[linux-audio-user] Realtiem kernel.

[Mark Knecht]

Hi Brad,
   Not exactly. The link is the leading edge kernel which at this time
is base don a release candidate. I often build them for testing but
I'm currently having trouble with the realtime-lsm package with
2.6.19_rc6 so I have run them.

   Underneath that directory there is repository of all the older ones
goign back to 2.6.13 I think. I'm currently running 2.6.18-rt7 from
the Gentoo proaudio overlay which checks all the stuff out for me and
patches it before I build it:
