Thank you Tom but I've the 99% of my work based on the 1.2.13 kernel (that was the latest 'stable' at the moment of starting my work :( ). Only a little question, just another example, please.. I'm seeing a 'light' but It's not enough for me :), some questions:
- Kernel puts many tasks in this queues under certain conditions, that's ok? What kind of tasks? tq_immediate is an intend to make 'real time' beliving to linux?...
Maybe they seem silly questions for you but they're important for me.
Best regards. Jose.
