Software: New Linux Driver Version 3.3.0

Meinberg officially released their newest version of the Linux driver for Meinberg bus level products. This includes all Meinberg slot cards (for ISA, PCI and PCI Express Bus) as well as their USB products.

The new driver version not only includes a number of bug fixes and improvements regarding the build process for newer kernel versions (2.6.30). A couple of additional functions for the mbgstatus utility and optimizations for using the software on SELINUX-enabled systems are also mentioned in the changelog on Meinbergs Driver Download page.

This release adds extended support for the new Meinberg PTP270PEX PCI Express slot card. This brand new product can synchronize with a PTP/IEEE 1588 grandmaster clock and offers the same level of accuracy and performance as a GPS synchronized reference.

The new driver can be downloaded from the Meinberg Driver Download webpage.
