x86 only experimental branch #4

Closed ShabbyX closed 11 years ago

ShabbyX commented 11 years ago

The experimental branch may bring great stuff for x86, but then it would also make RTAI very specific to x86. This means that it would be highly unlikely it would ever make it to mainstream RTAI. Not only that, it has also removed support for earlier kernels (it doesn't compile on my 2.6.38.8)

Please, do NOT merge this branch with master. You can create an x86-only branch for stable releases of experimental if you want.

In the master branch instead we can do cleanups that don't conflict with mainstream RTAI or add features that are portable.

Thanks

Don't worry, experimental will never be merged with master. It's simply a playground for x86-based development.

Matter of fact, because master is doing so well, I'll just remove the experimental branch.
