12:53.57kashyapcHi, on my Cubietruck, I formatted a microSD card with Fedora21, and have a CP2102 USB to TTL UART cable connected to my Fedora-21 laptop.
12:54.44kashyapcOnce I insert the micrSD card into Cubietruck and power it on (by connecting the USB to DC cable), I don't see anything on the serial console.
12:55.42kashyapcI connected to the serial console via '$ screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200'
12:55.51kashyapcAny hints as to what's going on?
12:56.06hegemoOnwhat is the s standing for ?
12:56.15hegemoOnin 's screen ....'
12:56.19premobosskashyapc, try minicom on laptop
12:56.54kashyapcinstalls minicom
12:57.19ThePiixelMonsterlol

12:58.31hegemoOn<PROTECTED>
12:58.50hegemoOnha its a $
12:58.57hegemoOnmay be try sudo screen
12:59.23hegemoOnwhat is the outpout of dmesg ?
13:01.30ThePiixelMonsterI'm looking into getting my hands on one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cubietruck-Kit-Single-board-Cubieboard3-Cortex-A7/dp/B00INRN2W0/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1417956973&sr=1-2&keywords=cubieboard it seems to be the cheapest that I can find one here in the UK though, a few people have told me to look towards a NUC instead but I think that I would personally rather this little thing to be honest... Does anyone know if this is
13:01.30ThePiixelMonsteractually a good price for it?  I would like one for doing some web work and being able to set it up when visiting family and also if its possible some very light 3d work (low poly modelling) on it... Would it indeed be capable?
13:01.44kashyapchegemoOn: The $ symbol was a copy/paste, of course, I connected via the correct ttyUSB0 device that showed up in systemd journal logs
13:02.01kashyapchegemoOn: And, the screen session is connected as root
13:02.12hegemoOnok

13:08.58kashyapcpremoboss: hegemoOn: Okay, just installed minicom, and did the serial device setup to /dev/ttyUSB0
13:09.10kashyapcNow, tried to send (S) an ASCII text file to test. . .
13:09.11premobossgood
13:09.22premobosshave a try, to me it works everytime i tryed
13:09.23hegemoOn:)
13:09.37hegemoOneverything works fine with screen for me
13:09.47premobossgood boy :-)
13:10.13kashyapcnever tried with minicom before, still fiddling
13:10.45ThePiixelMonsteranyone running linux on the cubieboard3 ?
13:10.46kashyapchegemoOn: Do you think if I could be missing something? I connected the CP2102 cable Rx to Tx (and vice-versa) to Cubietruck
13:10.53premobossthere are more way to reach the same town...
13:11.27hegemoOn[root@alarm ~]# uname -a

13:11.31hegemoOnyop :)
13:12.00hegemoOnby default the serial is active
13:12.12hegemoOnare you sure of your plugging ?
13:12.23hegemoOnonly three of the four must be plugged
13:12.33kashyapcMeanwhile, the minicom test to upload an ASCII file: http://fpaste.org/157343/79579001/
13:12.44kashyapchegemoOn: Yes, only 3 are plugged in.
13:13.00hegemoOnok
13:13.09kashyapcThe 3rd is the GND on CP2012 connected to the GND on Cubetruck
13:13.23hegemoOnthen in minicom did you define the link speed ?
13:13.31hegemoOnnever used minicom
13:13.36ThePiixelMonsterI am trying to figure out if I would actually be able to do some light 3d work on one of these things, could someone attempt to install and run Blender (www.blender.org) ad tell me if you are able to run it ok? I think that I should be able to... but dot want to drop £75 on one without knowing...
13:13.37kashyapchegemoOn: I guess it took the default
13:13.52ThePiixelMonsterad = and
13:14.03ThePiixelMonstern key doesnt work too well on this thing
13:14.41kashyapchegemoOn: Were you asking me - about "are you sure of your plugging"?
13:14.57hegemoOnkashyapc: yes :)
13:15.42kashyapchegemoOn: If so, yeah, like I mentioned above: Rx to Tx from Cable (and vice versa), and GND from cable to GND on Cubeitruck.
13:16.08kashyapchegemoOn: And, the device shows up in my system logs, and I can connect to it via serial console.
13:16.52kashyapchegemoOn: Btw, when I connect the USB to DC power cable to Cubietruck, the 'green' (data) light on CP2012 cable gets turned off.
13:17.20kashyapcjust begun to play with this, feel free to disregard me, if you're occupied with something else.
13:20.10hegemoOnno
13:20.30hegemoOnim just busy with my own stuff :)
13:21.10kashyapcNp.
13:23.35ThePiixelMonsterok I think that I should be ok for what i want to do I suppose... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAPPKJ5JLv8

13:49.34kashyapcAh, nice. The normal USB to TTL UART cable I got from Cubietruck worked just fine to boot into my Cubietruck
13:50.03kashyapcCrazy, then I needlessly bought this CP2102 cable, wonder if it's faulty. But it's detected as a device
13:52.29hegemoOnhehe
