17:45 KBme> hello.
17:46 KBme> I am having a problem with to hummingboard 1.5 revision, with the integrated wireless chipset.
17:47 KBme> And my issue doesn't seem to be reproducible. Sometimes, and even in some cases almose all the time, the chipset doesn't show up at all. The module is not loaded by linux and the network device doesn't show up.
17:50 KBme> I'm going to update u-boot and the ti firmware but I am not very hopeful.
19:18 KBme> yeah, that didn't help :(
19:20 KBme> I do get
19:20 KBme> [ 0.106064] tiwl_osc_reg: 3300 mV
19:20 KBme> [ 0.106327] tiwl_reg: 3300 mV
19:20 KBme> but that's it
19:20 KBme> may be due to heat?
19:36 KBme> nope
19:37 KBme> jnettlet[m], an idea?
20:52 KBme> lol no friggin way
20:52 KBme> I found a way to reproduce
20:52 KBme> hilarious
20:53 KBme> if I use the reset button to reboot the machine the ti wifi interface never shows up, even after 100 reboots
20:53 KBme> looool
20:56 KBme> nope, just a coincidence. I managed to catch the 1 in 1000 times the device broke
21:24 KBme> yeah, I found a pretty reliable way to reproduce the bug
21:25 KBme> jnettlet[m], reset the machine using the button when the temperature is around 50 degrees
21:25 KBme> and once it happens no number of soft reboots will bring the interface back
21:26 KBme> a power-cycle (unplugging AC and replugging) does bring the interface back
21:26 KBme> rabeeh, ^
