Realtime Tux!

Real-Time Linux Thesis

Geeky information about the hardware used... >:)

This information is far from true anymore! As of now we are using a wide range of computers testing all of the most popular realtime linuces. KURT, RTAI, RED and RT Linux are (almost) all running on everything from old 486:s to Pentium and PII:s.

Daniel has dismounted the system below, but it was our first RTLinux v1.3 system we had running and we are still at least somewhat proud of it! :-)
