Gene, 12.04 RTAI seems to be solid. I have it running on a live machine. No issues once it is running.
Seb sent out an email on that a couple months ago. Do a search for 12.04 in the subject line and the thread should pop up. There were several posts on that a month plus ago. Installation is straightforward except that Grub gets confused. But that is easily fixed. I have it running on an Intel D525MW board and a Gigabyte E350N WIN8 board. The E350N board is $75 at Newegg (at last check) with a LPT port and the board seems to be well made. It doesn't get much cheaper than that. Hey, 14.04 is not even released yet! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule Dave On 3/25/2014 4:32 PM, Gene Heskett wrote: > On Tuesday 25 March 2014 17:31:50 Sebastian Kuzminsky did opine: > >> On 3/25/14 14:14 , Matt Westveld wrote: >>> This is how I got it working - >>> >>> I followed Andy's post: >>> http://linuxcnc.org/index.php/english/forum/27-driver-boards/27253-7i8 >>> 0-and- 7i77?limitstart=0 >>> >>> Also: >>> http://static.mah.priv.at/public/rt-preempt/README >> That's cool, but it's instructions for a different realtime kernel than >> what Gene was asking about. >> > That is a comparatively minor detail.
