BBB and BB-View howto?

Former Member
Former Member over 11 years ago

Hi there,

 

I was using BeagleBone White and BB-View 7'' for a while now (Thanks to compeoree for the excellent howto).

 

Now I swtiched to BBB since BeagleBone is out of stock most places (and due to performance :-))

 

Ok, here my issue:

I followed the manual to install the patch to make BB-View work:

cp -f /media/udisk/zImage /boot/uboot

$ cp -f /media/udisk/*.dtb /boot/uboot/dtbs

$ tar -xvf /media/udisk/kernel_modules.tar.gzvcd -C /

$ cp -f /media/udisk/xorg.conf /etc/X11/

$ sync

 

Before I untar I check /lib/modules and see this directory:

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 15 02:53 3.8.13-bone50

 

After untar there is a second directory 3.8.13. I tried to move the contents of one directory to the other. Also symbolic link did not work.

 

After reboot the LCD is still blank and the two LEDs are off.

 

Must be something simple, right?

root@beaglebone:/lib/modules# uname -a

Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-bone50 #1 SMP Tue May 13 13:24:52 UTC 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux

BeagleBoard.org BeagleBone Debian Image 2014-05-14

 

Thanks

Regards

Thomas

    I checked the cables and use a power supply which is strong enough. The current readingis 220mA with or without the LCD connected to the BBB
