MEAM.Design - BeagleBoard Xm - Getting Started in OS X
Remote Login
The first thing you need to do is simply connect to the BBXm. This is accomplished by running 'ssh remoteusername@hostname' on your local machine. The hostname that you supply as an argument is the hostname of the remote machine that you want to connect to. Such as in this example:
| ssh ubuntu@ipaddress |
The first time around it will ask you if you wish to add the remote host to a list of known_hosts, go ahead and say "yes" and enter the password.
If you are on the local "slalom" network, you can just type the following to login to the robot
| ssh ubuntu@robot_name.local |
Password: ubuntu
Enable VNC on the robot
To enable VNC on the robot, ssh into the BBXm and run the following command in the terminal prompt.
| x11vnc -display :0 & |
