Scour the dev list archives. There's some work in progress to get LinuxCNC running under a mainstream kernel with PREEMPT_RT, which should make it much easier to port to alternate architectures (although if you're currently using just a parallel port you may need some hardware support like a Mesa card or something). IIRC, there were also some folks talking about porting to a Beagle Board awhile back in the archives. Any progress made there could be used to leverage into Raspberry Pi support. - -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+rJw8ACgkQLywbqEHdNFyb1gCgoQDZEL1ppbEpa3HxSTK7+xDV HpUAn10Z1PvGBZ3iSA6S4AmdyTY/z5l6 =BbrI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
