    Sorry to say that but, do you really want to use rtlinux? I mean, linux is not real time at all, it is too big (about 1Mb) and rtlinux is just a true RTOS running linux as it lowest priority thread. So, if you want to use some linux service, it is goint to be executed in the lowest priority level. At the end what you win?

    I will stand using a true RTOS link=www.rtmes.com .
