I read from the QNX homepages that QNX is compatible with linux. Does
this hold true also ín case of drivers? Can I use a device driver
written for linux with QNX. Are the Linux patches that I can find from
internet usable with QNX? Is the popularity of QNX related to the
compatibility with Linux?
Thank you

It is to some degree yes but at the source level not binaries.
Does this hold true also ín case of drivers?
That’s where they differ.
Can I use a device driver written for linux with QNX.
Absolutely not, and porting can involve lots of work.
Are the Linux patches that I can find from internet usable with QNX?
no
Is the popularity of QNX related to the compatibility with Linux?
In part I guess yes.
Thank you
Martin
