Re: [Machinekit] Re: Machinekit on PocketBeagle

2019-05-19 Thread markus
Am I correct that the support for the PB is a 'compile time' decision?
So if hal_bb_gpio is compiled for a BBB the driver does not support the
PB headers - right?

The MK image is from April 5 2019 - I made sure I updated to the latest
from deb.machinekit.io - the installed version is 0.1.155255826 which
has the commit sha1 355496b, which indeed seems to be HEAD of master.

If the driver is supposed to work on the PB although it was compiled
for the BBB then I'll file an issue for it.

Thanks,
Markus

I've had this running for a while on PB now.  The pin mapping issues should 
have been fixed for a couple of years now [1].  If the elinux.org image is 
too old to have this change, update Machinekit.  If you confirm that the 
change is in place and you're still seeing this issue, file an issue on the 
tracker, and mention @zultron to ensure I see it (though I would anyway).

[Machinekit] Machinekit on PocketBeagle

2019-05-19 Thread mlampert
I've installed the stretch Machinekit image from elinux.org on a 
PocketBeagle to play around with. As it turns out some of the installed 
drivers are indeed specific to the BBB, hal_bb_gpio being one of them (it 
insists on mapping pin 201 to 901 and then complain that it cannot be 
configured). After looking at the source I understand what's going on and 
why this is happening - however, I don't know what else needs to get 
specifically built for the pocketbeagle.

So the question is: What's the best way to get Machinekit running on a 
PocketBeagle?

Thanks a lot,
Markus
