I have built an RTAI-5.3 + Linux-image-4.19.152 package (several times now) but it is no good for my particular machine as my USB Wifi dongle does not seem to work with it. (Despite the RaLink devices being enabled in the config) In fact it seems to not really want to recognise any USB-Wifi dongles (I have quite a collection) The same device _does_ work with the 4.14.174-rtai kernel (from last April) -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
