 Quick intro: I'm Cory K. Lean on Ubuntu Studio. Hi :)
 So here's the pickle we're in as I understand it.
 The way the kernels are now managed in Ubuntu has changed radically in
 this release. Thus causing our kernel guy *much* more work that ever
 before. We've had to work very hard to get upstream -rt to support the
 .26 kernel but, now mainline Ubuntu has moved to 2.6.27. Which
 upstream -rt doesn't *look* to support yet. 
 No wonder, 2.6.27 doesn't even exist yet.
 Latest is .27-rc5 - and there are no -rt's for -rc's ;) 
moreover, by all accounts, 2.6.26 is totally useless for most
audio/MIDI/music work, so no distro or overlay that is concerned with
that class of user should be considering 2.6.26 either.
