[etherlab-users] verified linux distro + kernel + RTAI + etherlab version

[Bilko AS, Oguz Dilmac]

Dear Jakub,

Thank you for your reply. I'll try 14.04.

The etherlab master 1.5.2 tar.bz2 file on the etherlab web site doesn't 
have drivers for kernels higher than 3.4. But you are using kernel 3.13. 
So I understand that you are using the development version by downlading 
"hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/etherlabmaster/code ethercat-hg". Am I 
right?

Best regards,
Oguz.
