RaspbianXenomaiBuild "startx" problem
I have installed the pre-built image to my Raspberry Pi from this page: wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?RaspbianXenomaiBuild
It started successfully, but when I run "startx" , I got : "command not found"
Does this pre-built image contains a graphic interface? or it should be installed by myself?
I'm not familiar with Linux....any help will be apprecated.

All the installation is either by chroot or over ssh and testing is over ssh.
Hopefully Kinsa will read this and advise, but that is how it looks to me

I am planing to build a CNC system with Raspberry Pi and a FPGA board.
It's a little disappointing that Kinsa's pre-built image doesn't work .
But I believe it will. Hope for Kinsa's great work

I think it works as he intended. The RPi is probably going to be built into the machine and he can ssh into it from a remote computer.
This is the sort of thing if you are not familiar with it

It worked.

I haven't touched my RPi for ages, so I have downloaded Kinsas' image and will give it a try myself some rainy day

Glad to hear it.

Very glad to hear that you have a RPi too. You must know much more about this little board than me. So good to seek you for advise.
I want to build a system with Raspberry Pi and a FPGA board connected via RPi's connector J1. Just like the Pluto-P board connect to PC through parallel port.
Besides, maybe I will be able to develop a HAL component to communicate between RPi and FPGA.
With this HAL component, RPi will be able to pass motion control command periodically to FPGA, Then FPGA will generate PWM to control motors....
OK , no more words to waste your time...lol....just the same method as Pluto-P board.
Do you think this plan is possible to be realized?
Thanks for your time.

Hi everyone.

I've had no time to play with X as I don't have a spare monitor, I'm still waiting for the small car monitor I've ordered from the 'bay.
I've tested X briefly on my HDMI TV and the performance is not good. Lowering the resolution helps a bit.
You can also use remote desktop (rdp), just do the following on RPi:
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-swx11 xrdp
apt-get install --no-install-recommends lxde
My original plan was to use an FPGA but the development board I ordered arrived late and I still have some leftover PIC32s so that's what I've used.I want to build a system with Raspberry Pi and a FPGA board connected via RPi's connector J1.

Someone is actually working on getting the Mesa boards to work on RPi.
Cheers!
