The parport configuration works fine but the hm2_stepper config is

Yep, slow system, problems with parport and not enough I/O made me buy
two 5i20 cards (and a 7i43) card. One 5i20 for the main system, one as a
backup/second system at home and the 7i43 to play around with and try

Please let me know if I have miscalculated in drawing up my plans.
The SheevaPlug supports USB, i2c and serial so this is how I will
interface to
a stepper controller board. The SheevaPlug is advertised to cost $99
in onesies.

Yes, you can fit the required files on all but the smallest USB sticks.

The package is less than 20 MB, so it should fit on a USB stick.
You said you're on 2.2.8, did you install from the 8.04 LiveCD? If so
you can grab the

As far as I know, rtai (the real-time kernel that emc2 uses on x86
ubuntu systems) does not currently support the Sheeva ARM CPU. Before
emc2 can run on a system to control hardware, you have to either port a
supported rtos to it, or port rtapi to an rtos that is available for
that system.

This is a reminder that the North American Model Engineering Society
Expo (NAMES) is this upcoming weekend (4/18-19, 2009) in Toledo, Ohio.
This is a fun show--many model engineers with some very impressive
model engines and devices of all kinds. Also new and used tooling,
machine tools
I am a beginner in linux programming. Please tell me how to use the compiler
such as Glade or Eclipse to compile emc2 source.

Generally it is supposed to be a digital signal, but on motors that
