[beagleboard] Re: Device tree overlays may load manually, but not at boot.

2014-08-16 Thread Terje Froysa


 Thanks for good advice!

 
I have taken care of the information for my further work.
I will be away for 3 weeks now, so i can't attend this forum for a while 
if additional posts are made.
 
Best regards
Terje Froysa

[beagleboard] Re: Beaglebone Black Rev. C: Protecting GPIO pins during boot until SYS_RESETn signal is HI

 What kind of solutions are others out there using to protect GPIO pins

 Thanks.


As soon as you did not post anything particular about your concern - not a 
schematic, nor description, the only advice is: do not use any pins 
multiplexed with other functions and use opto-isolators for any other. In 
many many cases direct connection works of course. No need in any FETs.

[beagleboard] Can one read the ADC as a non-root user?

2014-08-16 Thread cl
I want to read the ADC inputs on my Beaglebone Black without root
privilege.  Using the Adafruit_BBIO.ADC package in Python requires
root privilege, are there any ways of doing it without?

[beagleboard] Re: ADC reading by PRU

Hello Rodrigo,

 I was planning to use the libpruio Library (my assembly is a little bit 
 rusty and this library should help me to achieve this task) but last week 
 I've got stuck into this seg fault issue.

 Is it possible to use the libpruio (and PRUSSDRV) on Angstrom or should I 
 install Ubuntu or Debian instead?


libpruio needs libsupc++, which isn't available on Angström (AFAIK). I 
recommend to install Ubuntu or Debian.

[beagleboard] Re: Updated bone101

2014-08-16 Thread mtn_beagle
Jason,


The Bone 101 page has updated to reflect Rev C and 4 GB.

From this paragraph on the 101 page: See updates 
http://beagleboard.github.io/Support/BoneScript/updates/ for the 
step-by-step guide.
The link to update images from the revised page 
http://beagleboard.github.io/Support/BoneScript/updates/
results in a page not found error.

Also, the paragraph below that still points to the Beagleboard/Angstrom 
page. There is no explanation of the earlier boards shipping with Angstrom 
nor the Rev C boards shipping with Debian and a link to an updates page.

One question regarding links from this page. When a new user connects to 
the board via USB, unless a wifi module has been magically installed, or, 
instead, the connection is over ethernet through a router, without internet 
connection sharing enabled on the PC, will the links not fail? 
Regards,
David

[beagleboard] MachineKit LinuxCNC on the BeagleBoard Black

2014-08-16 Thread John Dammeyer

I've created the MachineKit SD card image.  Verified as non-corrupted.  
I've held down the Boot button and powered up the Beaglebone Black.  I use 
PuTTY on WIN7 to connect. I log in as machinekit. Enter the same as 
password.  And the system hangs there doing nothing else.  Clearly it runs 
to a point since getting to the sign on point is at least a little bit 
successful.

login as: machinekit
Debian GNU/Linux 7

BeagleBoard.org BeagleBone Debian Image 2014-05-19

Support/FAQ: http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian
machinekit@beaglebone.local's password:

Removing the SD card and booting from the eMMC I've still got my Angstrom 
image so the same approach does work so the hardware and connections are 
all ok.
login as: root
root@beaglebone.local's password:
root@beaglebone:~# date
Sat Aug 16 12:58:47 PDT 2014
root@beaglebone:~# lsb_release -a
Distributor ID: Angstrom
Description:Angstrom GNU/Linux v2012.12 (Core edition)
Release:v2012.12
Codename:   Core edition
root@beaglebone:~#

Don't have the slightest idea where to even start since the image didn't 
list a root password either.  I am using only a 4GB SD card.  Perhaps I 
should pick up an 8GB?
Thanks
John

Use group permissions. If you are part of a group and ADC is part of the
same group, you can access ADC without being root.

Re: [beagleboard] Asterisk server on BBB

2014-08-16 Thread Artie Lekstutis
In case anyone else is interested in running an Asterisk server on the 
BBB I've found that http://www.beaglebone-asterisk.org performs fairly 
well. Even better than on one of my older x86 systems. After doing some 
testing I'm ready for an initial deployment. Looks like it should be 
able to handle at least 6 simultaneous calls, which is more than I'll 
ever need. I'll post updates if I find anything interesting (good or bad).


It's running on a 64G micro-SD card:
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Asterisk 11.8.0
FreePBX 2.11.0.35

Later,
Artie

I'm looking for a replacement for my antique Trixbox Asterisk

communications systems (me).

The distribution http://www.beaglebone-asterisk.org/ is currently
my focus. Is there anything I should know about it (good or bad)?
Is there anything better for such use?

My occupation is embedded systems, not IT. I'd prefer to have a
reasonable GUI to manage the configuration where possible. FreePbx
seems to provide that in place of Trixbox. Not that I'm afraid of
scripting or re-building kernels, I just have other things to do too.

Thanks!
