RT-Linux is pretty much a dead project from what activity I have seen. The last patch I saw was for a very early 2.6 series kernel and possibly experimental. A quick look at the WindRiver overview suggests that they use a 2.6.14 kernel, but I doubt anyone (here) uses it. > Are there maybe some RT-Linux systems in the EMC2 build farm? There was a 2.2.x series kernel patched with a very old RT-Linux version, but your driver(s) won't compile on anything other than 2.6.xx. > Does anyone run EMC2 on RT-Linux? RT-Linux support is a dead end, rtapi for RT-Linux does little more than add to the general bit rot. --- Paul. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
