Hi there,

I'm currently working on setting up rtnet on a gumstix running xenomai  
2.4-rc3 / linux-2.6.20. Everything works fine up to the point where I  
try to ping rtlo as in, try running "rtping 127.0.0.1". As soon as I  
run that command, the system freezes. I am accessing the gumstix  
hardware using a serial console which also displays kernel messages  
but there is nothing suspicious to be found.

When playing around with xenomai, I noticed the same "kind" of freeze  
trying to run the latency test with the default period of 100us so at  
first I thought it might be a problem with the relatively slow cpu  
used on my gumstix (it's an intel xscale pxa255 with 400mhz) but I'm  
not too sure about this. I'd really appreciate any pointers you can  
give me as I am quickly running out of good ideas myself.

Other useful information about my setup and what I did:

steps to make rtping freeze:

# cd /usr/local/rtnet/
# insmod ./modules/rtnet.ko

*** RTnet 0.9.10 - built on Nov  2 2007 13:09:41 ***
