its at a 100% charge and i’m going to leave it off and disconnected from the power supply. I’ll report back when i get off work in a couple hours

i’m suspecting some updates are not completing correctly. we’re working on a more robust update process, but in the meantime i’ll get fresh system images online along with instructions for a full system reset.

updated norns via alternate method, cause I can’t update via usb for for some time now. don’t know why…

at the end I got this line:
cp: cannot stat 'norns-image/config/bashrc': No such file or directory

once complete I did this:
rm -rf /home/we/update/*
sudo shutdown now

now it shows updates 181101 so I assume everything is ok, right?

FWIW, I ran 181101 and updated with no problems. I am not using wifi and I only have Grid in USB port #1. I ran Loom yesterday - just running 5-8 notes/triggers and barely editing to see how long it would run until it crashes. 10 trials and everyone resulted at some point (5mins to 40mins) to lock up Grid, get the buzzing sound of death and had to “hard reset”. Battery is fully charged and running off my USB power directly into grounded power outlet. Curious why I keep getting crashes. I am new to Norns/Monome so it may be me, but any ideas? Thanks in advance. It also crashed on Boing twice as well. I have yet to use MLR other than some playful exploration BTW.

we’re working on some CPU optimizations. try disabling the AUX reverb in the meantime for some extra headroom.

thanks! Will do, appreciate the heads up!

Since turning off Reverb, Loom has been smooth and steady!

Hello everyone,

I have also been having more stability issues since updating to this version, specifically with apps like MLR, RYMD and Shifty that allow for use of norns two inputs. Any audio signal that I send into norns becomes incredibly distorted and glitchy regardless of the app that is currently running. I have also been having numerous lock ups with Kayan as well as the apps previously mentioned. I have tried disabling the AUX reverb and my CPU never goes above 40% or so with no concerning temperature changes either. Let me know if there is any other info I can provide

hey im on update 181023 with 4 tracks in mlr. is the 181101 update have 7 tracks ?

#23

something certainly seem broken. i would suggest re-running the update manually, which requires a bit of tinkering. here’s a repost of how to do this:

how to re-run an update

Start up norns, connect via serial. Open a Terminal window and type:

screen /dev/tty.usbTAB 115200

Where TAB is push tab on your keyboard to autocomplete the name of the usb device. Push enter again to get a login.

User: we

PW: sleep

Now you’re loggged in.

Type:

cd update

ls

If you see norns181101.tgz then jump to step 2 below. If it’s not there, insert your USB stick with the .tgz file on it. Then type

sudo cp /media/usb0/*.tgz /home/we/update

Step 2:

tar xzvf norns181101.tgz

tar xzvf 181101.tgz

cd 181101

./update.sh

on completion:

sudo shutdown now

@kin.sventa mlr is not updated in 181101. an update with 7 tracks and mute groups (4 voices max play at once) is forthcoming (working on it now, alongside many general norns features and fixes)

Thanks Brian,

I just tried to re-run the update, however when i get to the ./update.sh step i receive an error saying

cp: cannot stat ‘norns-image/config/bashrc’: No such file or directory

I have tried a couple of times and it gives an identical error each time.

#25

That sounds so awesome. Can’t wait ! Thank you for all your hard work.

#26

Warning: I am not a programmer, so please take this with not a grain, but a ton of salt. Can the error above be caused by this missing directory?

@tehn: Can this be fixed manually by creating an according folder via e.g. Cyberduck?

#27

I had the same error occur and had a quick investigate. It does need to be fixed, but in this instance it’s not that important.

(That step occurs at or near the end of the update script and the change it makes is very minor, AFAIK all it changes is the prompt when you ssh in.)

#28

I am still having the same issues persist so I don’t believe the re-update worked or applied properly again. Would it most likely be this that is preventing the update?

#29

seems it’s time to do some deeper investigation. can you e-mail info@monome.org and i’ll get together some image reset instructions.

#30

Did this get resolved? Fascinating script.

Nope, I’ve reinstalled the firmware and resented my dust folder on a USB but it has fixed anything. I miss the script. Any ideas on getting working again?
