Some email software does not put who posted every time, relax, it really
isn't that big of a deal.


realtime isnt a module, its a big kernel patch. my experience (not on ia32)

I have been compiling kernels since the 2.4 series myself.  All of the
2.6series, as the rt patch became availiable I compiled with it, and
have had
extremely good results.  The only times any of the above happened was
because of my own stupidity, I have never had it not compile.  Any time it
didn't boot was because of my own fault. Never had it freeze the boot
sequence, and any freezes I experienced afterwards(extremely few) I have
other suspects well in line before the patch.
