00:00 <zmatt> part of the problem is libraries like SDL using GBM as a generic buffer allocation library while in reality GBM is deeply tied to Mesa

00:07 <TheConceptBoy> I see

00:09 <zmatt> though this doesn't explain why it's not working.... like, even opengl via mesa should still work using software rasterization

00:09 <zmatt> so this _feels_ like a mesa/gbm bug

00:10 <zmatt> not something I can really dig into right now

00:12 <TheConceptBoy> That's alright. I think I'm going to experiment with using an spi display and custom gui library via python

00:13 <TheConceptBoy> is there an hdmi-less beaglebone version?

00:13 <zmatt> everything in me is screaming "this is dumb, such a hacky workaround shouldn't be needed" but I understand why you're discouraged by these library issues

00:14 <zmatt> you can just disable hdmi if you want to (uncomment the "disable_uboot_overlay_video=1" line in /boot/uEnv.txt)

00:14 <TheConceptBoy> Oh yeah, for sure I can do that as well

00:15 <zmatt> there are also beaglebone derivatives without hdmi like the beaglebone green but they have other changes as well

00:16 <zmatt> btw have you tried the "directfb" sdl backend as alternative to "kmsdrm" ?

00:16 <zmatt> it might work (albeit presumably using the legacy fbdev rather than the new kmsdrm api)

01:27 <set_> Hello.

01:29 <set_> Is it libgpiod in .c files that creates the gpiod_line_release(line); and gpiod_chip_close(chip); not being able to close the file, in this effort it is a LED or Relay opened from a fd, or is it the BBB that is situated in a specific way that creates this issue?

02:30 <TheConceptBoy> Welp I think I just killed my beaglebone...

02:31 <TheConceptBoy> short somewhere along spi pins or something else

02:31 <TheConceptBoy> maybe the 5b got sunk to ground directly

02:31 <TheConceptBoy> 5v

02:31 <TheConceptBoy> rip

02:36 <zmatt> yeah the tiny tiny transistors of the AM335x don't tolerate too much abuse, it ain't an arduino :P

02:37 <zmatt> although probably the most common way to murder a beaglebone is through overvoltage, e.g. putting 5V on any digital I/O

02:37 <TheConceptBoy> I lost 2x Cm4 compute modules this way

02:38 <zmatt> I don't even know how many beaglebones we lost here at work over the years, but it's quite a few

02:41 <zmatt> today I actually found a box on my desk with three beaglebones in it and a post-it asking "All dead?" ... dunno their story but presumably they want me to verify whether these bbbs are in fact deceased

02:49 <zmatt> yep, they're super dead... power led blip of doom, all three... I wonder what they did to them

10:16 <keesj> Hi, is there a tool similar to code sourcery to do bare bones development on the ai-64 ?

10:29 <keesj> https://github.com/beagleboard/beaglebone-ai/issues/21 still relevant?

10:46 <keesj2> and can the bootloader be build using buildroot e.g. https://github.com/beagleboard/beaglebone-ai/tree/master/SW/buildroot ?

11:22 <Parduz> Hello, I have a problem on a BBB located in Korea (i'm Italian).

11:22 <Parduz> There's a "Kiosk" app running on it that shows the content of a Fat32 USB drive when inserted.

11:22 <Parduz> This works fine with a USB drive i've sent there, with all the drives i tested here, but the Korean user cannot make his one working, as if the OS did'nt detect it.

11:22 <Parduz> The BBB is running debian 10.

11:22 <Parduz> My question is: there's known issues, or incopatibilities, between the BBB, or Debian, and some USB drives?

13:16 <keesj> Hi

15:47 <Parduz> Could it be possible that the BBB, once an usb drive is inserted, creates a file different than /dev/sd* ?

16:23 <Guest9074> Hi,

16:24 <Guest9074> Display resolution Begelbone AI-64?

19:09 <Guest9154> hi

19:10 <Guest9154> i want to start internet on BBB  connected to ubuntu 18.04

19:10 <Guest9154> what steps i have to perfrom ?

19:10 <Guest9154> if i connect ethernet port to rj45 connector , it is letting me to ssh

19:10 <Guest9154> but if i type ping www.google.com

19:11 <Guest9154> it is not working

19:11 <Guest9154> what the things i have to do ?
