Hi,

This is the strange thing, I read them via rt_dev_recv. Sure as I am
here wrting this email every message gets read out. I send a sync, I get
a reply, the reply is read. I can see this very very clearly by
monitoring with rtcanrecv as well.

I send the sync, I recieve the position frame. Like clockwork. There
should be no overflow. I have checked all error masks, nothing.

Well yes, but at the same time it would be interesting to know why the
buffer seems to be overflowing? I am very curious. :)

Thanks.

Roland.
