Hi Michael, Now that the got my more basic gremlins are worked out, I find the i686 box in the shop also freezes with the latency-test, so clearly the problem is with my setup and not a 32-bit vs. 64-bit issue.
I don't see the [permanent] flag set when loading the rtapi modules. I'm going back to try to recreate your setup. Found your kernel config file. If you have one around, please send a LinuxCNC build log to help guess what the differences might be.
