Eventually I want to use PRU and want to disable HDMI to have more inputs available. I setup WiFi and verify it works. In /boot/uEnv.txt, I uncomment
##BeagleBone Black: HDMI (Audio/Video) disabled:
dtb=am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb
and reboot.
Once back in I try to ping my server and get the response: “connect: Network is unreachable”. Trying to use “sudo connmanctl” gives all sorts of complaints such as ‘Method “Scan” with signature “” on interface “net.connman.technology” doesn’t exist’. Re-commenting the dtb line and rebooting allows WiFi operation again (without even need to go through connmanctl again).
Is there a way to disable the HDMI while retaining WiFi?
