Hi everyone, I'm more or less new to EMC. I met some of you a few years back at the CNC Workshop in Galesburg. I've always kept EMC in the back of my mind. Finally I've got a use for it, so I've finally decided to try-out/learn EMC2. The final goal of my efforts is a 3-axis Cartesian/gantry robot for pick and place.
Here's a list of the hardware: Asus AT3GC-I computer(Atom 330) MESA 7i43 daughter card(400) MESA 7i33 4-axis servo card AMC analog servo amplifiers Brushless DC motors(300 [W]) Thus far I've got Ubuntu - 8.04 and EMC2 - 2.3.4 installed. I was able to load the hostmot2 drivers/daughter-card firmware yesterday using HAL commands. I launched EMC and tried to open the sim version of axis. I got an error and EMC closed. Similar things have happened when trying to open other configurations(sim and non-sim). This is the corresponding output from dmesg: [ 8764.019682] I-pipe: Domain RTAI registered. [ 8764.019698] RTAI[hal]: <3.6.1> mounted over IPIPE-NOTHREADS 2.0-04. [ 8764.019702] RTAI[hal]: compiled with gcc version 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu3 ).

I'm not sure if this will help. Any insight would be appreciated.
