beaglebone black?

<< < (2/4) > >>

UART:
Mine finally came (USPS) and so did I :-\ :-X  after about 18hrs of pre-loaded Ångström+, tons of manuals, vids and beagleboard.org forums, in one day I'd say this is one of my best investments to date and should therefore meet or exceed my needs of it.

Seeing that it's all bga w/JTAG+ from here as long as I have access to 100% of it, I can't complain. Would like to benchmark GPIOs against specs to see how it does. Thus far it's humming along quite nicely, exceeding my expectations of it so I'm fine.  ;D

I'd reeeally like to TCL this thing, but for now I guess rc.d will do.
I have the RevB, for now, awaiting my RAMmy RevC's to arrive so I can post some goodies about it.

bmarkus:
My experience is that Beaglbone Black (RevB) is much faster than Raspberry Pi. Building extensions takes significantly shorter time.

Debian is a bit ancient with GCC 4.6.3 and many old components, but works. Debian is not optimized for the BBB, GCC default target setting is not using NEON and builds for thumb mode so you do not get the real hw performance.

What is good, Raspberry Pi binaries work :)

bmarkus:
I have now TC running on the Beagle Board Black accessed via SSH :)

UART:
 :o
I'd bet it's hella-faster.
I'm still configuring mine however I'll just cook me up a fresh arm and feed it to the B3 see what happens. Trying to break it :P.  I'm not much of a GUI fan either; I prefer ncurses. It works for what I need it for: SPEED.
Post your results :-\?

bmarkus:
X will come later of course, but first is the normal Linux base :)

I'm rebuilding toolchain and core applications on BBB for ARM7. You can expect an alpha version next week.
