FAQ

Is Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) enabled by default on the Nitrogen8M Mini?

Yes, DVFS is enabled by default.  

The status can be checked by cat'ing the sysfs node below:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state

This will provide the time spent in each state, thus verifying that DVFS in enabled.  


How do I set the bootloader back to its default configuration?

The command env erase will restore defaults when executed in the bootloader.

How do I configure my network connection?

sudo wget https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo -O /usr/local/bin/repo
sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/repo

When you run the repo init command for the first time you will be asked to configure your name and email. You can also set these values with the following commands:

git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global color.ui true
