[Wiltshire] DAQ // Comedi under Linux

[Simon Iremonger]

Has anybody out there had any success with any forms of DAQ
   modules, ADC into linux (e.g.. via comedi driver in kernel)?

I want to make accurate measurements/graphs of modulation from
   different sorts of light using a photodiode and computer,
   preferably from portable pc without full-size-PCI!

I was just wondering if anybody has done this!

I'ts possible to get things like the 'linux-usb-daq', I just
   wondered if anybody had succeeded with getting cheap cards
   from anywhere and running xoscope on linux etc.


Thanks,
