Hi John,

thanks to you and the LinuxCNC community at large for working on this.
Is there any problem if we modify the page about Debian on Xenomai wiki
to point to this page?

We will also try and address the issues which were identified since you
started working on this, namely:
- allowing enabling the SMI workaround without kernel re-compilation
- allow building Xenomai user-space support with _FORTIY_SOURCE
- find the origin of the latency issue with i915 and opengl
- the harcoded 80 in the tsc test

Regards.
