things to do additionally
------------------------------------------------------------------------------


enable realtime clock
----------------------

for the realtime clock to work, you've got to load these modules:
  modprobe rtc_core
  modprobe rtc_cmos

you should then have a device
  /dev/rtc0

then change the max-user-frequency of rtc (default is only 64):
  echo 2048 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/max_user_freq

test:
  cat /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/max_user_freq


and maybe of hpet as well (?)
  echo 2048 > /proc/sys/dev/hpet/max-user-freq
(Is hpet emulated by rtc ?)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------



set realtime priorities
-----------------------

install scheduling tools (/usr/bin/chrt)
  apt-get install schedutils
or
  apt-get install schedtool


install,setup and run the rtirq script by Rui Nuno Capela
