Re: [LAU] RT patch not needed for new kernels (?)

i haven't had any real problems with 2.6.26 RT patches, but i don't use my midi gear in linux (waiting for ardour 3 branch to mature a bit more first). is there any reason the 2.6.26 patch hasn't been ported forward to 2.6.27? are the changes that prominent that the patch is too difficult to port? i remember the last few releases (24, 25 and 26) didn't take too long before a (albeit preliminary) patch was available, but i have found nothing at all for 27. i'd like to update this machine to intrepid but i want to make sure i'm not going backwards in terms of rt support (i know i can use the older kernel i'm using now, but it kinda defeats the purpose of upgrading then). i noticed there is a 2.6.27-rt package in intrepid actually, what is this if the rt patches aren't available yet? sorry to ramble porl 2008/11/27 <torbenh(a)gmx.de>de>: -- i am kurious oranj!
