Pandaboard and Ubuntu 11.04

最近因為工作的關係, 開始碰 TI OMAP的板子...Pandaboard 其實我一點都不會....


這幾塊ARM+DSP都是號稱mobile computing....很多人是為了android來弄這塊的....
panda跟beagle都有強大的社群資源, 不論你是android或是linux, 都可以有很多的網路資訊....


我對linux完全不算熟悉, 但是從以前就有試著裝過, 不過都覺得不好用, 生硬的介面也讓我一路退回windows...
直到日前為了弄omap, 在PC上架了Ubuntu, 發現現在的linux已經完全不一樣了....
一台PC上先裝了windows, 在裝上ubuntu也是可以直接在ubuntu的CD裏做, 雖然硬碟規畫的效能差一些, 不過還是蠻適合我這種人...
加上新的內建office已經可以完全正確的開啟windows office file, 不像以前的open office,開起來總是怪怪的...

要把Ubuntu 架上 pandaboard也不是太困難的事, 很多都有pre build的image, 現在是如何把image放到SD card(聽說一定要用sandisk的SD), 然後放進pandaboard 開機...
說來很簡單, 不過對於我這linux白癡, 可是大事一件....

有人是在windows 下用 win32 ImageWriter去把down load下來的file寫進去SD...
我一直出現問題, 在於 down load 下來的image, 解壓縮後是.raw的file,就算改附檔名為 .img image writer也是一回個error 123給我....

最後是回到ubuntu下, 照著command打, 才搞定....
這個texas大學的教學, 是我覺得最好上手的....
How to Install Ubuntu on the Panda Board

寫SD card需要一些時間....

放上pandaboard, 接螢幕, mouse/keyboard就可以開了...

Heltec ESP32+OLED+Lora, hardware testing

you can easily find some good boards from china, but most of them lack of accurate document... Hrere is an example; https://hackaday.io/project/26991-esp32-board-wifi-lora-32 the board looks good with lora and a 128x64 OLED, but the IIC and reset connection is important, since pin can be muxing easily, so every board could be different. pinMode(16,OUTPUT);  digitalWrite(16, LOW); // set GPIO16 low to reset OLED  delay(50);  digitalWrite(16, HIGH); // while OLED is running, must set GPIO16 to high  and, if needed, edit your Wire.begin() to Wire.begin(4,15); (4 = SDA 15 SCL)  i tested it with the Adafruit SSD1306 and the Acrobotics SSD1306 Librarys  both work.  Display size is 128x64 There are discussions on these boards on TＴＮ as a LORA node..or maybee single ch gateway? Heltec has a git :  https://github.com/Heltec-Aaron-Lee And there is another copy call TTGO https://de.aliexpress.com/item/TTGO-LORA32-868-915-Mhz-SX1276-ESP32-Oled-display-Bluetooth-WIFI

micro SD card for ESP32, on lolin32 with OLED and heltec 32 lora oled

圖片
I have purchased 2 micro SD card holder for my esp project. First I would like to test with heltec esp32 lora oled module. this module uses: sck=05 MISO=19 MOSI=27 SS(lora)=18, then I assigned 21 for sd SS and there is a lib in esp32-arduino, which use SS default at 5 I took the example and use SD.begin(21), but I alway get the error: entry 0x40078a9c Card Mount Failed But I do saw once that it read out the sd card type and volume. Not sure it's the issue of lora sd card swithing, or it just can't work. The other esp32 card I have is an wemos esp32 oled, it did not leave me too much pins, I need to find out how to connect sd to it. But I have wemos D1 mini esp8266 on hand, and connect it as:  * The WeMos Micro SD Shield uses:  * D5, D6, D7, D8, 3V3 and G  *  * The shield uses SPI bus pins:  * D5 = CLK  * D6 = MISO  * D7 = MOSI  * D8 = CS It's not working with the example in the arduino IDE 1.8.5, which marked SD(esp8266), but it w

Install Network Time Protocol(NTP) on BeagleBone with Angstrom linux and set local time zone

Referenced from : http://cwraig.id.au/?p=513 1. Update your Package List opkg update 2. Get the ntp Package opkg install ntp ntpdate Update 2014/07/03 for the latest beaglebone image(2013-06-20) with kernel 3.8.12, after this installation,  system will add to service list, so only need to change time zone 3. Now we need to stop the ntpd service so we can request a manual update /etc/init.d/ntpd stop manual update ntpdate pool.ntp.org type in date, you should see the date is changing to current date and time, but the time zone is not corrected. The time zone info is contained in /etc/localtime , use this to remove it: rm /etc/localtime before link up our time zone, look into /usr/share/zoneinfo folder for your timezone. I did not find taiwan in asia, not plan to use hong_kong, but there is still: /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT-8 now we make the link with ln command ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT-8 /etc/localtime now type date again to check, should ha
