Hello emc-dev and xenomai lists, I'm very pleased to announce the availability of one-size-fits-all Xenomai kernel packages for x86 arch. These packages have been successfully tested on umpteen motherboards at this point, and are ready for wider testing.
* Beta status * Distros: Ubuntu Precise and Lucid; Debian Squeeze Architectures: i686 and amd64 Xenomai version: v2.6.2.1, released 2013/01/25 Kernel version: v3.5.7 vanilla Kernel config: Ubuntu 3.5 stock kernel with Xenomai additions The instruction wiki page on linuxcnc.org is somewhat oriented toward LinuxCNC users, but most will apply to the general audience: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?XenomaiKernelPackages *Note to existing users*: The packages are now hosted on Michael's infrastructure, which can rebuild and publish them far faster than mine. Please note the URL change and update /etc/apt/sources.list. Michael Haberler (mhaberler) and I (zultron) invite testers to ask questions on IRC in either the #linuxcnc-devel or the newly-created #xenomai channels on freenode. (Of course, any Xenomai-related discussion on #xenomai is welcome, not restricted to packages.) --------- Huge thanks to skunkworks/Sam Sokolik and Schooner/Mick from the LinuxCNC community for persistence while identifying and solving several tough problems on their myriad systems. Great thanks to Gilles Chanteperdrix and Jan Kiszka, Xenomai developers, for their responsiveness to our dozens of questions. And of course thanks to Michael Haberler for his tenacity while solving problems, testing and helping testers. Happy testing!
