Re: rtlinux




Hi Peter

Rtlinux has been a commercial venture for a long while - Since the release of 
rtlinux-3.0 there has been an additional (and somewhat dubious IMO) patent 
claim. The software license conflicts with the linux kernel license and has 
been well reported on some of the news channels.

If you want to move away from rtlinux, there is rtai from 
http://www.aero.polimi.it/projects/rtai/ which has the advantage of the 
latest kernels being supported - Currently 2.4.9.

Regards, Paul.
