Re: [time-nuts] UT+ Software for Linux?

I have lost the thread here but if not already mentioned, there is the driver for Oncore receivers in ntp already, or if you are happy with the win apps you could run them in Linux under Wine or VirtualBox. Le 14 juil. 2013 à 02:05, Bob Stewart a écrit : could run them in a linux box OK,

Twio things you can do (1) NTP will work with the UT+ and you can set quite a few parameters. The Oncore driver is one of the better NTP drivers and (2) you can alway run Windows inside a VMware image. So you just run the Windows program on the Linux system inside VMware (VMware is a free

Boy I lost the thread also. Though I like what I think I am reading. VMware is a hypervisor and it is free. What I think I am reading is there is a UT+ with NTP image on a OS already existing as as a VMimage. Clearly if the only thing you want to run is the windows or linux NTP server you don't

The goal was only to run the UT+ software on a Linux system. This is very easy, you make it sound complex. The UT+ software is an .EXE file The only thing that would be running inside the VM is Windows (Likely a very old version) and the above software. NEVER try and run NTP inside a VM. It

Rater then removing the code from the NTP driver, I just run NTP. If you have the UT+ running to drive your GPSDO, why not also have it drive an NTP server? I had this setup in an Intel Atom powered system untill recently when the motherboard failed (after many years running 24x7) Now I am

[time-nuts] UT+ Software for Linux?

2013-07-13 Thread Bob Stewart
OK, this isn't as easy as I thought it would be.  Is there any Linux software to interface with the UT+, or will I have to swap out a disk and boot Windows to get the eval software from Synergy-GPS to work?  I see some primitive source code on the net but getting anything useful out of that
