In a lot of cases the difference is only going to be a matter of taste. However, i think you'll find documentation for some distro's far superior to others. As to whether one distro boots faster than another I think that sentiment to be incorrect. If one distro boors faster than another that is be

console=ttyO0,9600n8 The above works for a fact, at least on my own BBB. I have to use this BAUD rate since I use an MSP430 Launchpad as a serial debug interface( and max BAUD rate is 9600 bps ) As for the rest, I couldn't say. On Wed, Nov 27, 2013 at 1:06 PM, Robert Nelson wrote: > On Wed, No

Re: [beagleboard] Can anyone tell me about PWM in Linux 3.12+ Please?

Hi, I've tried to build pwm_test under 3.12 and it works seamless BUT the dts_common file is hesvy changed so I didn't figure how to match the old overlay with the new kernel... after that I gave up and went back to 3.8.13. I'm also interested in other experience Il giorno martedì 19 novembre

Re: [beagleboard] Can someone please calify the differences on OS's for BBB

Funny you should ask. I just finished writing a chapter comparing different OS choices for the Beagles for my upcoming book. It really depends on what you want to do. For me Ubuntu is a clear winner with the repository support for desktop and hacking applications. If you just want to run your o

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Need Help with UART configuration

It's the shell causing your problems, not the UART. First, it should be "echo -n \\x00 > /dev/ttyO4" Two backslashes (my error, sorry). Second, "man echo" and take a look at the syntax, you can't just do "\xN". To repeat, you should really write some software to do this rather than doing
