Re: [beagleboard] Cranky BBB

2013-12-20 Thread rattus
Therein lies the rub. In order to delete the 
/etc/dropbear/dropbear_rsa_host_key file, I first need to log in. Going in 
through the Cloud9 console, I can only access things in the cloud9 tree. 
Cannot telnet or ssh in to the BBB via either USB or Ethernet interfaces. 
How do I get in?

Re: [beagleboard] Cranky BBB

2013-12-20 Thread rattus
Sadly, I don't have the appropriate cable.

I've tried telnet, ssh, and Cloud9 console via both USB or Ethernet, no go. 
I get the startup Web page and Cloud9 just fine. This is one of the latest 
batch (like last week?): BeagleBone Black rev 00A6 S/N 4713BBBK2106

Is perhaps my only option to burn an SD card, but then again, would that 
image be any different than that which is loaded into the EMMC? BTW, I'm on 
either a Mac or Linux host.

There's got to be a way in!

[beagleboard] Userspace RAM access

2014-01-10 Thread rattus
Hi - I'm looking for a way to address files in RAM only in order to 
minimize eMMC writes; there will be a lot of manipulation of contents that 
I'd like to keep away from nonvolatile storage, and then would like to save 
in full block writes if possible.

Sorry to noob this, but is there a way to ensure RAM access via /dev/xxx?

[beagleboard] Re: can no longer connect via os x

2014-01-10 Thread rattus
Is it possible that your router reassigned the DHCP address?

If so, you might access the router and see what's assigned, on my Linksys 
router the table is under Status->Local Network->DHCP Clients table; my BBB 
running Debian shows up as 'arm'. I'm assuming you're not running the 
default Angstrom with the hosed dropbear issue as you've been able to ssh 
in the past. DAMHIK ;-)

[beagleboard] BBB wifi lockup

2014-01-26 Thread rattus
I'm having an issue with my USB wifi adapter, in that if there is no 
activity in an SSH session for a while (i'm guessing for an hour or so), 
the board locks up, becomes unresponsive even to ethernet requests, etc. 
and must be rebooted. If I maintain activity on the link (running top, for 
example) everything runs fine. 
I am running Debian Wheezy from the eMMC and am using an Edimax 7811 wifi 
adapter. iwconfig tells me power management is off.
I have run a watch on dmesg to see if any messages are being output before 
lockup - there are none.
Any ideas?

That didn't work for me, but the saga continues: (I'm now testing the 
Debian 2014.1.29 image)

with the following steps:

1) Using the wpa-supplicant daemon
2) turning wireless-power off (this seems to work only when I use 
wpa-supplicant)
3) pinging my router once a minute

I still lose ssh-ability after a few hours of inactivity.

I did notice this when monitoring dmesg:
...

So it looks like wlan0 is getting de -and- reauthenticated every 10 minutes

[beagleboard] Re: SSH connection by wifi

2014-02-07 Thread rattus
Looks like your wifi IP address is 192.168.2.101. You should be able to ssh 
into there.

As far as the Edimax wifi adapter goes (I have the EW-7811Un) you'll be 
initially successful, but after an hour or so of inactivity, the link will 
die. The entire wlan0 link will die - no ping, no ssh, nothing. I am now 
trying the Netgear WNA1100, but am experiencing the same link lockup. I 
have disabled wifi power off. Same symptoms. I'm running one of Robert 
Nelson's latest Debian Wheezy images (01-29-14). 

I have seen some issues with acpi problems causing kworker daemons to 
multiply, (and my hungriest process is kworker) but haven't figured out a 
way to monitor that without being "live" on the wifi connection, which 
modifies the behavior, much like Schrödinger's Cat problem. Will keep 
plugging away. 

How can one prevent acpi from starting in the first place?

If you have an Ethernet cable connected to the router, it's less than 30 
seconds to a live network connection, either hard-wired or the wifi. I've 
found that without the RJ-45 cable, wifi takes 3 minutes or so to come up - 
waiting for the eth0 to respond?

Seems the delay is the same every time, unless eth0 is connected.

Am I the only one that has both wlan(0 for the Edimax, 1 for the Netgear) 
and eth0 die after a few hours? AS I am trying to get a headless server set 
up, it is frustrating...

