Hi, Since I'm new to the Gumstick community, please I apologized to not having red all the zillion of previous posts, but I scrolled for subject and I tried the search and I found nothing My problem is basic. After that I followed all the installation notes (Eclipse, JRE, Package add-on for Eclipse, FTDI driver etc ..). I finally got a working Gumstix system and I was able to log on it after boot using the Eclipse Terminal. Everything worked fine Then, since I want to used a Cross-Compler on a Linux Host,I tried to configure the Eclipse remote debugger and tried to communicate with the Gumstix target using a Ethernet connection using to Tobi expansion board. Since this trial, I'm not able to get even a working prompt at the Terminal on my Gumstix target because I always get the following message at the end of booting sequence:overoADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready. I do not want a the stage of my project use the WiFi capability of the Gumstix board. I just want to have a working development environment using Eclipse on a Linux or Windows host, (I choose Linux) cross-compile the code, download the code on the target and run a debugger from my host computer At the end of the boot sequence, the prompt is frozen and it seem that no ternimal inputs are processed. I tried in both Linux and Windows (using hyperterminal) configuration since a suspect the FTDI driver to not work correctely. Same result, on both OS: the prompt is frozen. note: At the countdown at the beginning of the boot sequence, I cannot stop it. It is really look as no terminal input is red by the Gumstix Here the terminal output result (previous output line removed) Starting Network connection manager daemon: NetworkManager.

After that I followed all the installation notes (Eclipse, JRE, Package > add-on for Eclipse, FTDI driver etc ..). What installation notes are you referring to? I've never needed Eclipse or a JRE to get my Gumstix Overo FE working. Please state your hardware -- what expansion board are you using and what gumstix module are you using? Also, what is your goal? Since you are new to the Gumstix line, as I am, I suggest you start slowly and simply. Follow the getting started tutorials here: http://www.gumstix.net/Setup-and-Programming/view/Overo-Setup-and-Programming/Getting-started/111.html Thanks Bob Cochran |

Bob, First, thanks for the reply The installation note that I followed are the one on the Gumstix wiki page for Eclipse. You are right, Eclipse is not required to make the Gumstix works. However to me, in order to get a long term and nice development environment, I choose to develop on my host computer using Eclipse. But the problem is not there. Since I installed Eclipse with all the required packages and drivers (JRE, FTDI, cross-compiler etc..) and I got my Gumstix worked for few days. In Eclipse, there is a remote terminal which can be used to connect on the Gumstix as Kermit or any others serial terminal. Then for any reason, I suddenly got this message at the end of the Gumstix booting sequence: overoADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready. The effect is that the serial terminal is frozen!!! I tried also the Windows hyperterminal with the same result. I'm stuck and I can not communicate with my Gumstix via the serial port which is essential to perform any additional setting. Is any others Gumstix developers face this problem?

Do you have the right serial port settings? 8 N 1, Flow Control should be None in Hyper Terminal. Thanks, Paul Nolan, CEO Idruna Software Inc. |

Paul, Yes my serial communication is set to 115200, 8, N 1 with no flow control on all my serial terminals As I said, my setup used to work !!!! I use the Eclipse IDE It just stop to work suddenly when I got the "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready" message at the end of the boot sequence. Maybe it is not related but I can not communicate with the Gumstix anymore since I got this message. This message is related to WiFi functionality. To isolate the problem, I try with others serial terminals as the windows Hyperterminal to try to communicate with the Gumstix with no success. I just wanted to make sure that nothing was wrong happen in my Eclipse remote terminal setting. I tried two different terminals on two different OS with the same results. I really think that something happened inside the Gumstix board :( However, since I see the booting sequence on my terminal, I will try to investigate more before to order a new board. I will look at the FTDI driver (USB to Serial converter) but I find it strange that both FTDI drivers became wrong on my two configurations (Windows and Linux) Carl Idruna wrote: > > Carl, > >> I'm stuck and I can not communicate with my Gumstix via the serial port >> which is essential to perform any additional setting. >> >> Is any others Gumstix developers face this problem? > > Do you have the right serial port settings? 8 N 1, Flow Control should > be None in Hyper Terminal. > > Thanks, > > Paul Nolan, CEO Idruna Software Inc. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers > to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, > and, > should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database > without downtime or disruption > http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl > _______________________________________________ > gumstix-users mailing list > gum...@li... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gumstix-users > > -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/overoADDRCONF%28NETDEV_UP%29%3A-wlan0%3A-link-is-not-ready-tp30547021p30554666.html Sent from the Gumstix mailing list archive at Nabble.com. |

Only other time I`ve seen this was after I over-voltaged my Summit board to see if it could handle it. By the time the replacement arrived, it started working again, doh. Try removing the Overo and making sure it clicks back in properly. Are you booting from NAND or MicroSD? Try a MicroSD card if NAND, or NAND if using a MicroSD. If you have a HDMI port, see if the desktop works. You could also try plugging something in to the USB port. If you get a message on the console, you can tell if it is really frozen or not. Good luck, Paul Nolan, CEO Idruna Software Inc. |

Paul, I was at to point of using a USB monitor tool is order to make sure that the Keyboard input reach my Gumstix. The old days of RS-232 with a scope seem to be gone :) I effectively removed and spap it again just "in case of" and ..... start to work again. Sometime, the problem are closer than we might think Thanks Carl Idruna wrote: > > Carl, > >> Yes my serial communication is set to 115200, 8, N 1 with no flow control >> on >> all my serial terminals >> >> As I said, my setup used to work !!!! > > Only other time I`ve seen this was after I over-voltaged my Summit board > to see if it could handle it.
