I don't have a scope handy, but I guess at a typical contest speed of 32 WPM,
dots may be 10 ms or so. Allowing for + or - 10% jitter, it could be a bit
too demanding for the kernel, and no doubt it is the same for any of the
Windows strains
Hence the hardware implementation (W1EL winkeyer) which may also be the best
approach for Linux. It echos back to the PC any characters sent and that
would allow real-time editing of the CW buffer.
I see Rein has a linux driver on his todo list. It would be fun to knock out
an open source version of the keyer hardware, which can't be that difficult.
I have an AVR prototyping board kicking around, and Debian comes with AVR
assemblers and loaders.
