Howdy!

I just pushed out another round of images for testing.

http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#2014-11-11

Feature wise the Wheezy/Jessie images are now identical*.

U-boot: v2014.10

For Wheezy:
Kernel: 3.8.13-bone67
Just package updates

For Jessie:
Desktop: lxqt 0.8.0 + qt 5.3.2
Kernel: 3.14.23-ti-r33 (with BeagleBoard-x15 support*)
Init: systemd
Network: connman + cmst
cloud9: tmux-1.6 was backported
WebBrowser: http://www.qupzilla.com/ (qt 5.3.2 based)

* For overlay/bonescript users, then Jessie=Wheezy
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.8.13-bone67
sudo reboot

* x15 - Status:

Upon loading
BBB-eMMC-flasher-debian-jessie-lxqt-armhf-2014-11-11-2gb.img

onto two different BeagleBone Blacks, RevC, two different microSD cards,
image is untouched, unmodified,

both present the same failures…
as monitored on TTYO0

Thanks for testing! I'm pretty sure this is because we also have
udchpd on the image, both dhcp damon's are fighting for the socket..

ap-hotspot brings in dnsmasq.. might just have to disable that, as we
need udhcpd for bb.org

The experience of wireless routers that serve up a web login page could be rather helpful. It might also give us a way to get wireless adapters connected.

Maybe we should just switch?

Sure, as long as we can configure dnsmasq to do the work of udhcpd,
i'm all for it.. :wink:

/etc/dnsmasq.conf

dhcp-range=usb0,192.168.7.1,192.168.7.3,12h

look sane?

Hi Robert,
withThis worked for me:

/etc/dnsmasq.conf
#disable DNS by setting port to 0
port=0


interface=usb0
dhcp-range=192.168.7.1,192.168.7.1
#one address range

/etc/network/interfaces

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug usb0
iface usb0 inet static
address 192.168.7.2

```netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.7.0 gateway 192.168.7.1`

I'm using your 2014/11/11 jessie image and after I did an apt-get update/upgrade I lost the ability to connect with ssh. removing udhcpd and adding the above configuration for dnsmasq restored my ability to connect via ssh on both interfaces.

…Here’s another option I needed to add to dnsmasq.conf:

dhcp-option=3

this stops dnsmasq from handing out a default route and screwing up your connection to the internet.

Hi Robert,

just wanted to comment that I had an issue with the ping executable using the 2014/11/11 jessie image on a BBB A5C:

ping: icmp open socket: Operation not permitted

I’ve solved using

Thanks Gary!

This was a bug originally in ubuntu (trusty) looks like the bug (maybe
feature now it's a feature...) has progressed to debian. I'll add the
workaround by default..

Thanks Jason!

I've now merged this change too..
