Greetings all; What sort of problems due to internal architecture changes would I encounter? Currently using an rt-prempt version of 4.4.4 kernel labeled kernel7 since no later armhf/v7 kernel rt build has even usable keyboard/mouse support, with or without the extra usb2 hub for the dongles. This extra hub will be used in any event since the box its mounted in will eventually be buttoned up, severely restricting the range of the wireless dongles.
This one is usable if rebooted repeatedly until it mostly works. But you've got to be chewing kentucky's finest twist and holding your mouth just so, otherwise it throws more keyboard/mouse events in the trash than it responds properly to. The potential for fixing this is the driver for switching to a rock64. Suggestions as to where to src a suitable image for the rock64, hopefully one compatible with the current rpspi.ko driver (available as part of any recent linuxcnc install from buildbot.linuxcnc.org for armhf's, since except for keyboard/mouse, video(hdmi,mali drivers a huge plus) and LAN net stuffs, all other i/o is thru the gpio for this application, will be investigated. Thank you. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
