I've spent the last couple of weeks upgrading my atom based machine from
Ubuntu 10 (github+openssl incompatibilities), but I've had lots of problems
finding a modern distro that allows me to use the latest software (eg qtvcp)
because of library dependencies.

I tried the LinuxCNC Stretch ISO, but that didn't work - running the latency
test never displayed a window and the mouse moved at one update every 5
seconds.  Not to mention orca+alsa using 90% cpu when idle.

I'm using the Wheezy distro at the moment - linuxcnc runs fine, but the
libraries are outdated and many things won't build.

So what are my options for building an RTAI kernel for a modern distro?  
Does RTAI only work with certain kernel versions?  
Can I install a significantly different RTAI kernel version over the top of
an old kernel?  Or would that require rebuilding the whole distro to match
the kernel?

Thanks in advance,
Frank