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Wifi hangs during SSH sessions on BBB

2014-03-17 Thread rattus
I still have the same problem as well (on Debian); mucked with the 
net.ipv4.tcp_* 
parameters, still no joy in keeping either the WiFi or hard Ethernet ports 
alive more than a few hours. This is not just SSH - the ports become 
unresponsive to ping as well. Given my application requires availability, 
this is a problem.

The connections *seemed* to say alive longer when I set up a process to 
ping the router every 5 minutes or so, but still died eventually.

Does anyone have suggestions as to how we might monitor the ports to 
determine the cause of death? I've been netstat'ing, logging and ps'ing 
every way I could imagine, with no clue as to what is causing the problem. 

Guess I could set up a cron job to kill the board every few hours, but that 
seems inelegant ;-)

[beagleboard] Long-term kernel choice

2015-05-14 Thread rattus
I'm working on a project that's due for completion in the next 3-6 months 
on the BBB with multiple instances will stay in the field for approx. 3 
years. We will have low-speed access to the devices, 1G GSM at best, but 
probably not enough to entertain onsite kernel updates during that time.
I am especially interested in solid wifi, USB and SPI implementations.
What say you, BB community - what current or soon-to-be current longterm 
kernel version would you take to your desert island?

Thanks,

[beagleboard] 4.1.0-rc3-bone1.2 trapped in board - no SSH or serial

2015-05-17 Thread rattus
Hi - my weekend experiment was to build a Debian Jessie with 
4.1.0-rc3-bone1.2 kernel image to play with; sadly, while it appears to be 
running, I have no way to communicate with it. Pings to its IP address are 
responded to promptly, but SSH login attempts are rejected immediately, and 
there is no apparent serial path either.
I checked the SSH entries in /etc/init on the SD image; they appear to be 
set to enable the sshd server. 
Anyone able to coax the beast out of its shell?

Thx, Mike

Yes, I was running Robert's BBB instructions. I agree it's probably a 
systemd startup issue, but haven't been able to find setup instructions 
that merely altered file contents - which I can do while burning the SD - 
rather than using systemctl on a running system. Can't start SSH without 
SSH... although the full openssh-server package seems to have been 
installed in the debian-8.0-minimal... rootfs.

[beagleboard] Re: BeagleBone: Cross-Compiling Tool-Chain on Mac OS X?

2015-06-01 Thread rattus
If anyone's interested, I have a semi-painful flow for dumping a 
user-created image to SD under Debian running on a VirtualBox VM under Mac 
OS X. The image was created using Robert's flow in Debian. I have been 
quite happy with VirtualBox lately, far more than I can say for the crooks 
(take your money, provide zero support) at Parallels.

Here are my notes from the last time:

1) follow the instructions at eewiki.net to build a new image in the 
VirtualBox VM.

2) insert SD card into reader slot on MacBook Pro

3) shut down the Linux VM and VirtualBox

4) make sure the SD card adapter switch is in writable position. Insert 
card into SD reader slot

5) open Disk Utility, and erase the card

6) unmount the UNTITLED partition

7) cd to your VM directory (typically "$HOME/VirtualBox VMs/")

8) edit the .vbox file to remove the .vmdk entry.

9) sudo vi ~/Library/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml; remove lines that reference 
sd-card.vmdk

10) rm *.vmdk

11) run sudo chown  /dev/disk1*

12) run sudo chmod 777 /dev/disk1*

13) run sudo VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename 
./sd-card.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/disk *

15) unmount the /dev/disk<1 or 2>s1 (UNTITLED) partition

16) In the VirtualBox control Panel, select Storage, right-click and Add 
Hard Disk. Choose existing Disk. Choose sd-card.vmdk

17) in Disk Utility, unmount the UNTITLED partition again

18) Start up Linux VM

19) in  Debian, run lsblk to determine the new SD card partition (/dev/sdb1 
usually)

20) sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb


21) follow instructions at 
https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black#BeagleBoneBlack-SetupmicroSD/SDcard
 
to set up the card.


22) shut down the VM in Virtualbox

23) remove the SD card from the storage category in the VirtualBox control 
panel

24) eject and remove the SD card

Good Luck - Mike

[beagleboard] BBB P8/P9 GPIO pin availability

2015-09-04 Thread rattus
Just want to verify something... I an *not* using HDMI, McASP, gpmc, UARTs, 
the ADC or I2Cs. I am using the EMMC. Just SPI0 and a bunch of GPIOs.

