Hi.
I am able to "control" (rather set) a servo with a primitive
RTLinux-module.
It is primitive and a user is still not able to actually "control" the
motor, because I have had no success in deploying fifos at all,
but this had been the original idea.
It looks as if the fifo /dev/rtf[n] does not accept any input.
Fifo creation is done by mknod /dev/rtf[n] c 63 [n]
and the rtf_create()-function is working alright. This is not a
Problem of RTLinux; ordinary ofstreams and ifstreams also fail to
access the device (no error).
The RTL-module reports successful creation of the RT-fifo but the
fifo-handler, as expected, never notices new data.
To the more experienced (newby-hardened) among you my mistake
should be obvious.., please enlighten me. And thanks anyway, this
list has already been a great help.
Michael.
