Hey !
Sorry for bothering again, but I just saw the following 2 posts on the
mailing list:
-------
Dell laptop with i7 processors, multicore
Typical latency was around 5 usec, but at least once per second had a
long pass of approximately 700 usec. Tried the xenomai SMI work around with
no noticable change in results.

I am using the same processor. Its working fine.

...and I am wondering whether someone could report a laptop setup
(model?) that uses an i7 CPU and that does not suffer from "huge"
latency spikes ?
THANKS so much,
Peter

Subject: Xenomai on laptops
To: [email protected]
Hello !
I am looking into buying a laptop to run Xenomai (and RTnet) and I am
having trouble choosing the appropriate setup.
The plan is to run xenomai on the laptop and use rtnet to communicate
to some controller boards in real-time. I have done this with a
desktop computer and it worked just fine, however, now I need to run
the same thing on a portable device.
I might have to use a RTnet compliant PCMCIA card (if such a thing
exists) because most (Dell) laptops do not have rtnet compliant NICs
(do they?). It would be great to get advice on which gigabit PCMCIA
ethernet card works with Xenomai (and RTnet). Also, are there any
issues with i7 CPUs reported ?
I hope this question is not off topic.
THANKS for any help,
Peter
