Re: Where is the NI M-Series Linux driver/programming info?!?!?!?!

Hi!

Well... ;-) Just combine one USBDUXfast with a USBDUX and you've got 
what you need.

The USBDUXfast is much faster than 1Ms but that's what I manage 
definitely here on my crappy acer laptop (which is my worst case 
scenario). Goes up to 3Ms.

We have just put it on the web page but we haven't advertised it too much.
