hi all,

  there were a few small threads about rt-networking with
  rtlinux in this mailing list in the past. nevertheless,
  i would be happy if s/o could clarify things a little or
  give some insightful comments:

  1. as far as i understand, it is not possible to use
     the standard linux network drivers (loaded e.g. as
     a kernel module ne2000.o) by a thread running in
     rtlinux.
     it is thus necessary to port the rsp. driver into
     rtlinux.

  2. the linux driver code is certainly available. if
     1. is true, which changes do i presumably have to
     make in order to use it in rtlinux ?
     will i have standard socket communication with
     the device ?
     (the normal
      if (-1!=(foo=socket(AF_INET,SOCK_DGRAM,0))) {...} calls?)

  thank you in advance,

j. rieling
