Before asking world wide I may soon have a VXI based instrument to play with. Anyone locally have experience with running Linux on a VXI CPU, and or know what choices are there for using Linux vs the dreaded Windoz ?
CPUs that are affordable are x86, 68000, and Sparc based. The VXI interface/API would be the show stopper. My interest would be replace having to use GPIB via a GPIB/VXI bridge with Ethernet. For those asking what the heck VIX is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VXI -pete PS anyone have a VXI C chassis or CPU they want to sell/trade/dispose ? _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
