Actually it depends. At the moment, as far as I know, RTDM drivers are 
not able to communicate to POSIX written programs in every way, like it 
does with programs written using the native API. So, if there is any 
plan to write real-time driver (and RTDM really makes this process much 
easier), so I would recommend using the native API instead. Unless 
Xenomai is going to support better intercommunication between different 
skins, if it is possible, or if someone will take the effort to maintain 
a POSIX version of RTDM...

Rodrigo.
