The Linux/SUSE folk are calling it 'RT'. But I am thinking of it only as a possibly more responsive OS. I do not need RT so much as I do not want unpredictable delays. If the kernel does not really need to wait for something to finish, or if it really could let something else happen when it is waiting for something to complete, making this so seems like a good thing to me. So I am only going to look at the -RT kernel in light of one application and evaluate how well it performs. Just for 'fun' at this time. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.
