I think the answer is: 4) He wants to run EMC, but he prefers FC3 to Ubuntu, and he may prefer RTLinux to RTAI. EMC2 is Free software, and we don't intend to force anyone to run a particular distribution. But we can only provide pre-patched kernels and detailed support for a limited number of platforms. When it comes to patching specific kernels/distros, we are not the best source of information. Our RTOS compatibility layer, RTAPI was designed to work with both RTAI and RTLinux. But the last version of RTLinux that it was tested with is quite old, and there are no guarantees. (RTLinux has gone commercial, and their GPL branch is languishing - that is the main reason most of use use RTAI instead.) Patches for GPL RTLinux will be gratefully accepted. Support for commercial RTLinux isn't very high on the priority list. Regards, John Kasunich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
