Hi, I've installed EMC 2.2.1 onto an old PC from the BDI CD. The system works fairly well even though it is low on RAM and slightly under powered. When I run the RTAI Latency test however I get overruns, and EMC itself refuses to run because of real time errors.
After reading some of the documentation I suspect the onboard video in the machine. Since I am connecting to the machine over ethernet and using X11 to control EMC I am running the machine headless and don't really need the onboard video. (I have configured the machine so it does not run the X server on startup and reduced the memory available to the onboard video card as much as possible). I don't have any other PCs around the house to cannibalize a video card from and I was wondering if it would be possible to disable the onboard video entirely without having to install another video card, and if I did this would it prevent the realtime errors. ie: is it possible to tell the OS not to bother loading video drivers? - Pat ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
