It's a vertical mount server from RackSaver, with an Intel SE7501CW2
motherboard and dual Xeons.
The other EMC2 machine is a D510MO mini-ITX board. It is faster,
smaller, quieter and cheaper...

As much as I love SCSI there are many SCSI chipsets that will stop RTAI dead in
its tracks.
I do have a 2U system board that uses 2 risers for several functions including
plugging in dedicated SCSI modules - so I have the option of leaving them out.

That's a nice rig you got there Rando.
Seeing the bellows in your picture reminded me that it would be nice to

But don't do that if you don't have an SMI problem. It is (allegedly)
potentially dangerous.

Seems like I can only tell, where not to look for the cause of problem

Kinematics module is the place, where You describe, how Cartesian axes
and joints are related. Kinem

I love your approach.
I rewrote my CNC functions (to which I added your great functions) to make
it easier to read and enhance in the future.
Here they are.
CNC_PressButton() {
local BUTTON=$1
local SLEEP=0.1
halcmd setp $BUTTON 1
sleep $SLEEP
halcmd setp $BUTTON 0
Awesome commands to pause and resume, I saved them for later use!!!
The joystick on the wood router is also a nice touch. I use a joypad.

I was thinking to write something on isolcpus on the wiki.

Yes, it works well (though the one I have needs the SMI patch applied
