Based on that, you are still running the old Angstrom default. Not the new
Debian image.

I've even successfully re-flashed mine with a SD card twice.  I can provide
any logs and feed back to whomever needs it to help solve this particular
speed bump in my development learning process.  Again, Thanks!

2014-05-17 Thread eb
I am experiencing a similar issue with my BBB.  I am a beginner and have 
not quite done debian yet on mine.  Just wondering, because I still am 
running Angstrom, might you have a command similar to yours below for 
Angstrom?

sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-fbdev
sudo reboot

When I run it:

root@beaglebone:~# sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
-sh: sudo: command not found
root@beaglebone:~# sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-fbdev
-sh: sudo: command not found
root@beaglebone:~# sudo reboot
-sh: sudo: command not found
root@beaglebone:~#


Many thanks! I had a GUI with cursor the very first time I powered my BBB 
on, failed to shut it down improperly after, and have not seen it since. 
I've even successfully re-flashed mine with a SD card twice.  I can provide 
any logs and feed back to whomever needs it to help solve this particular 
speed bump in my development learning process.  Again, Thanks!

I'm still looking for contributions and issue reports to 
http://github.com/beagleboard/bone101 to get appropriate documentation 
in-the-box.  A live-running copy is at http://beagleboard.github.io if 
people want to review it there. Many broken links from there to be fixed 
due to a change in the root path that needs to be handled.


Also, I'm getting asked a lot about eth0. Is it supposed to be commented 
out of /etc/network/interfaces and configured with wicd? Will it come up 
automatically?

Thanks, Robert.

The MT7601 driver is now working out-of-box.

Great work!
