I'd have real serious doubts about that Petter, no reason to as LinuxCNC, other than needing the RTAI patched kernel for its I/O, can live happily with any common drive setup I have ever done over better than the last decade. These guys, while fairly savvy with computers, are for the most part, Machinists first as thats what pays the bills. Given their druthers & spare time, or an itch to scratch, they would put their efforts into a better gui to run it with. Or running down bugs and fixing them. Generally speaking, its been years since I have encountered a show stopper bug. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
