Is it possible to use XENOMAI with the USB port? in hard or soft mod= e? We do not talk about hard and soft mode with Xenomai. If what you want to do is have a Xenomai appliation, and being able to use an USB device, then yes, it should work. If what you want to do is access an USB device from a Xenomai thread running in primary domain, then it will work if you write a driver for this device using RTDM. There is an USB4RT USB stack, but I do not know in which state it currently is. > 2. What about porting a C++ application to XENOMAI?

Which one is the recommended distro for this? You do not have much choice here: the only distributions for which we provide the necessary stuff are the .deb based one. That would be Debian or Ubuntu, maybe others, I do not know. --=20 Gilles.
