Hi, could you provide the steps on how to load ctag or bela as an audio driver–how can be loaded via a device tree overlay? I would need the debian image with graphical desktop, and this img is without LXQT https://github.com/ctag-fh-kiel/bela-ctag/wiki .
tree overlay
the BB-AUDI-02 overlay will work for the Bela cape. For CTAG you'd need either BB-CTAG-SW-16CH-00A0.dts or BB-CTAG-SW-8CH-00A0.dts depending on whether you are using BEAST or FACE, respectively. These are all mainlined on BeagleBoard's repos, so I expect that they'd be available out of the box on any image they distribute.
could you describe how to do it step by step, please? I am a total beginner with Linux. thx.
hmm I wouldn't know the exact steps, because they ship a different image from ours. This probably involves editing a file in /boot/uEnv.txt
. The best place for generic beagleboard-related questions would be forum.beagleboard.org .

ok, thanks. However, I still struggle with the issue of how to install Sonobus or Jamulus on the BBB with using BELA as audio hardware with ALSA. I started to address it here https://forum.bela.io/d/1628-peer-to-peer-audio-streaming/13 . Do you have any experience with how to install Sonobus without graphical display and then use it as a standalone BBB and Bela unit?
I never used it. By the looks of it, it does require a GUI. You could maybe contact its developers?
giuliomoro I already tried this https://forum.bela.io/d/1210-davinci-mcasp-too-fast-reference-clock/5 . But basically, I would need exactly like this (with the jack sound server and supercollider, https://github.com/ctag-fh-kiel/bela-ctag/releases , https://github.com/ctag-fh-kiel/bela-ctag/wiki ), but with the Debian img – OMAP3/DM3730 Debian 9.5 2018-10-07 4GB SD LXQT .
Is it possible to somehow upgrade the image with BB-CTAG-SW-8CH-00A0.dtbo , BB-CTAG-SW-16CH-00A0.dtbo , BB-BONE-AUDI-02-00A0.dtbo ?
giuliomoro I already successfully installed it. But still missing the Bela audio hardware

if this is correct?
I still got that
gulesz if this is correct?
this looks OK to me.
gulesz I still got that
can you try :
cat load-ctag-beast-16ch-drivers.sh
so that I can see its content? I don't actually know what's in there.
Then try:
ls -l
to verify whether it's actually executable.
Then, to run it regardless of its executable state:
bash -x ./load-ctag-beast-16ch-drivers.sh
i got this
OK, so that script only loads the overlay, which shouldn't be needed if you loaded it via uenv.txt
. Can your run dmesg | tail -n 20
immediately after you run bash -x ./load-ctag-beast-16ch-drivers.sh
? T
Also, what's the output of aplay -l
and aplay -L
?

ok. Let's get the competent expert in. @henrix !
ok, thanks so far
just for recapitulation, the point is to use Sonobus on Debian LXQt with the I/O of Bela/CTAG/Bela Mini.
