Norns: update 201113

[tehn]

this is after the latest update? still sc fail?

can you get in maiden, do ;restart on the SC tab?

[michael_matos]

Yes. This was after the latest push. In maiden ;restart gives me
ERROR: Variable ‘root’ not defined.
in file ‘/home/we/dust/code/grd/engine_grd.sc’
line 59 char 3:
});

}

that one might be a grd error which I think got fixed. Update grd just in case (if possible) - or delete

201115 went great for me. no issues! thank you for all the work you put into these.

[tehn]

@okyeron is correct, this is not related

[michael_matos]

Thanks for everyone’s help. I removed and reinstalled grd and everything works. Not sure what happened but I’m excited everything is back to normal. You people rule!

Sooooooo I just went through the usual System > Update steps and everything seemed fine, but I can’t get my shield to boot up! I’ve power cycled a few times now - all I get is two flashes from the green LED and then nothing.

Curious to see if this has happened to anyone else lately. I know I’ve updated at least once since June and didn’t have any issues then. Do I need to reimage or…?

[dan_derks]

oy, sorry to hear about the trouble – we haven’t heard any similar reports, but you can still access all of your files by inserting your sd card into your computer and looking at the rootfs drive under /home/we/.

if you need to get up and running quickly, i’d suggest grabbing the files you need and doing a fresh flash. if you can, please keep maiden open when you do the next update so you can catch any errors – please keep us updated!

[unicity]

Thanks! I ended up doing a fresh flash and am back in business. Not sure what happened but looks like it’s behind me now.

[unicity]

Hello! That sounds a lot like what happened to me last night. Flashing the card did the trick.

Instructions are here:

i am perplexed why shield updates are not happening correctly for some people— it worked as expected on mine here. were you all able to re-run it after installing the new image? has anyone succeeded in running the update from the shield?

[Oootini]

Yup no problem. I kicked off the update and walked away. When I returned some minutes later the screen was completely blank and unresponsive. I did a power cycle and everything came back up on the correct version.

Are folks unplugging half way though the update maybe?

[theau]

So, I flashed the micro sd card as described with a new image. Flashing went fine. As soon as I plugged the usb power to my fates, I still get a dark screen and red light…

[koerby]

looks like that my stock norns died after the lasted update and needs a fresh installation.
After the update it won’t go to sleep, so i pressed the reset button. Now it’s dead

[koerby]

Pretty strange, after several power cycles, norns came back to live but with the old version. I re-run the update and now ith runs smooth.

[infinitedigits]

ran the update this morning on my shield with no problems!

[unicity]

I just tried running the update again after flashing and it worked fine this time around.

I had mentioned to Dan yesterday that when I looked at the contents of the card before flashing it, I did notice that some files had a modified date that was actually in the future, but I didn’t investigate further because that was the “ok probably time to flash” moment for me.

When I attach a handler to midi.remove, it’s called with 0 arguments. Is this a regression, an existing bug, or am I doing something wrong?

    midi.add = function (dev)
        -- handler code
    end

[michael_matos]

my factory Norns has been acting weird since the update. now it shows loading screen, then is blank. I can see it in maiden and add and delete scripts but the screen is blank. after a bit maiden shows
libmonome: error in write: Resource temporarily unavailable
