Hard to tell, this was a few years ago and using a kernel of unknown
quality.
As in, it didn't work well when I tried it with a software stepgen at Wichita, but there were many other possible explanations for the issues.

Anyone tried it with the new RPi-3's?

Well, SPI is now working and it seems to be satisfactory. I created an experimental EPP driver for the 7i90/7i43 (which is why I started this
thread) but it needs to be tested and I am looking for volunteers.

What all would be evolved with testing? We found a use at work to use an RPi-3 for a proof of concept, so I will be jumping back into RPi's for the next while. It would be nice to make sure that the hard real-time and other systems are running correctly, as well as LCNC. I also need to get back to some LCNC projects whenever I can break away the time... Anyway, I or my intern might take a poke at the testing if it does not envolve to much, or if we can find a way to make it work related...
