Hello,
I tried config-pin example from Exploring BeagleBone, 2nd Ed.:
debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -l p2.08
ERROR: open() for /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ocp/P2_08_pinmux/pinctrl-names failed, No such file or directory
debian@beaglebone:~$
Any comments ?
Thanks.
P2_08 is a PocketBeagle reference, I thought you had a normal BBB?
Regards,
Oh yes, I didn’t notice that example is for PocketBeagle.
So, for BBB it should be something like this: config-pin -l p9.08 or config-pin -l p8.08?
Regards.
Just tried p8 and p9:
debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -l p9.08
ERROR: open() for /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ocp/P9_08_pinmux/pinctrl-names failed, No such file or directory
debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -l p8.08
ERROR: open() for /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ocp/P8_08_pinmux/pinctrl-names failed, No such file or directory
debian@beaglebone:~$
Just tried p8 and p9:
debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -l p9.08
ERROR: open() for /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ocp/P9_08_pinmux/pinctrl-names failed, No such file or directory
P9.08 is a SYS_5V, definitely not user touchable...
debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -l p8.08
ERROR: open() for /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ocp/P8_08_pinmux/pinctrl-names failed, No such file or directory
debian@beaglebone:~$
debian@bbb-pwr02-ser10:~$ config-pin -l P8.08
Available modes for P8_08 are: default gpio gpio_pu gpio_pd gpio_input timer
Please run:
sudo /opt/scripts/tools/version.sh
and we can help point out what's wrong..
Regards,
Thanks. Here it is:

Your booting the mainline kernel default device tree, thus config-pin
will not work.
Either use factory 2020-04-06 image or feel free to grab a newer snapshot:
https://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2020-09-07/
Regards,
On the link there are more than 10 images.
Is there a document that compares their features?
Either use factory 2020-04-06 image
Does it exist on this page ?
I’ve also tried on the image that I built using create-sdcard.sh script from TI SDK (when booted from SD card**):**
root@am335x-evm:~# config-pin -l P8.08
-sh: config-pin: command not found
root@am335x-evm:~#
Here is link where the procedure is described: Linux SD Card Creation Guide
By the way this Linux image is quite strange as some standard Linux commands aren’t recognized, e.g. apt package manager.
Concerning this link
https://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2020-09-07/
I’ve found only one image that matches closely BBB … at least it follows from its name:
BBB-blank-debian-10.5-console-armhf-2020-09-07-1gb.img.xz
from:
https://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2020-09-07/buster-console/
In other “stretch” folders from this repository I didn’t find images that start with BBB or am335.
So, the only available image for BBB is BBB-blank-debian-10.5-console-armhf-2020-09-07-1gb.img.xz ?
Sincerely,
Pavel.

config-pin is a beagleboard.org script...

They use yocto, apt isn't installed by default..

any image with bone-* is for am335x.

Frankly speaking I didn’t find any descriptions except name of kernel.
There are 5 images in “stretch” family:
- Console
- IoT
- IoT TIDL
- LXQt
- LXQt TIDL
I suppose that Console stands for image without graphical environment ?
All others are perhaps with graphical environment. Correct ?
Then IoT stands for image with support of some network protocols, e.g MQTT ?
LXQt probably stands for image wit Qt preinstalled ?
But what signifies TIDL ?
Sincerely,
Pavel.
Console = smallest, very little installed
IoT = bigger than console with out of box BeagleBoard.org stuff
(Cloud9, Node-Red, etc..).
LXQt = IoT + LXQt
TIDL = TI https://training.ti.com/texas-instruments-deep-learning-tidl-overview

Console = smallest, very little installed
Ok
IoT = bigger than console with out of box BeagleBoard.org stuff
(Cloud9, Node-Red, etc…).
Does exist somewhere the whole list of features ?
LXQt = IoT + LXQt
Frankly speaking, didn’t understand.
TIDL = TI https://training.ti.com/texas-instruments-deep-learning-tidl-overview
In the preview they are talking on AM57x. So, does not work for BBB?
Sincerely,
Pavel
P.S. Is my supposition correct that all images except console feature graphical environment ?

It's just the default out of box experience, so things really get
added all the time, whether from GSOC or any other code events.
LXQt = IoT + LXQt
Frankly speaking, didn't understand.
LXQt is a lightweight desktop based on Qt
TIDL = TI Videos | TI.com
In the preview they are talking on AM57x. So, does not work for BBB?
TIDL is AM57xx only, it takes a ton of room, so those libraries are
not installed on a base image.
Sincerely,
Pavel
P.S. Is my supposition correct that all images except console feature graphical environment ?
Only the LXQt images have xorg installed.

After flashing bone-eMMC-flasher-debian-10.5-iot-armhf-2020-08-25-4gb.img the tool config-pin works.
Thanks !
Before I had this image in eMMC:
bone-debian-10.3-iot-armhf-2020-04-06-4gb.img
that I’ve got from: BeagleBoard.org Latest Firmware Images
Why on BBB-dedicated page they put “mainline kernel default device tree” image ?
Sincerely.
Pavel.
I was a little hasty to say what works.
The version of config-pin, installed on my system, is quite shrinked.
debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -h
GPIO Pin Configurator
Usage: config-pin -c
config-pin -l
config-pin -q
config-pin
debian@beaglebone:~$
Contrary to the version, described in the book of Derek Molloy, there is no such options as -a, -i, -f,
Moreover, the -q option (pin querry) doesn’t provide information of the pin mode (direction) and its value:
debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -q P9.12
Current mode for P9_12 is: gpio
debian@beaglebone:~$
In fact, there is no information at all!
it got rewritten and replaced by something that's maintainable.
Patches welcome..
