  • [00:29:27] <GeniusGeeko> Heh, Nice. Nobody really even talks on here according to the history.
  • [00:29:59] <mru> that's not fair
  • [00:30:23] <mru> sure, there's a good deal of guessing (if professional)
  • [00:30:36] <mru> but I still think that qualifies as talking
  • [00:31:04] <GeniusGeeko> eh, there are just a bunch of long hours of silence.
  • [00:31:27] <mru> and you can tell that after being here for all of 10 minutes?
  • [00:31:29] <GeniusGeeko> Can anybody help me with my problem with the problem I have with the BeagleBoard.
  • [00:31:44] <mru> nope, our crystal balls are all fogged up
  • [00:31:50] <GeniusGeeko> Oh no, you can search through the history. http://www.beagleboard.org/irclogs
  • [00:32:39] <GeniusGeeko> Well, I probably just happened to click on the not so busy days.
  • [00:33:15] <mru> anyway, the problem with your problem is that you're not telling us what it is
  • [00:33:27] * cpg is now known as cpgbrb
  • [00:34:49] <GeniusGeeko> Alright, I have my beagleboard all hooked up to my computers serial port. I go into HyperTerminal/Tera Term and all I get is a whole bunch of random junk.
  • [00:35:06] <mru> wrong settings
  • [00:35:16] <GeniusGeeko> I have checked all the setting in both Terminal Emulators but both come up with the same thing-

  • [00:36:41] <mru> looks good
  • [00:36:54] <mru> so what's the junk you're getting?
  • [00:37:13] <mru> and which beagle?

  • [00:38:54] <GeniusGeeko> I do not have a SD Card plugged in because I want to access U-boot before I create the linux partitions.
  • [00:39:06] <djlewis> yea! there is life here after alll :)
  • [00:39:20] <GeniusGeeko> I had the same feeling djlewis
  • [00:39:31] <mru> djlewis: you may be old, but you're not dead (yet)
  • [00:40:19] <djlewis> hehee
  • [00:40:26] <aholler> revision c4 looks really like a whole bunch of random junk ;)
  • [00:40:46] <mru> aholler: what's that supposed to mean?

  • [00:41:29] <ds2> check your cable
  • [00:41:46] <mru> aholler: oh, you're making professional guesses
  • [00:42:20] <GeniusGeeko> I have the rx/tx/gnd going to a rs232->ttl converter
  • [00:42:21] <aholler> I would guess windows is the problem. serial without flow control isn't the kind of thing windows really likes
  • [00:42:23] <mru> yeah, that looks a lot like bad cable
  • [00:42:35] <mru> ttl converter?
  • [00:42:37] <mru> wtf for?
  • [00:42:51] <mru> aholler: I've never had problems with that
  • [00:42:56] <mru> (in windows)
  • [00:43:11] <mru> I've had every other conceivable serial problem though
  • [00:43:37] <GeniusGeeko> I just use them
  • [00:43:43] <mru> use how?
  • [00:43:45] <mru> GeniusGeeko: connect the beagle directly to the PC
  • [00:43:48] <mru> no converters
  • [00:44:03] <GeniusGeeko> I tried that after the converter failed
  • [00:44:05] <GeniusGeeko> I got nothing
  • [00:44:11] <GeniusGeeko> Zip
  • [00:44:25] <mru> I'd say that's a step in the right direction
  • [00:44:29] <ds2> verify the pinout of your cable.
  • [00:44:46] <GeniusGeeko> I made the cable
  • [00:44:54] <ds2> refer to the appropriate section of the SRM and run the requested diagnostic procedure.
  • [00:44:55] <mru> then verify it twice
  • [00:44:58] <aholler> exchange 2 and 3 ;)
  • [00:45:08] <GeniusGeeko> I have more around 100 times
  • [00:45:16] <ds2> failing that, pop it on a scope or LA
  • [00:45:18] <GeniusGeeko> I spent pretty much all last night working with it
  • [00:45:28] <mru> obviously you did something wrong
  • [00:46:34] <ds2> try a prebuilt cable that is known to work
  • [00:47:01] <GeniusGeeko> I don't have time to wait for a prebuilt cable
  • [00:47:18] <mru> then build one properly
  • [00:47:26] <ds2> you have time to sit around here talking so...
  • [00:47:30] <mru> it's 3 wires, how hard can it be?
  • [00:47:32] <GeniusGeeko> pins: 1>1, 2>3, 3>2, 4>4, so forth
  • [00:47:41] <aholler> yo only need 3 wires. and the only problem could be to exchange 2 and 3
  • [00:47:50] <GeniusGeeko> I hooked all pins after I was just annoyed as hell
  • [00:47:56] <aholler> the third one is gnd
  • [00:48:01] <ds2> well, that's 6 possible cables using just 3 wires ;)
  • [00:48:14] <mru> ds2: much more actually
  • [00:48:18] <ds2> most of us only have 5 fingers so it will indeed be a challenge
  • [00:48:32] <aholler> hmm, I have 10 ;)
  • [00:48:32] <mru> 3 wires, 9 pins one end, 10 on the other
  • [00:48:47] <ds2> fair enough
  • [00:49:12] <ds2> too tired to do math
  • [00:49:45] <GeniusGeeko> ok, but its 2>3 3>2 and 5>5 I have hooked it up
  • [00:51:27] <mru> probably counting pins in the wrong order then
  • [00:51:57] <ds2> use clip leads, check it then make the cable
  • [00:51:58] <GeniusGeeko> 1 2
  • [00:52:00] <GeniusGeeko> 3 4
  • [00:52:02] <GeniusGeeko> 5 6

