Hi Yesterday I compiled xeno trunk (revision 240) for my Powerbook. Using the 2.6.13 kernel I only did some early boot messages the last one was "openpic: exit".
Using the 2.6.14 kernel I had no problem starting up and using it for a couple of hours. (I am writing this email with it.) The diff in the configs concerning xenomai is the following for the 2.6.14 I choose the selected skins (native, uvm, rtdm, vxworks) as modules and for the 2.6.13 everything as built in. The I switch to root and did the following: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/xenomai/lib modprobe xeno_native modprobe xeno_uvm ./koan Xenomai/uvm: real-time nucleus v2.1 (Surfing With The Alien) loaded. The latency/switch test gave the following results: ng:/usr/xenomai/testsuite/latency# ./latency == Sampling period: 100 us RTT| 00:00:01 RTH|-----lat min|-----lat avg|-----lat max|-overrun|----lat best|---lat worst RTD| -7541| -7052| 1030| 0| -7541| 1030 <..> RTS| -7758| -7052| 1139| 0| 00:00:09/00:00:09 ng:/usr/xenomai/testsuite/switch# ./switch == Sampling period: 100 us == Do not interrupt this program RTH| lat min| lat avg| lat max| lost RTD| 2387| 2441| 9928| 0 Then I tried running xeno-info which did run fine (see attachment) I got into problems running xeno-test as it managed to shutdown my system three times. The first time while running cat /proc/looadavg, the second time while "running quietly for 10 seconds" and the third time very early. What is wrong with my tests? Any hints would be appreciated. -- Niklaus Giger
