It's easy to get mixed up about all this stuff.  That's why getting
good realtime support in the base kernel is such good news.

I just built 2.6.10 with the realtime-lsm built in (the capability LSM
is *not* included).  It seems to work fine at -p64.  No xruns so far
(under light load).  This is really wonderful.  Ingo, Andrew, Linus
and all the other kernel developers can be really proud of this
release.

Our existing realtime-lsm kernel patch works unchanged with this
kernel (I just made a link to it with a shorter name)...

We're hoping to get this included in 2.6.11.
