[beagleboard] Re: Mono on last debian

2014-04-06 Thread Erwin Ried
Well in debian my bbb starts in about 18 secs and it is  very snappy. In 
ubuntu was very laggy to do anything. Not sure why but I just played about 
10 minutes and decided to go back (I am using a small touch cape, so maybe 
the experience was worse than normal because the small screen).

Differences besides the speed I noticed: Debian does not allow me to switch 
usb dongles without restarting, and the touch sensitivity was screwed in 
ubuntu.

 How much slower was Ubuntu compared to Debian?

 And do you have any insights as to what the issues/differences were?

 Thanks

Windows re-enables the enforcement automatically after 1 restart

 Just be warned that it disables Signature enforcement completely. 
 To re-enable it run last two commands and restart.

 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

Re: [beagleboard] Can't turn off / reboot

Thanks Robert, is this related with the hanging daemon too (the one related

  Why? (there is no debian in the internal mmc) 

 It's just a permission problem with systemd and a new feature enabled 
 in that image. (USB serial gadget driver enabled over the usb 
 connection) 

 However systemd is not allowing you to reboot/halt 

 To fix: 

 sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@ttyGS0.service 

 and hard reboot it.. 

 It'll then work as expected. 

 I'm waiting for a response from systemd experts on what we can do.

[beagleboard] How to mount the microsd with exec permissions?

2014-03-28 Thread Erwin Ried
Hello in the last debian version for the bbb how do I mount the microsd 
with exec permissions?

I tried:
root@beaglebone:/media/E868-3288/mono# mount -t vfat -o 
remount,rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1002,fmask=0022,dmask=0077,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks,exec
 
/dev/mmcblk0 /media/E868-3288/
root@beaglebone:/media/E868-3288/mono#

And it does not display any error, but it does not work, I can't change 
permissions of the files.

Thanks!

2014-03-28 Thread Erwin Ried
Oh wow! nice, thanks! 

Just for future reference (I am trying to compile mono, and since the flash 
can't fit the complete source and the sd was not allowing me to run the .sh 
due this vfat thing):

   1. Insert the sd
   2. df (and check the one mounted as /media/something
   3. fdisk /dev/mmcpath used by /media/something
   4. p (list partitions), d (delete all), n (create new partition)
   5. mkfs /dev/mmcpath used by /media/something
   6. reboot

2014-03-28 Thread Erwin Ried
OK, I tried in ubuntu and since it runs slow, I just switched back. Here is 
how it worked in my BBB (or How to get mono in the Beaglebone Black):


   1. Configure the SD 
   
https://groups.google.com/forum/embed/?place=forum/beagleboardshowsearch=trueshowpopout=trueshowtabs=truehideforumtitle=trueparenturl=http%3A%2F%2Fbeagleboard.org%2FCommunity%2FForums#!category-topic/beagleboard/support/-I08ZxSpau8
   2. Change dir to the SD, run
   git clone git://github.com/mono/mono.git
   3. sudo apt-get install automake
   sudo apt-get install libtool
   sudo apt-get install gettext
   sudo apt-get install libgdiplus
   sudo apt-get install pkg-config
   4. ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
   ...wait few minutes
   5. make get-monolite-latest
   6. make EXTERNAL_MCS=${PWD}/mcs/class/lib/monolite/gmcs.exe
   ...wait few hours
   7. make install
   ...wait about an hour
   
Mono should be running by now, check that:

root@beaglebone:/home/debian/Desktop/test# mono --version
Mono JIT compiler version 3.4.1 (master/02b95e9 Sat Mar 29 01:45:18 UTC

And compiling something:


   1. nano test.cs
   2. Type/paste the code below*
   3. mcs test.cs
   4. mono test.exe
   5. Profit!


using System;
internal class Program
{
private static void Main()
{
var d = DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(1); // Just to test Hard-float stuff
Console.WriteLine(Mono reporting for duty at {0}, d);
}
} 
 


   1. 
   2.
