RE: Help with new error - it went away???



I am using rtlinux 3.0 on RH 7.1.

Are any of the other real-time implementations any better?  My understanding
is that Linus isn't exactly behind the RTLinux effort.  I am not sure if
this is political, technical or economic but if there is a better real-time
kernel perhaps that would be one to try.  I think I recall seeing reference
to support by EMC for another real-time kernel but don't recall which one
that was.
