Sure. I made RTAI kernel packages for Jessie (both 32-bit and 64-bit), they're currently available in the linuxcnc.org debian archive. But they were not stable when running on the virtual machines in the buildbot. It's unclear to me whether that's because of a bad interaction between the RTAI patchset and the virtualized nature of the buildbot, or whether it's because of some more deep-seated problem with the new RTAI kernels. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
