Same thing except the whole email corpus is on this machine, not some other machine with a corporate interest in what my email contains so they can more efficiently spam me. And at least 80% of my posts goto the users list. The sudden onset of following errors did seem to be a question that should be asked on the developer list as it started w/o my doing anything except keeping the machines up to date from master a couple times a week, and it was rapidly answered, and fixed.
One thing I think I do well is playing the canary in the coal mine, so stuff like this gets caught and publicized back to the developers before it gets into an official release. In my case its a 99.99% total loss shop, so being laid up for a bit while such things get smoothed over does not disable an income producing machine. I never did sub to the machinekit list since they tend to think the bbb is the best, but its architecture needed a major rewrite of lcnc to run on it. Or so it seemed to me. Here, running it on a pi 3b pushes the pi a bit but still gives decent results. My only pi os problem just showed up 2 or 3 days back, there is a new video driver, I assume is faster, but it also married to the latest raspbian kernel, which is NOT an RT kernel, and no one has built the more recent RT kernels (that actually work)for the armhf yet. I have but then how does one install it on a u-boot machine?. Questions about that have been ducked or ignored on the raspian forum, little if any interest in machine controllers there. And no interest in starting a mailing list in that camp. There are other, much faster one board sbc's (rock64) out there, but with essentially zero support, much less than the pi has. So I'm essentially stuck with the pi. I can build an RT kernel for the arm64 on the rock64 in about an hour, but questions about how to install it have been ignored on their forum, repeatedly. Ditto with odroid-c2. Thanks Erik -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
