I haven't shipped the Beagle Board to you yet (general procrastination/laziness/distractions, etc.). Should I send it to this other guy instead? It sounds like, from this: http://mail.rtai.org/pipermail/rtai/2009-August/021925.html that their main holdup is hardware to work with. > Another is to use the just-developed rt-linux patch from France to the > 2.6.29 kernel.

If so, it might be a quicker way to go, assuming the rtlib support for rtlinux still works.
