Back in 1996 when I was playing with linux I recall that one distro was 100% posix certified (the same cert that qnx had). Could someone point me a linux certified posix distribution please ?

I can’t tell you which one you used, but I can tell you it’s a worthless cert. For further info I’d use Google. There anyone can relive all the inane arguements over certification versus compliance.
Linux-FT , announcement : http://www.ceng.metu.edu.tr/~erol/how.to/linux.announce . But it is no more : “Linux FT – Originally intended to be the first POSIX 1003.1 compliant distribution, Linux FT is now defunct.”
