Re: [Emc-developers] future of rpi?

2019-03-08 Thread Alan Condit
Gene, I know the rpi 3b+ is a 64 bit processor, but I understand that it also runs the 32bit software. So, my question is this, are you running 32bit OS or 64bit? I am looking at various preempt rt kernels for the rpi. Some kernels are up as far as 4.14.74 preempt rt for the 32bit mode. The

I am not a big fan of IBM but I have to say that because they defined the PC bios and interrupt structure, we all owe them a debt of gratitude for the continued degree of compatibility on the X86 machines. I thought that there was already a stable rt-preempt kernel for 4.9 LTS and 4.14 LTS and

If you're used to building kernels all the time, Xenomai on the Rockchip should be a non-issue. The Xenomai mailing list is really helpful too. It'd be best to start with PREEMPT-RT though and make sure that works first. If high latency is the only issue during testing (no kernel panics,

2019-03-08 Thread Alan Condit
I am looking at processors for my next controller. I saw yesterday that the RockPro64 has a PCIe 4x connector. It has a six core RK3399 - dual core A72 - quad core Arm53. At the moment that doesn’t mean much to me. Anyway my question is would it be feasible to use the RockPro64 with a 6i25

[Emc-developers] Change acceleration of tooltip

2019-03-08 Thread Thắng Lê
As i know, linuxcnc cant change accleration during run gcode. So i just wanna change it when linuxcnc is in idle. I tried add "maxacc" command to set acceleration of tooltip in python interface. To do it i modified 2 files: src/emc/usr_intf/axis/extensions/emcmodule.cc (added maxacc function)
