Re: Cannot get basic latency test to work on Intel platform

Retry the latest Vulcano CVS.. LIkely it will change nothing, but just 
to know.
In any case before trying any test watch first what happens when you 
work for a bit of time with Linux after having insmoded rtai_hal.ko.
Did you try it on machine that was running RTAI well already?
