beagleboard xm, rev b - no ethernet and usb working

GoogleGroups
1

hello,

i got problems with the usb ports on my beagleboard xm, rev b. they
seem to just don't work. i'll try to describe my steps in the order i
did them so you can track:

1. first i take out the delivered sd card, put it in my computer
2. i install ubuntu 10.4.2 exactly like explained here
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Lucid_10.04.2
3. i put the sd card in my beagle and plug in: hdmi to dvi cable to a
screen, 1600mA 5v dc power to beagle, and a keyboard in one of the
four available usb ports
4. i apply power an beagle boots up
5. an install screen is shown to me on my monitor and i try to
continue, but what doesn't work is my keyboard, because it seems none
of the usb ports is powered. the ethernet seems no to be powered
either, because when i plug in the cable no lights on the ports a
flashing

i also tried folling versions for beagle of ubuntu: 10.10, 10.04.2,
10.04.1, 11.04

dmesg isn't altering anything when im plugging in/out usb devices.

what works is accessing the beagle over the serial connection, but i
want to use it as server so i need at least the ethernet port working
(and i'd like to have the usb ports too if possible).

this is what lsusb shows (only these two lines):
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

i also tried with powered usb hub, but nothing works and i don't know
what is wrong.
i'll get a multimeter today, so i could measure voltage or something
to locate the error, but i don't know what to meassure.

i hope these informations help because i would really appreciate if
someone could help me. i just don't know what to do.

thank you

Hello,

Using 10.10 ( http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Maverick_10.10_2 )

Can you log for me the full boot log (from power up) using the serial terminal..

Your lsusb looks pretty weird..

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.

The smsc95xx (lan/usb) doesn't seem to be powered on..

Regards,

with boot log you mean the dmesg output i think?

this it what it says from boot:

with boot log you mean the dmesg output i think?

yeah, that's fine, but please next time use pastebin.com instead of
pasting in email..

This where the smsc95xx driver should load.. I'd expect it to look like:

[ 15.601470] twl_rtc twl_rtc: rtc core: registered twl_rtc as rtc0

So going forward:

First: check if any modules have loaded:

voodoo@beagle-xma-512mb:~$ lsmod
Module Size Used by
rtc_twl 4602 0
rtc_core 16807 1 rtc_twl
smsc95xx 11739 0
gpio_keys 5912 0

Next, is smsc95xx the only missing one?

Next double check the file exists in the rootfs:

voodoo@beagle-xma-512mb:~$ find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ | grep smsc95xx
/lib/modules/2.6.38-rc5-d3/kernel/drivers/net/usb/smsc95xx.ko

(ignore the 2.6.38-rc5-d3 it's just what my xM A's running at the
moment, 2.6.37-x2 is in the same place..)

Double check, does the Angstrom Image work?
http://narcissus.angstrom-distribution.org/

I'd say if the smsc95xx file exists, but it isn't loaded (lsmod) and
even the angstrom demo images doesn't work.. We might be looking at a
failure of the smsc95xx..

It's pretty rare, but maybe Gerald has some insight/debugging tips for
when the smsc95xx doesn't seem to come up...

1. first i take out the delivered sd card, put it in my computer
2. i install ubuntu 10.4.2 exactly like explained here http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Lucid_10.04.2

The active level of the digital bit to enable the USB controller is reversed in the -xm board vs the original Beagleboard. The original kernel in the delivered SD card should work with the -xm board. You have created your problem by replacing the kernel with the one that only works on the original Beagleboard. There is a patch to detect which Beagleboard the kernel runs on and use the proper logic level to enable the USB controller.

6

The kernel he's running has that patch..

Regards,

sorry, i searched for an attach button but found none so i directly
pasted the information; next time i know, thank you :slight_smile:
i ran lsmod, result is exactly how you expected. i have only the
rtc_twl, rtc_core and gpio_keys loaded, smsc95xx is the one missing.
but it is not missing in /lib/modules, find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ |
grep smsc95xx returns the same as in your posting.

i also tried as you said the angstrom distribution, installed it as
explained here http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-beagleboard-xm/
boots up fine, all things work, but surprise: usb doesn't come up
either, no success.

so, what is it to do next, may i have received a broken board?

8

I think you need to determine if your -xm board's USB port is malfunction or not before trying different Linux distributions. So, I suggest you to get the EXACT original content (images) of the delivered micro SD card back and try it again. If the USB still does not work, your board may be faulty.

9

i think that may board fault
cause

i have same beagle board xm rev b and i tested it with SD card that
come with it and SD card installing angstrom
after configuration ports with gtkterm and powered on after
millisecond usb port (that put on it my reader) light on D14 and off
when do poweroff(system halted)

10

Try using a 5V 3A SMPS power supply.

Hope this should solve ur problem because 1600 mA is much less to power the onboard USB hub.
