The dev that spent years cleaning up and fixing the rtai.org to make it work with LCNC and hosting it at https://github.com/NTULINUX/RTAI just got tired of things. rtai.org would not give him credit and treated him like a pest even though they heavily borrowed his fixes (even at xenomai). Fortune 100's would take months to come up with a pittance to pay for the work. So he's done with any new RTAI work.
The newer posted work at rtai.org is all beta and the really new for current kernels hasn't been made public. 3.16.52 kernel is the latest stable kernel to work with RTAI and LCNC. Anything newer will takes weeks of work by someone that really knows what they are doing. -Bari On 4/24/19 2:42 AM, andy pugh wrote: > On Wed, 24 Apr 2019 at 01:30, Gene Heskett <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Several, your personal config probably makes a far bigger difference than >> the actual version number of the kernel since you have to be pretty well >> up on YOUR hardware to re-configure the kernel you are about to build. > And there is the problem.