Can I assume that any P8/P9 pins labeled as GPIO in some mode, and *not* 
labeled "allocated for EMMC2"* on Derek Molloy's helpful P8/9 charts is 
available for GPIO purposes?

Are there any other preallocated P8/9 GPIO-potential pins I need to watch 
out for? Just checking before I commit the cape from Hell to fab.

Thanks, 

Mike

* = gpmc_be1n, gpmc_clk, gpmc_dat0-7, or P8 pins 3-6 and 20-25.

Thanks guys. I will not be driving anything at boot, as all the cape pins 
are initially configured as inputs.

Surprisingly, I did read sections 6.7 and 8.3. It would have been nice if 
the P8 pins had been referenced in those diagrams, rather than having to 
trace the schematics.

Re: [beagleboard] BBB P8/P9 GPIO pin availability

2015-09-05 Thread rattus
Got it. Sounds like a DAMHIK situation; -) 

So you're saying that VDD_3V3B does not come up quickly enough to power 
external devices before the boot configuration is read from the pins? You'd 
think we should have held off boot a little longer until supplies settle. 
Given there's no P8/9 accessible way to prolong boot, short of driving a 
tiny solenoid to hold the reset button down a little longer, how might one 
isolate the input protection diodes until bot is safely started?

I think my answer lies in that the cape is also providing the 5V to the 
BBB, so I can delay that until my own 3.3V supplies stabilize. Seems a 
waste of the 3.3V regulator on theBB though. Perhaps manipulating the 
PWR_BUT (PB_IN signal on the TPS65217C PMIC) on P9 might solve this...

My loadings are a single LVC gate on each line, so basically nothing there.

Thanks for the advice. Do you think a delayed reset via the PWR_BUT signal 
would provide the answer?

You may have seen I mentioned that no signals would be driven onto the BBB 
expansion headers until enabled to do so (if I forgot to mention that, they 
won't be); all other pins are inputs to the expansion card and thanks to 
Graham's advice will be powered first to ensure protection diodes will not 
interfere with the boot configuration.

Re: [beagleboard] BBB P8/P9 GPIO pin availability

2015-09-07 Thread rattus
This does beg one last question - as I am using expansion connector pins to 
provide chip selects for numerous peripherals, what is the default state of 
the AM335X pins at powerup, until the boot configuration is loaded? I've 
slogged through the TRM as best I could, but want to make sure we're not 
inadvertently enabling multiple chip selects that may drive competing, say, 
SDOs (peripheral) into SDI (cpu) before the boot configuration is loaded.

Ideally, they would be defaulted as inputs or tri-stated outputs, in which 
case a weak pulldown on the peripheral CSn lines should keep things quiet. 
Despite my best efforts at searching the 4K+ pages of the TRM, I have not 
found a clear answer as to the pre-boot load default pin configuration. I 
probably missed it, but my search-fu fails me.

If it were so... but it seems with such an abundance of modes and pins, a 
number of the pins I am using are in a variety if input, output, hi-Z and 
I/O defaults at powerup, most often with pullup or pull-downs. The good 
news is, I've added enough gating and the additional fast-starting Vdd to 
avoid conflicts. SPI attached peripherals (powered early) all need commands 
shifted in to drive outputs, so that's safe too.

Now for the *next* Beaglebone, innocuous I/Os would be a great feature...

Anything else can be dangerous to the pins.  But, as Charles says, RTFM.

Completely understood; however, assuming one could meet board area and 
timing constraints, it might be possible to wrap the processor with a 
circuit prophylactic, as it were...

I've also been part of several ARM-based core silicon projects, and it 
would have been possible for that (i.e. consistent pre-reset I/O state) to 
have been addressed at the chip level.

[beagleboard] Accessing SPI EEPROM (AT25 type)

2015-11-05 Thread rattus
I have set up SPI on my BBB (spidev_test works fine) and have 
compiled/installed the AT25 SPI EEPROM kernel module. I am missing the 
knowledge/piece that allows me to access the AT25 using the read/write 
calls. The at25 spi eeprom is a proxy/training ground for a much more 
complex spi device interface I need to build. Anyone have a pointer that 
can get me moving? TIA.
