Hi Bas. what I'm after is a low-end platform like the BeagleBone running most or all of LinuxCNC with the best stepper performance achievable while still running one of the userthreads RT styles, RTAI being not an option and Xenomai heading for userthreads. I'd be willing to put some effort in

It looks like it is time to start throwing together some breakout code in experimental repositories (github or bitbucket maybe) for L3. What I am talking about is sketches which are intended to be thrown away later and used to inform the new version 3 design. On Nov 20 2012 12:54 PM, Michael H

Good news! I've ordered a Pi (Farnell re-directs to a local distributor), but the delivery-time seems to be 3 weeks right now(?) It seems that the SPI interface will be most useful for high-speed IO. If I understood correctly the Pi supports only two separate chips on the SPI-bus, but on IRC PCW m
