Hello everyone! I have LinuxCNC master branch working with RTAI on a 64-bit
3.4.58 kernel. Latency-test runs fine and the demo sim works nicely as well.
The makefile in LinuxCNC only compiles with this following patch that I mocked
up when using 64-bit RTAI:

I concede a fix is needed - I still would like to see a clean solution
eventually, at least conceptually.
LinuxCNC is not to first control where the requirement for more flexible
arrangements than just coord mode (all joints) or joint mode (per joint) moves
pops up, so let's see how other
This is a strange one.
Running Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.5.7-xenomai-2.6.2.1 i686)
The PC will boot in normal mode, but with no video. This is an Intel
GMA PC (DN2800MT) so some wierdness is normal, but with the generic
and RTA kernels the problem is just that the system fonts are unusably
I think the extruder needs to be an axis in that it is something that
performs coordinated moves along with X, Y, and Z, but I also think
there is room for it to be a non-traditional axis. By which I mean
the gcode value (which represents the amount of plastic to squirt)
doesn't need to directly

If I boot into the recover mode I _still_ get no video.
The problem may be that when booting with the Xenomai kernel the
X-server is choosing the FBDEV driver, but with other kernels it is
choosing VESA.
I can't help feeling that
Continuing to support Ubuntu 8.04 is fool_hardy_, and I propose we stop.
No pun intended I assume!
- AFAICT, there is only a very small handful of users still running
LinuxCNC on Hardy. I'd wager that those users are quite conservative,
and aren't interested in new features for LinuxCNC

It was falling back to FBDEV after the gma500_gfx driver failed.

I would have to agree, that hardy support should not be dropped. We are
dealing with machine controllers here, not merely consumer PC's that
*have* to have (or so people seem to think) the latest everything every
6 months or sooner.
It makes sense to me to not force people running good stable

Hi list,
Continuing to support Ubuntu 8.04 is foolhardy, and I propose we stop.
Our policy has been up to now that
It makes sense to me to not force people running good stable systems on
older hardware to have to update the whole OS - which might not run as
well or have as good of latency etc - just to get bugfixes and newer
features.
FWIW, My router table is running Hardy even though I put

Unfortunately this is not an option which can be done with anywhere

unreasonable request on our time.
It will both disable userland threads (PCI support uses them), and
make absurd

All I would ask is that whatever parts of the

It doesn't compile for me without -ffast-math. I get the following error
