The kernels own spi driver has to be disabled in order for rpspi.ko to function as its self contained. Once thats done rpspi works very well, but it uses 4 of the gpio pins to run a potentially 2 channel spi, that linuxcnc only uses one of. I don't know if the gpio's rpspi doesn't use are otherwise open and available. -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