  • [01:07:24] <ac_> Do you have the same problem?
  • [01:09:23] <djlewis> what screen (connection), what cabletype?
  • [01:10:08] <ac_> I used HDMI cable. The HDMI cable connected to TV's HDMI port.
  • [01:10:36] <djlewis> oh, tv
  • [01:11:00] <aholler> the driver is unable to detect the capabilities of your tv, you have to set the resolution by yourself
  • [01:11:07] <djlewis> so you may be getting a signal to the tv which it does not understand.
  • [01:12:18] <ac_> If I used the MicroSD card shipped with board, I can see the boot up message shown on the TV screen. So the cable and HDMI port of the board are good.
  • [01:12:51] <djlewis> i dont think the shipped sd has a gui
  • [01:13:20] <ac_> Yes, you are right. But I can see the boot up message shown on TV.
  • [01:13:56] <djlewis> so you see during boot but not when fully booted?

  • [01:34:27] <mru> try a 5V PSU
  • [01:35:00] <ds2> power via barrel or power via mini AB?
  • [01:35:18] <GeniusGeeko> Dang, I probably don't got a 5v Wall Wart
  • [01:35:30] <mru> use one from a usb hub
  • [01:35:33] <mru> they usually fit
  • [01:36:13] <GeniusGeeko> The hub I got doesn't got a barrel

  • [01:36:56] <mru> try connecting the beagle to that

  • [01:37:07] <GeniusGeeko> 2 usb to 1
  • [01:37:12] <mru> nasty things
  • [01:37:36] <mru> at what point does it reset?
  • [01:37:52] <ds2> are you feeding it into the barrel connector or the mini AB?
  • [01:38:18] <GeniusGeeko> After "Board Revision: C4"
  • [01:38:26] <GeniusGeeko> Mini AB
  • [01:38:27] <mru> ds2: ab obviously, since he said he doesn't have a matching barrel plug psu
  • [01:38:46] <ds2> mru: well, some folks sell a USB to barrel cable
  • [01:39:01] <mru> ds2: such people should be shot on sight
  • [01:39:06] <ds2> GeniusGeeko: do you have anything connected on the expansion bus, HDMI connector or the other USB connector?
  • [01:39:25] <mru> GeniusGeeko: do you get the u-boot banner?
  • [01:39:29] <GeniusGeeko> I have a S-video
  • [01:39:40] <GeniusGeeko> mru: yes
  • [01:39:44] <ds2> disconnect the S-Video too
  • [01:39:55] <ds2> it should let you boot into u-boot
  • [01:40:14] <mru> almost certainly inadequate power
  • [01:40:25] <mru> I don't know any other reason for it to reset there
  • [01:40:40] <GeniusGeeko> I'll try unhooking it
  • [01:40:47] <mru> if u-boot goes wrong somehow, it usually hangs rather than resetting

