Hello All,

I want to play with home made Component for my hal Files. I have seen en read lots of it. but in te terminal command i can not locate for example the and2.ko file. i can see the and.so file. but that is a compiled file i read.

to create custom real time components see:
linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/hal/comp.html#_compiling
[edit]
Note: For the 'halcompile' tool you need to install the 'linuxcnc-dev' package from the package manager.

You don't need to know where the .ko's live
Halcompile looks after that for you. Just write your component and
sudo halcompile --install mycomp.comp

I think that you only get .ko files if you are running kernel-mode realtime, ie RTAI (basically).[1]
If you are running preempt-rt then the components are compiled into .so files.
But as has been said, you don't need to know where they are normally.
[1] It's possible to run RTAI kernel and user-space Linuxcnc. And also Xenomai is supprted in both kernel and user modes too.
I don't know if you can run preempt-rt in kernel mode, but it wouldn't surprise me.
However, the main use cases are user-space preempt-rt and kernel-mode RTAI.
