I cannot update the BeagleY-AI any Longer?

General Discussion

Hello,

I cannot update the BeagleY-AI any longer. Is something going on currently that is preventing the updates?

6.6.58-ti-arm64-r26 is my kernel.

and…

BeagleBoard.org Debian Bookworm Xfce Image 2025-03-05 is the image.

Should I update to a newer image or something?

Do not get me wrong. Everything works in respect to GPIO. See here:

It seems wlan0 is out with no wifi enabled. I tried to enable the wifi with no luck.

All is back up and working…

Also, if anyone gets around to enjoying coding source for morse code…

I have found that source from this site, https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/ , with their RPi code, switching to Python3 and gpiod.h use cases is as easy as one would think…

P.S. Enjoy. It works but it errors out. Do you know why this code errors out when you type . or -?

The commented out Python2 code is the original from the link given and so is the dictionary in Python2/3.

I figured out why the error prevailed at the end of the run of source.

So, the code runs but then errors out because of the line input = input('What shall we send...?').

Call input something else like so:

put_LED_here = input('What shall we send...?')

Then, in the first for statement, we then call for letter in put_LED_here instead.