  • [01:43:11] <GeniusGeeko> ok, now i'm not getting anything at all
  • [01:46:09] <djlewis> he was trying to get you to unhook all non essential items from the board to reduce power draw.
  • [01:46:30] <djlewis> essential would be power and serial console
  • [01:46:53] <GeniusGeeko> Which I got, but now I"m not getting anything in a serial console
  • [01:47:09] <djlewis> you changed your power?
  • [01:47:27] <GeniusGeeko> its still usb

  • [01:51:19] <GeniusGeeko> I know, I'll spend a little more time troubleshooting it
  • [01:53:20] <GeniusGeeko> Ok, nothing is hooked up to it. The 2 LED's won't light up anymore
  • [01:54:54] <djlewis> so your usb power is missing
  • [01:56:16] <GeniusGeeko> I do not have a 5v barrel plug or anything similar either
  • [01:57:35] <djlewis> some cell phones and like mru mentioned usb hubs are similar.
  • [01:57:53] <djlewis> but it cant be more than 5vdc OR BEAGLEBOARD WILL FRY.
  • [01:58:10] <ds2> maybe your USB port died (or shut off)?

  • [01:59:35] <GeniusGeeko> The power LED is still up
  • [02:01:27] <djlewis> the other led's may not do anything without a program to turn them on
  • [02:01:39] <djlewis> they are user led's
  • [02:02:07] <djlewis> often one is set to blink a variable heartbeat rate when booting the kernel
  • [02:02:11] <djlewis> then after,.
  • [02:02:36] <djlewis> the busier the cpu the faster the beat, the way I read it.
  • [02:03:22] <djlewis> and how did someone over tighten this mirror adjuster by hand and squash a acorn nut?
  • [02:07:14] <GeniusGeeko> They have came up before

  • [03:49:34] <GeniusGeeko> i'm not seeeing that
  • [03:49:38] <cwillu> no, not no matter what
  • [03:50:16] <GeniusGeeko> well, it resets directly after "Err: serial"
  • [03:50:21] <GeniusGeeko> there isn't even time for it to read
  • [03:50:36] <cwillu> you've got a serial connection to it?
  • [03:50:57] <GeniusGeeko> Yea.
  • [03:51:14] <GeniusGeeko> Oh and now in the serial i'm getting diamonds and encryptions for no reason
  • [03:51:43] <cwillu> probably just on the wrong serial settings then; 115200 baud, 8bits, no parity
  • [03:52:13] <GeniusGeeko> Got it
  • [03:52:31] <cwillu> can you copy what you're seeing to a pastebin and post the link here?
  • [03:52:37] <GeniusGeeko> It was working just a min ago. Nephew pressed the reset button now its getting that
  • [03:53:30] <cwillu> what was it doing when it was reset?
  • [03:53:48] <cwillu> some (most?) sd cards take sudden power loss very badly
  • [03:53:56] <cwillu> (i.e., if they were busy writing at the time)
  • [03:54:22] <cwillu> also, without any sd card in the device at all, you don't get a uboot prompt?
  • [03:56:05] <GeniusGeeko> ok no sd card it resets and yes it resets without uboot prompt without an sdcard
  • [03:56:26] <cwillu> you're using a serial onto the 10-pin header on the top of the board?

