Graphics Libraries for FreeRTOS

Hi!

I am trying to evaluate RTOSes with graphics library support. Some questions:

Is there a graphics library available which can work with FreeRTOS?

Is it a good idea to use FreeRTOS in a system which has a graphics application running?

Is there any other RTOS that you would recommend for graphics? Our system has around 100KB of Flash to spare. RAM is around 16KB.

thanks and regards

I am using FreeRTOS together with a comercial graphics library, from Ramtex (http://www.ramtex.dk/). Works fine, was not expensive, and has a beautiful simulator. I develop UI software in GCC (and Eclipse) under windows, run it with the simulator, and it can then be easily moved to target (AT91SAM7S256).
I have no exact figures of footprint, but it is much less than the limits you say.

Thanks Jokke. I will take a look at Ramtex.
