When attempting to upgrade SVGAlib on my old machine running RTAI 0.7.
I could not compile the new version of SVGAlib. I received errors
concerning the defining of the RTHAL struct. I did not find a simple
work around for this although one may exist. I had similar problems
when trying to upgrade OSS (open sound system). My point is that
there does appear to be some interference at least for RTAI 0.7.
Has RTAI 1.3 changed in some manner that you would expect these
problems to no longer exist? The problem seems to occur when compiling other
code using some of the RTAI modified headers of the Linux
kernel?
Please set me straight if I am wrong.
Thanks,
Daniel