  • [03:57:33] <cwillu> and you don't get any... encryption?
  • [03:57:40] <GeniusGeeko> the serial console needed to be reset
  • [03:58:01] <GeniusGeeko> Fixed the encryption but I'll upload what I get in the console now
  • [03:58:05] <cwillu> "encryption"?
  • [03:58:19] <cwillu> by which you mean "bad serial setting"? :p
  • [03:58:27] <cwillu> yes, please
  • [03:59:28] <GeniusGeeko> no, it was the console got overloaded. I used the same profile settings
  • [03:59:40] <cwillu> what are you using for a serial terminal?

  • [03:59:59] <GeniusGeeko> HyperTerminal ran out of trial days

  • [04:01:36] <GeniusGeeko> Oh, its not on my computer
  • [04:01:45] <GeniusGeeko> my computer doesn't have a serial connection
  • [04:01:48] <cwillu> yeah, uboot is loading fine
  • [04:02:04] <cwillu> I know that because it says "U-Boot 2009.11-rc1-00601-g3aa4b51 (Jan 05 2010 - 20:56:38)" :)
  • [04:02:22] <GeniusGeeko> why isn't it giving me the countdown?
  • [04:02:47] <GeniusGeeko> without it I can't change the environment settings
  • [04:03:17] <cwillu> well, because it's not configured to, presumably because of a setting change you made, or because the uboot version on there has it disabled, or possibly because it's getting noise on the serial line and interpreting that as an immediate keystroke (although I'd expect the uboot prompt then)
  • [04:04:01] <GeniusGeeko> well I'm remaking the SD card to double check
  • [04:04:22] <cwillu> given an appropriate u-boot on the sd card, it'll read from a script that you can make on the sd card, which should allow you to override the environment
  • [04:04:42] <cwillu> (you're aware of the "user" button right?)
  • [04:04:48] <cwillu> (what it does, etc?)
  • [04:04:48] <GeniusGeeko> yea I am
  • [04:04:53] <GeniusGeeko> I read on it
  • [04:06:08] <GeniusGeeko> What do I need to do to get the new U-boot on it?
  • [04:06:10] <cwillu> in the worst case, you can compile a version of u-boot that will simply ignore what's in nand; I had to do this once because of some silly things I stuck in the environment (which you probably didn't do by accident)
  • [04:06:26] <cwillu> copy an appropriate u-boot.bin to the drive

  • [04:07:30] <cwillu> GeniusGeeko, pretty much
  • [04:07:37] <hgs> how do i get to know the latest Angstrom stable DISTRO release?
  • [04:07:49] <GeniusGeeko> what formatting do I need the sdcard?
  • [04:07:53] <cwillu> GeniusGeeko, I'm assuming then that you _haven't_ actually made a properly formatted sd card before then :p

  • [04:08:42] <GeniusGeeko> I have but the GadgetPC might need a different formatting than the BB
  • [04:08:57] <cwillu> that would be a good default assumption
  • [04:09:28] <cwillu> you can't apply instructions from one dev-board to another and have any guarantee that it'll all work
  • [04:09:32] <cwillu> they simply vary too much
  • [04:09:44] <GeniusGeeko> I was thinking it was the same because of the U-boot was the same
  • [04:10:05] <cwillu> what loads u-boot is different though
  • [04:10:47] <GeniusGeeko> would this tutorial work for the uboot? http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardNAND
  • [04:12:11] <cwillu> that's not directly related; it has some relevant material, but that page is really about getting the whole system running without any sd card at all
  • [04:12:52] <GeniusGeeko> Well, could I just ignore the u-boot countdown?
  • [04:13:01] <cwillu> GeniusGeeko, I believe the "Beagle Board Setup for MMC booting" section of http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/wiki/BeagleBootHwSetup is what you need
  • [04:13:03] <GeniusGeeko> and get to booting of linux right away
  • [04:14:07] <cwillu> GeniusGeeko, I think a couple distros now have ready-made images that you just write to an sd card, which should boot a beagle
  • [04:14:33] <hgs> or how do i find the latest stable angstrom DISTRO release "version number" ie for example DISTRO = "Angstrom-2010.1" ??
  • [04:14:37] <cwillu> it doesn't sound like you're terribly interested in how all of this actually works (i.e., to do your own stuff)
  • [04:15:02] <GeniusGeeko> I'm actually in the inpatient stage of my project
  • [04:15:51] <cwillu> hmm
  • [04:15:54] <cwillu> that's a tricky phase to get out of
  • [04:16:02] <GeniusGeeko> I'm sure you have been there many times
  • [04:16:48] <cwillu> it's tricky to get out of because the only way to get out of it is to slow down and re-read the relevant documentation :p
  • [04:16:56] <cwillu> which you're not prone to do when you're impatient
  • [04:17:47] <GeniusGeeko> I'll probably get to it when I actually get it running.
  • [04:17:56] <GeniusGeeko> Thats what usually happens
  • [04:36:06] <djlewis> excellent :P two programs written by ti for the launchpad dont work.

