Wow, I love that they provide a Debian package of the kernel, and the headers, and the sources!  And it's SMP too.

Now *that* is the way it should be done.

Thanks Musix!

However, I notice that rtirq does *not* work with this kernel anymore. 

And yes, I have the 20070101-19 version, which appears to be the latest one.

In fact, running /etc/init.d/rtirq status shows just:
 PID CLS RTPRIO  NI PRI %CPU STAT COMMAND	
    3 TS       -  19   4  0.0 SN   ksoftirqd/0	
    6 TS       -  19   5  0.0 SN   ksoftirqd/1	


And with no set of ps options on this kernel (i.e.  ps -eLf, can I find the threads for IRQ handlers for things like firewire or the various USB interrupts at all.
