Re: Running simultaneously two versions of streams

Cannot be done in a single kernel image.  The two copies of LiS, even if 
named differently, will collide on registrations with the Linux kernel, not 
the least of which is that they will both export the same list of 
symbols.  I think that you will have to persuade your vendors to both 
upgrade to LiS-2.18 (soon, when it is released) so that you can run both 
their driver sets under a single LiS.

Maybe if you ran VMware and installed them in two kernel images you could 
get them to run "simultaneously" but then there would be some art involved 
in your application level code to talk to both copies.
