Connecting to an encrypted network

Find your network from the above scan command.

$ wpa_passphrase <YourAP> <YourPassword> >wpa.conf
$ ps | grep wpa_supplicant
*kill the wpa_supplicant process if exist.
$ wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c./wpa.conf -B
$ udhcpc -iwlan0
$ ifconfig

Gbit Ethernet

HDMI boot arguments

All paramters are u-boot enviroment parameters.

Default:

U-Boot # setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 ubi.mtd=3 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs 

This will set the LCD to work.

HDMI 1080P:

U-Boot # setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 ubi.mtd=3 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1920x1080M@60,if=RGB24'

HDMI 720P:

U-Boot # setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 ubi.mtd=3 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1280x720M@60,if=RGB24

LVDS boot arguments

All paramters are u-boot enviroment parameters.

Default:

U-Boot # setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 ubi.mtd=3 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs 

This will set the LCD to work.

LVDS only display:

U-Boot # setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 ubi.mtd=3 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs ldb=sin1

LVDS only display with screen paramters:

U-Boot # setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 ubi.mtd=3 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs ldb=sin1 video=mxcfb0:dev=ldb,800x600M@60,if=RGB24

LVDS and LCD Dual display:

U-Boot # setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 ubi.mtd=3 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs ldb=dul0'

RTC

To set the RTC first set the date from Linux shell, type:

$ date 2013.08.27-15:43

Then set the real time clock from Linux shell, type:

$ hwclock --systohc

Power down your board wait 5 minutes and power up. Check your system with date and the time should be up to date.

Camera

$ modprobe ov5642_camera
$ modprobe mxc_v4l2_capture
$ /etc/rc5.d/S01xserver-nodm stop
$ gst-launch mfw_v4lsrc ! mfw_v4lsink

External Uart

Use minicom to connect. Set the serial to ttymxc2 You can use a loopback or connect to anther computer

SATA

$ $ fdisk /dev/sda 
When you get prompt "Command (m for help):" hit p

Test output example:

root@varsommx6q:~# cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
  Vendor: ATA      Model: ST9120823AS      Rev: 3.AD
  Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI  SCSI revision: 05
root@varsommx6q:~# fdisk /dev/sda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 14593.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help): p

PCIE

$ lspci 

The output should look like:

USB OTG as host

N/A. See release notes

USB OTG as device

Plug a cable to a A linux host.

Folow www.linux-usb.org/gadget/file_storage.html and build the backing_file.

On the Target:

$ modprobe g_mass_storage file=./backing_file

On the Host:

use dmesg and find out your device for example /dev/sdb
$ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=128k count=1000

3 ports USB Host

Plug a DiskOnKey, Mouse or Keyboard to any of the 3 ports.

Canbus

Starting Release 4 of the Yocto Canbus is integrated into the system. No patch required.

  1. Connect 2 boards. Each board JP26 connect to the other with the right cable.

Set up the 2 boards by running on each of them:

$ ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 125000

On board #1:

$ cansniffer can0

On board #2:

$ cansend can0 500#1E.10.10
