Hi, all,
The company for whom i am working for has the written
permission from the author to goahead with porting the

Well, Jalaj, there is something I think, and RedHat can help me to better
understand if wrong.
If you plan to port a GPL driver to a non free (and open) OS, you may run in
trouble, that's rig

That the issue. You may have problems if the driver is GPL and
the OS isn't. Is QNX GPL? Do you plan to distribute the driver

First, this is the work list to ask about QNX this is Red-Hat Development.
Second, that was not what Thomas Dodd meant;
You can not take the GPL'ed PCI device driver and put it into QNX since QNX

link it with a non GPL OS. This just came
HI,

platform. How to estimate the time duration of this
