Ds3231 arch linux11/24/2023 So, I plugged it into the only HDMI monitor I have and tried to adjust the ssh.config file. At one point, I had one point, I was trying to get Arch Linux up and I couldn’t get in via SSH. I’m pretty sure this is due to drivers, since I’ve read through the BBB datasheet and the power supply hardware seems sound. Sounds ok, right? Well, don’t forget there is no hot-plugging on the USB, microSD, or HDMI. The designers suggestion? Don’t plug anything in until the board is up. Several distros will shutdown the board during boot-up, as the peak above 500mA. Better power-management on the software side.Therefore, if an embedded device in anyway can utilize cheap peripherals, then let’s focus on making it happen. It allows us to do more with our budgets. Ability to plug in cheap, low-power WiFi dongles and get them going in under an hour.Some things not supported that will need to be for me to get to point C (Fig. So, where’s the Beaglebone Black? Not there. Though, I should state, I’ve realize these three features are no simple feat. To me, if these three features are achieved, then I feel like the device is complete. A few features to allow rapid prototyping while haranessing the power of open software. Ability to utilize higher-level programming languages (Python, C++, etc).Easy access to a graphical interface (note, I’m not stating GUI).I’m pushing to have some basic PC functionality. But if they don’t carry some extrordinary functions then what separates them from really, really fast microcontrollers? No. I’ve read the warnings TinHead gave on treating embedded devices like computers. The current Beaglebone driver technology is a hidden barrier to this productivity point. At first, I thought this was completely due to my ineptitude (which is partially true), but there is another barrier, a seemingly hidden one. The problem is technology limitations are restricting me from getting to point C on the curve. Really, I’d be happy at point C (even though point D is probably better for me and my family). In essence, this graph shows that I cannot reach my desired productive efficiency (getting the B^3 to do the tricks I want it). It’s the where I’ve realized my productive efficiency is being restricted due to the current inabilities of technology. Well, I think I could best describe this point in economic terms. I understand it’s a falsity, but it’s still comforting. I’ve enjoyed this for two reasons: I can keep an eye on how a program is compiling on the Raspberry Pi while watching a movie with the family, and, I like the feeling of running Linux on a closed system. It’ll let you tunnel (SSH) into your Linux devices from either from an iPhone or iPad X. Off topic a bit, I’m not sure if anyone else uses iDevices but I did run into this app that I greatly enjoy. If anyone actually downloads the image, will you confirm it works for you? I haven’t found an Arch Linux image file, so I thought I’d cook one and post it for anyone who needs it. Walkthrough to setup the rtl8192cu drivers.I’ve not had time to attempt their walkthroughs, but it is on the agenda. And router will soon make the switch to OpenWRT.īack to the BBB the Realtek WiFi dongle that drove me mad has been solved by these guys. I grew up Microsoft and over this last month all household computers have switched to dual-booting Ubuntu 12.04 and Microsoft X. I’ve spent the last month reading about Linux and trying to wrap my head around it (that and fixing all of our bust-a-mucated cars). I’ve not given up on the BBB as a robot platform I realized I didn’t know Linux well enough to begin tweaking it on embedded devices (well, devices lacking community support, at least). Sorry all, been more than a month since I updated this post. If there are some Linux wise in the crowd (especially those knowing Arch Linux) would you mind taking a look at my work flow? I’ve got the wifi module working, though, it’s not as stable as I’d like. I thought I might as well share my work log embarrassing as it may be. Not much yet, still working on stable wifi. I’m guessing Zaius is dead on version issues. The reference manual is stating one thing, but other sources are agreeing with me. I’m getting conflicting information on what pins are what in Mode 7. Don’t use the pinout until I research more. Though I’ve not attempted his instructions (been burnt out on this board) I believe his instructions will get a reliable WiFi connection with the rtl8192, using Arch Linux, on the B^3.Īlso, when I get the energy, the pinout at the bottom of this page has a mistake or two. This fellow here has made some pretty nifty walkthroughs on the rtl8192 and the Chronodot (DS3231) RTC on the Arch Linux.
