_latency set to 0us
T: 0 ( 770) P:99 I:400 C:100 Min: 14 Act: 19 Avg: 18 Max: 132


uname -a reports:
root@ubuntu-armhf:/home/ubuntu/rt-tests# uname -a
Linux ubuntu-armhf 3.8.13-rt9-00899-g160e771 #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 19 10:49:36 
CEST 2013 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux


I am absolutely surprised that the result is looking that good.

I am trying to figure out how to create a kernel for the BBB that supports 
PREEMPT_RT. It's kind of strange that the BBB's default kernel does not even 
have PREEMPT activated. Such a board doesn't fit to many embedded applications 
where we need at least some kind of determinism. It is even worse, that nobody 
seems to care about this problem. Contrary to that, the Raspberry PI's standard 
kernel has PREEMPT activacted from the very beginning.

I have tested Robert Nelsons kernel 3.8.13-r9 
(https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/tree/3.8-rt). It does not have 
PREEMPT_RT activated by default. When doing so, it does not boot. But 
activating PREEMPT does work. However, development of this branch has stopped 
several months ago. The official source for RT Linux (3.8.13) has evolved since 
then. Meanwhile there's an rt17 patch set 
(https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.8/). Did anybody give 
this a try? Does it work with the BBB?
