Oh frazelsnarf! That explains why I have not seen RTLinux embeded in the
standard kernal. I never could understand why. You know, someone
should write a kernal patch that does handels the real time determinism
embeded in the kernel and be done with it... THis pisses me off enough
that I'm just about willing to help (not that I do not already have
enough to do)...