  • [16:28:34] <aholler> I've just seen that DM which has CAN therefor I've got the clue that DM might be for the automobile-industr
  • [16:28:46] <xxiao> that makes sense

  • [16:29:03] <av500> aholler: sure its not AM?
  • [16:29:04] <Nico_> It doesn't work with Android ?
  • [16:29:12] <aholler> av500: could be ;)

  • [16:39:30] <woglinde> nvidia sells a kit in us

  • [16:39:50] <mariopa> i have a bricked c2 beagleboard that only have power led on and only show me 40V after press user and boot from a external 5v power supply
  • [16:39:54] <av500> xxiao: mine came after $250 and a week
  • [16:40:03] <woglinde> you can buy ac100 and folio
  • [16:40:06] <xxiao> av500: really, where did you get it?
  • [16:40:10] <woglinde> from thosbia
  • [16:40:22] <woglinde> got to amazon

  • [16:40:52] <mariopa> nop
  • [16:41:31] <mariopa> I have test all recovery procedures and format in ubuntu, windows, hp format tool
  • [16:41:45] <av500> mariopa: use one of the 2GB images

  • [16:42:09] <xxiao> woglinde: ac100/folio when you buy it can you use it as a devkit? can i somehow get uart and such out?
  • [16:42:15] <mariopa> it only show 40V from serial when i boot it with a external 5v
  • [16:42:29] <av500> mariopa: then your sdcard is bad
  • [16:42:33] <woglinde> xxiao no they have no serial console
  • [16:42:37] <av500> or you are not holding the user button
  • [16:42:44] <av500> or you did not use google enough
  • [16:42:44] <xxiao> woglinde: so that's just a final product

  • [16:43:56] <av500> xxiao: in fact i remember now, I got it from nvidia without ordering :)
  • [16:44:06] <mariopa> i have to get a 2GB to test the demo image?
  • [16:44:11] <av500> no
  • [16:44:17] <av500> it will only use 2gb

  • [16:49:58] <xxiao> s/some/so
  • [16:50:14] <jkridner|work> DM3730 includes hardware acceleration for codecs, as does OMAP3530, not just pure general purpose DSP.

