Please say what you are installing on what. You appear to be trying to install a Jessie package on Stretch, because Jessie is the only one with that version dependency. So make sure your sources.list is correct and run apt update first Yes for now, purge your packages and reinstall I will ch

Hey Bas, really appreciate your help with this. I've looked for man pages on scarakins and hal_gpio and neither seem to have one yet. I suppose because they are still new in the project. So I looked at the .c source files on github to try and find out how they work. Looking at scarakins.c the com

Perhaps I should have loaded that and it would prevent some of the errors generated later in the file. But the system I am looking to control is a stepper-based setup, and I'm not certain if the reference to SERVO_PERIOD is directly related to a servo drive, or if it is just a concept that appli

Shouldn't you have somewhere loaded the motion component? I mean the # loadrt [EMCMOT]EMCMOT servo_period_nsec=[EMCMOT]SERVO_PERIOD num_joints=[TRAJ]AXES tp=tp kins=scarakins line in your HAL code. (But then, maybe you are doing it somehow differently.) C. Dne čtvrtek 28. února 2019 0:13:07
