Hello, I followed the suggested install procedure to setup a Xenomai kernel on my x86 Ubuntu system. (http://www.xenomai.org/index.php/Building_Debian_packages) I would like to verify that everything is hunky-dory, but I'm not quite sure how. I have read in some places that "user space" needs to be set up, although this is not mentioned in the reference I followed. Is this still necessary?
The command: dmesg | grep Xenomai Shows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ 0.659903] I-pipe: Domain Xenomai registered.

I extracted the examples to: /usr/xenomai_egs/xenomai-head/examples/ so this would be the directory I would use for the first step. (Although I notice that I also have something at /usr/share/xenomai/testsuite/unit/) The second step, I come across the reference to 'user space', the step being: make XENO=<xenomai-installation-path> KSRC=<xenomai-kernel-source> I do not need a second argument (since I am in the patched kernel) but the first argument is the user space directory. So my next question is to check if the user space (i.e. the XENO variable) refers to the directory /home/<user name>/xenomai-2.5.4 and if so, is it ok to use my default user name?
