Re: [Xenomai-help] real-time ethernet

[Roland Tollenaar <rwatollenaar@domain.hid>]

Hi,

Thanks. I think I will stick to CAN. I hope I achieve the speed.

Could you possibly look at my tsc issue and give your opinion please? I 
am actually desperately waiting for someone to comment on that and 
obviously hoping that there are no severe problems to be expected if I 
run the user part built with;

--disable-tsc

and the kernel in 486 processor family.


Regards,

Roland.
