Yes, NI-DAQ is the National Instruments developed driver used to control National Instrument cards in Windows and Mac operating systems. For Linux, National Instruments plug-in data acquistion products use the drivers developed by the Comedi project. For more information on this topic refer to http

I believe Rolf means that the NI-DAQ driver that is being used on your Windows machine is not going to be the same as your Linux machine. NI-DAQ VIs on a Windows machine will be making a call to a dll which would not be available on your Linux machine. Anything in your VI that is referencing Window

Thank you for the clarification. - I was confused by Rolf's message because I was assuming that, although they are not the same, the DAQ drivers for Windows or for Linux are functionnally equivalent, and this should be pretty much transparent to an end-user like me. - I am currently using ActiveX

But there is some sort of drivers for Linux, whatever their name is, so that an NI card can work under Linux, right? Am I right assuming that NI-DAQ refer to the drivers, or does NI-DAQ include something else ? Philippe

Hi I am using LabView 7 Express with Windows XP. I am considering porting my VIs to Linux (RedHat 7.3). I would be interested in knowing others' opinions regarding the reliability of LabView for Linux, and portability of the VIs. Can I expect the Linux version to yield similar performances? T
