Maybe.  If you do and you're using the realtime LSM, you're going to
need the latest (beta) version to handle some changes to the 2.6.6
capabilities structure...

  http://www.joq.us/realtime/realtime-lsm-0.1.1.tar.gz

Note that the 2.6.6 kernel makefiles have changed, so recheck the
INSTALL instructions.  It looks like you now need to run the LSM's
`make install' first, then the kernel's `make modules_install'.  This
is actually an improvement, you no longer need write access to the
kernel build tree to build realtime-lsm (AFAICT).

I'll be releasing realtime-lsm-0.1.1 via SourceForge shortly (after it
passes a few more tests).  Anyone who wants to beta test it before
then, please let me know your results.
