No, but I do know that you can not call most RTLinux functions from FIFO handlers. The handlers are generally running in the Linux context and are, thus, limited to those functions which would be available to Linux. The usual way of avoiding this problem is to have a periodic RTLinux thread that watches for indicator variables set by the handlers. Regards, Steve -------------------------- Stephen D.
