Philippe,

Thanks for your patient help.  I did what you asked and it works fine 
for the user side.

The kernel side is what is screwed up.  I am using the ELDK 3.1 from the 
DENX CD and when I try applying the Adeos patch, it fails in several 
places.  I ended up applying the patch by hand and I only had a few 
places where I was scratching my head as to where to apply the changes 
so that might be what I screwed up.  Is the 
xenomai-2.1.0/ksrc/arch/powerpc/patches/adeos-ipipe-2.4.25-ppc-denx-1.0-03.patch 
supposed to apply to the develop tree for ELDK 3.1 instead??  I couldn't 
make heads or tails of the numbering scheme used on the patch wrt the 
"denx-1.0-03" part. 

I'm so close...and I really want to figure this out.
