Based on the number of "wtf ... 10mS granularity??" posts, I'd say HRT
on the TS-7800 would be worthwhile. Is it available for any of the
other orion boards in the mainline kernel?
Is there hope of getting TS sd module working with a mainline kernel?
Great work, btw, getting TS-7800 support accepted upstream. A number
of hoops to jump through, but most looked worthwhile.
