Linux drivers for NI-CAN

[EdDickens]

Are there any, or does NI plan any Linux drivers for NI-CAN?

I want to setup a Linux box and compare performance against a Windows box specifically with CAN and DAQ.

Thanks

NI does not currently have a Linux driver for NI-CAN, however, we can provide a DDK (Driver Development Kit) that enables someone to write their own NI-CAN driver for whatever platform they like.

That's what I was afraid of. Where can I get the DDK then.
