UART0 garbage characters

[Sebastián Sáez]

Hi everyone!

after install the last linux image in the emmc I can't use the UART0 anymore (screenshot attached )

All other function are working, I can do SSH using the softAP interface.

Any suggestions?

I already tried deleting uboot in emmc without lucky

This is my system:

correct UART rate and good ground connection?

Hey Yiling, thanks for the reply

After check the documantation and use the oscilloscope, with a friend we found that this issue is because I use in my custom cape a pull up resistor in pin P8-32 (button connected to this pin)

The pin P8-32 is LCD_DATA15 or SYSBOOT15 and the pull up to 3v3 set this pint to high. 

When you boot the bbone with the P8-32 not pressed, the processor set the cristal at 26MHz and the baud rate is 106500 not 115200

When you boot the bbone with the button in P8-32 pressed, crystal is set to 24MHz

The weird thing is that with Debian 8 I don't see this 

Here is the documentation
