Re: [Emc-users] Mini-itx Control
I tested emc2 on Intel Little Valley 2. There are some (known) problem with integrated graphical card, it is not very well supported under ubuntu. The latency test of emc2 showed no errors.

I've run EMC and real time on C3 sorts of processors almost as long as I've been running EMC. I was doing it when Yodakin and FMS was saying you couldn't. If I remember IBM owned em way back then. My jetway MiniITX Via 1G board holds a record for one of the smallest jitter numbers listed on the wiki. That is with the onboard display. http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Latency-Test > A lack of PCI > slots makes ITX less desirable for me, plus micro-ATX boards tend to be > much cheaper and not that much bigger. Both true. I get around the single PCI slot by adding a dual riser card but if I populate that slot with a Mesa I can build up a pretty impressive system in a pretty small space. As for cheap, I'm as much into it as the next person but I also like some stability over time and Jetway assured me that there were four more years of the board I've got. Try that with a "consumer" board. I've got two "identical" boxes built the same week with different versions of mobo. m2cw Ray - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Kirk, >> I have had trouble getting Linux to run on my C3 ITX board, but that was quite a while ago. I would be interested in knowing if anyone has gotten EMC2 or Linux to run on one of these. It would make a nice low power router/gateway or EMC2 remote. << I have had good success using the Via C7 mini-itx boards (see: http://www.mini-box.com/Hybrid-C7-1-5G?sc=8&category=99). The main problem I had was between some power supplies and the IDE Flash module (4 GB) I was using. Changing either the power supply or the flash module has remedied the problem. I talked to the PS manufacturer, and the problem seems to be with the rise time of the 5V (IDE bus) relative to the 12V which powers the flash module. The result was that the system did not boot reliably. The PS manufacturer suggested putting a cap on the 5V (I tried once without success), but changing to a different flash module fixed the problem for me, so I have not re-investigated. I use a riser card for the Mesa 5i20 board. The first enclosure I used was from mini-box, but the Mesa board did not mount very well, so I went to a Travla enclosure which does a better job of accommodating the Mesa board and comes with panel mount brackets. I was also able to get EMC to run under the smaller footprint Xubuntu on this board. Real simple actually, all that was really required was to run the install script manually.
