realtime-lsm is not needed on recent kernels, it does the same thing as
the PAM rlimits. It just lets you run processes with realtime scheduling
and lock memory as a normal user, it will not remove the long code paths
in the kernel that block the CPU when JACK might need it. For that you
need the RT-patch.
Do you know if there are any debian rt patched kernels
available for other
debian based distros, that might work on Etch, or Lenny?
Sorry, no idea. I just download the latest kernel from
kernel.org, patch
it, and build it with the .config file from the latest Debian kernel
package (modified to turn on full preemption and threaded IRQ handlers)
using make-kpkg.