  • [16:51:01] <jkridner|work> indeed. :-/

  • [20:01:15] <rcn-ee> sakoman_, not really, it wasn't really any better then 2.6.35, (in some cases buggier) so i'm just going to push 2.6.37 when it gets released..
  • [20:01:15] <sakoman_> rcn-ee: I just got a replacement xM (my previous one self destructed) and I'm having mmc issues
  • [20:01:51] <rcn-ee> (on my collection of boards, dss2 sometimes worked between boards..)
  • [20:01:53] <emeb> ds2: yep - reports are that auto accidents in LA up 100% over last week due to moisture...
  • [20:02:06] <emeb> err - 1000%
  • [20:02:11] <sakoman_> rcn-ee: my new xM can't mount the sd card with 2.6.36 or 2.6.36
  • [20:02:29] <ds2> emeb: the embankments around here get decorated with cars strewn in all sorts of orientations during the first big storm
  • [20:02:37] <sakoman_> and the validation sd card that it ships with generates hundreds of -110 errors at boot
  • [20:02:39] <rcn-ee> Which of the xM's did you get? A? B? or C?
  • [20:03:02] <emeb> ds2: even worse in AZ - no one here understands rain + roads
  • [20:03:25] * arun (~arun@unaffiliated/sindian) Quit (Read error: Operation timed out)
  • [20:03:26] <sakoman_> rcn-ee: it is marked B but u-boot reports it as rev A
  • [20:03:40] <ds2> emeb: to be fair, during the AZ storms, visibility goes to zero =)
  • [20:03:49] * arun (~arun@unaffiliated/sindian) has joined #beagle
  • [20:04:15] <rcn-ee> yeap, i have one of those too... do you have another sd card to quickly test? i've seen the -110 happen on really cheap cards..
  • [20:04:26] <ds2> emeb: the whole out doors here looks like it is around Sep/Oct... just don't feel christmas-y
  • [20:04:31] <sakoman_> rcn-ee: I've used 3 or 4 different cards
  • [20:04:33] <emeb> ds2: there's that
  • [20:04:56] <ds2> need 3-4 ft of white stuff with real snowman
  • [20:05:01] <sakoman_> rcn-ee: the validation one that ships is the only one that sort of works, but still reports lots of -110 errors

  • [20:05:29] <ben_kludged> rcn-ee, me thinks the c4 is ok, but mayhaps me needs to get xM, but me haint interested in video connections, usb keyboards/ mouses,, me wants to it all thru apache and vnc,,,
  • [20:05:32] <ds2> emeb: frosty the snowman, shaggy horses pulling a sleigh around, etc...
  • [20:05:44] <ds2> sakoman_: sounds like a good time to get TFTP boot working on the xM in U-boot ;)
  • [20:05:59] <rcn-ee> sakoman_, i sure can... send me an email (gmail) i'm heading back to work, but i'll grab my xm..
  • [20:06:02] <sakoman_> ds2: good, go for it!
  • [20:06:03] <emeb> ds2: that suggests a strong northern-hemisphere bias
  • [20:06:15] <sakoman_> rcn-ee: great, thanks!
  • [20:06:31] <rcn-ee> not a problem.. ;)

  • [20:19:38] <GatorBoz> Ceriand|work: correct
  • [20:19:54] <Ceriand|work> do you have a JTAG emulator?
  • [20:20:21] <GatorBoz> Ceriand|work: X-loader boots up, doesn't see u-boot.bin on the MMC card, then waits for a kermit transfer...I transfer in u-boot.bin, and it tries to execute at 0x8000 8000 (or so it says as the Start Addr:) and then nothing
  • [20:20:27] <GatorBoz> Ceriand|work: yes
  • [20:20:48] <Ceriand|work> are you able to verify that you setup the SDRAM correctly?

  • [20:27:42] <Ceriand|work> GatorBoz: you'll want to check your DDR init to make sure it's compatible with the chip you're using

  • [20:28:37] <GatorBoz> Ceriand|work: Where is that located in Xloader? I am using the same PoP as Beagle C4, and using a very slightly modded X-loader by myself
  • [20:28:54] <Ceriand|work> it's usually in the board file
  • [20:29:36] <GatorBoz> Ceriand|work: as in the JTAG BCD board file or xloader board file?
  • [20:29:44] <Ceriand|work> x-loader
  • [20:30:09] <GatorBoz> Ceriand|work: ok...
  • [20:31:43] <GatorBoz> Ceriand|work: I'll check that....but why would Xloader report that u-boot.bin wasn't found, if it is just reading the SD card?
  • [20:32:41] <Ceriand|work> the fat driver in x-load is a little buggy. sometimes if the sd card hasn't been formatted in awhile, it'll fail to read files
  • [20:33:57] <Ceriand|work> you might want to try reformatting the sd card, and re-copying the files
  • [20:34:28] <Ceriand|work> and always make sure you safely unmount the SD card when you're done writing to it
