Hi Greg
I don't seem to have the exact version number handy right
now. I'm going through a web crisis that will take a few more
days to sort out. This high speed microwave stuff is nice
compared to dialup but it does increase the issues by a
factor of xx at least.
Any of the mini-ITX boards that use the via unichrome
driver on board seem to play fairly well with the real time
kernel. I do prefer the via processor because of the very low
power required to run them. I go into the bios and turn off
a bunch of stuff like legacy USB and audio. I also turn on
boot on power so that I only have to jumper it once to power
up.
I'll try to find a link to the specific board I've had good
success with and post it.
I like the Mini-ITX on a shelf inside a NEMA rated enclosure a
lot for shop installations I also add one of the new snap in
micro power supplies and it makes a fantastic compact
arrangement with very little heat.

Not a bad idea. I have a PC that I would like to put through the
bandsaw! John nice blog.
Dave, do you know where I could find out which Jetway board that Ray may
have used? I did a quick search but I didn't find anything.
Thanks,
Greg
