Hi, My new plan was to avoid the issue by simply using another machine. We just received a fujitsu esprimo. About the dell, I proposed to keep it as it was in case it could be useful for the community for me to do some tests, but you mentioned it was not necessary as you already had a machin

Vincent, did you have a chance to try the mentioned patch? It should allow you to use the machine you wanted to use from the start. While it might need some more work to get something like this mainline, i think it is worth trying. But for that to work we need to collect more information and try s

Hi, Thanks a lot for the help and insight. Feels like trying my luck on a different machine is the most straightforward way to get a working setup. Also I may lack the the skills to look into this in a truly useful manner. I will try installing on a fujitsu celsius and see how it goes. If I c

Hi, I set tsc=reliable, and "skipped synchronization checks as TSC is reliable" showed up in the syslog. The machine boots correctly on both the patched and non patched kernel. And in both case everything seems to run fine. On xenomai patched kernel the issues related to the keyboard and glx

I checked the syslog when booting on the non realtime kernel, and indeed the same messages related to TSC showed up. Yet, I do not experience any of the issues observed on the patched kernel (e.g glxgears or keyboard) I ran lstopo and lshw and there seem to be 2 sockets with 12 cores on each.

Hi, Many thanks for the answer. We use new hardware. I am working on a recent dell precision T7910. I did not try to update our older hardware (still in use). Info on the CPU of the new machine: - processor : 23 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 63

Hi, After using for years xenomai 2.5.6 on ubuntu 12.04, we decided to upgrade to ubuntu 14.04 and a newer machine. I installed xenomai 2.6.4 and kernel 3.14.39. The installation boots correctly, the latency is low and our software seems to work ok. But the system has "frequency surge" (I could
