Miroslaw Wroblewski

Part Number: DLPDLCR2000EVM

Tool/software: Linux

please explain how to booting my own python's scripts in BeagleBoneBlack+TI DLP EVM2000 during start, ( i.e problem is how to set command "export DISPLAY=:0" without SSH Putty connection of course).

What is the proper way- Crontab, init.d, rc.lokal... etc.?

I will be very gratefull for prompt replay

thanks

Mick,

Welcome to the E2E forums, and thanks for your interest in our DLP technology.

There are multiple ways to set various configuration settings and commands to execute on boot. For instance, one way to do it is to set up the commands you want to execute as a service meant to launch on startup. Ultimately, any of the methods above can probably be made to work fine as long as the display driver for the BeagleBone can be initialized before your set up your display. I would suggest avoiding bash profile setups as they only enable when you open the terminal.

Have you checked with the Beagleboard.org community to determine the most elegant implementation option?

Hi Philippe
Nice to hear from you again ...but "I still haven't found what I'm looking for" (U2)
Trully speaking I'm traying to check this during last time (e.g. www.element14.com/.../dlp-pico-display-projector-evm-beaglebone-black-review and other) but my project doesn't start and I can't solve this.
Maybe closer sugestion or links
regards
Mick

Mick,

Were you unable to set the system to configure the EVM as a boot-up service? I'm a little confused what step you are at here. Let me know where you are stuck so that I can assist you further.

Best Regards,

Mick,

Do you still need assistance on this issue? I will tentatively close this thread unless you have further questions.
