Welcome

i have recently bought a galileo gen 2 board and can't find the software bundle that contains galileo watcher.....where would i look??

How did she take the letter ?

I tried to update the firmware on my galileo gen1 but the tool timed out right at the end of the process. Now the board is completely non-responsive apart from the power light. The old posts showing how to fix this on the intel forum appear to be deleted. Can anyone help me?

Hi guys,

I have a new design for Galileo

Hi, So before I get the Galileo, I just have a few questions. First of all is it possible to SSH into the Galileo and view the desktop(linux desktop) like in the Raspberry Pi where you could use some special programs to control the Pi from a normal PC rather than plugging in a monitor for the Pi.

Also for large projects using the Galileo, where in traditional programming you would split up different parts into classes etc., should I make multiple sketches and run them all or is it better to keep everything in 1 sketch.

Microsoft pulled the links for the WIM for this device and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Do anyone of you all have a copy floating around?

I had configured the image file of Galileo Gen2 in an 8GB memory card which cumulatively took around 1.7GB space. Now if I access the root and try to extract opencv-2.4.9.zip (87MB), it says an error of disk full. I tried extracting opencv-2.4.9.zip in Ubuntu and it took around 192 MB. I thought 8GB memory card would be enough to extract a 192 MB file.

Hello, I am trying to cross compile a kernel for the galileo gen 2 board. I am using kernel sources 3.8.7 because they don't seem to have networking issues. I am using the following command,

make ARCH=i386 CROSS_COMPILE=i586-poky-linux- -j8

Along with a .config file I got from a working kernel I got from a debian build. I made one single change to that .config file, which was enabling swap under general setup through make menuconfig. However it doesn't seem to want to compile for me. Here is the error message through a pastebin.

Can any one suggest a solution to this problem?

So I am playing around with the galileo and I was wondering if the galileo is designed to boot an operating system through the USB port, instead of the SD card slot?

Hi, I'm currently trying to setup a Bluetooth connection on my Galileo Gen2 board. I have the N-6235 Wi-Fi card and somehow my board is not finding any device upon scanning and either appearing in any scan of other devices. I'm using the ubilinux image(EmutexLabs) instead of Yocto. I think I've managed to unblock/setup the Bluetooth, by following some tutorials, which are basically setting up the bluetooth connection, but for some reason my bluetooth doesn't find any device upon scanning. There's also another code which is not running and it's presented on some of the tutorials

root@ubilinux:~# bluetoothd

D-Bus setup failed: Name already in use

PS: I think the correct firmware for the card is installed on the galileo

root@ubilinux:/lib/firmware# ls

iwlwifi-1000-5.ucode iwlwifi-3945-2.ucode iwlwifi-6000g2a-5.ucode

Furthermore, I receive a transfer complete message when programming via Arduino IDE but nothing happens, LED does not toggle and multimeter reading steady 0volts on all pins, regardless of declaring them "high". Not sure what the matter is, I've rebooted both the Galileo and my desktop with no avail. Hoping someone here might be able to help me out :/

This was distributed via email to all recipients of Galileo boards from their Program last year:

We are super excited to announce a new addition to the IOT Developer Program – Raspberry Pi 2!

In partnership with the Raspberry Pi Foundation, we are going to make Windows 10 available for the Raspberry Pi 2. You’ll be among the first to know when we make Windows 10 available for the Raspberry Pi 2.

We will also continue to support the Intel Galileo through the program.

By being part of the Windows Developer Program for IoT you continue to be amongst the first to receive new information about the program, product announcements, beta program updates and launch specifics.

I am currently working on using the Intel Galileo on a quadcopter. I have built the quadcopter and i am using the MPU-6050 as my gyro but i am struggling with the arduino code. has anybody completed a project similar to this that could help?

Hello, hopefully someone can help me figure this out. I have an Intel Galileo Gen 2. I also have an SD card installed with the SD-Card Linux Image (48 MB). I am able to use the Arduino Software 1.5.3 - uploading sketches, updating firmware, etc.

My problem is that I cannot connect the Intel XDK IoT Edition to the Galileo. The Galileo is hooked up to the WLAN and when I try to connect XDK to the IP address if Galileo, I get "Error: connect ECONNREFUSED".

From this documentation, it says to possibly add my PC to the white list with the following command: xdk-whitelist --add <ip address>. When I execute this command on the Galileo I get "xdk-whitelist: command not found".

Does the previously menioted SD-Card Linux Image not have the ability to connect to the XDK? If not, how would I go about doing that?

Thanks for any help!

update: It's been resolved. Looks like the image wasn't good, but I got another one also from Intel's site and that worked. big thanks to /u/rob79. This is the image that worked: https://communities.intel.com/docs/DOC-22226

I posted this on /r/arduino but this might be a better place to ask.

I bought a Gen 2 Galileo today. I've got a Yún and a BeagleBone Black that have both been completely without issue for everything I've tried to do on them. But I'm pulling my hair out with the simplest of tasks on the Galileo. I cannot for the life of me connect via SSH. The problem boils down to not being able to log in via SSH, the password rejected each time. I've tried booting from a micro SD with Debian. I've tried every way I can find to boot in directly. It's a Gen 2 board so I don't have the 3.5" connection, but I've tried everything else I can find.

How on earth can this be so difficult? How can I SSH into the console on this board? Am I messing up the password? It's neither blank nor "root", and the "1224" that's been given for booting off the debian SD card doesn't work either leading me to believe it's not actually booting off the card.

Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, is there a solution? It does me no good at all to own this if I can't get into the console.

I bought the Galileo specifically so I'd have better luck with various linux packages, but I haven't even been able to get through this first step.

Hey! I just wanted to relay a Hackathon around the Galileo Gen 2 Board that takes place in Munich on the 18-19th October.

The first 100 to arrive at the event get a free Galileo Board. Registrations are mandatory under https://iotroadshow.intel.com/de/home/
