Hi! I found some troubles using Emcrsh program. The detailed description is here http://www.linuxcnc.org/component/option,com_kunena/Itemid,20/func,view/catid,38/id,13940/lang,english/ In addition, my Emc software version was initially not latest 2.4.6, but version packed into liveCD image. I then update it to 2.4.6 but no difference. I can't test version 2.4.7, because mentioned in announce 'Debian packages are availble from the regular package servers' i can't find anywhere. When i build from source, i see Emcrch binary, but don't see Emc main executable (probably due to i don't have real-time developement libs). I try to substitute Emcrsh 2.4.7 binary into existing Emc2 2.4.6 instalation, but still no success. I also notice that increase Base_period from 100000 to 500000 mostly solves this problem (but not completely solves), but software stepgens not work anymore with it. I disable all i found relevant to problem in my BIOS setup (USB, sound, CPU features, etc.) but no difference. Jitter is: 3100 ns when idle, and up to 6700 ns when i abuse computer (glxgears etc). (these values taken after i moderately modify BIOS settings). No jitter peaks i notice. I have Intel Celeron E14 06FD 2.0GHz CPU and Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L motherboard. Onboard videocard used. I use cheap parallel port step drivers. I have 4 axis. My initial setup was standard liveCD EMC2 which work out-of-box, and i am able to mill without any problem, when not use Emcrsh. I am very novice in EMC, RTAI and machining at all.
