Realtime-lsm is the most usefull patch in my situation. I don't like running

the 2.4 kernel in Mandrake yet but it still enables me to record in Ardour,
run jack at 512 x 2 as a user on my Delta1010LT with FX monitoring and is low
enough latency that I can play a guitar through it live running Ardour and
LADSPA fx like delays, reverbs and chorus' without the unsuspecting knowing.
The only issue I find is I have to let my MDK 10 box catch up after I start
jack then ardour other wise Ardour drops the jack pipe. Other than that it's
fine.

Exactly, but realtime-lsm has not changed in a long time, it's very
simple (~200 lines of code), has no known bugs, and many people find it
useful. So it's a perfect candidate to include in the kernel.
I have already received an OK from the maintainer, as soon as I get a
patch from him I will be posting it to LKML.

Yes, except that the realtime-lsm precompiled binary is not updated
on Sid each time the kernel is. The only way to keep it current is to
compile it yourself. Compiles quickly and reliably--just remember to
copy the .ko to the correct place and then reboot.
This is why we want realtime-lsm to be part of the kernel, because it
_would_ automatically get upgraded when you upgraded your kernel.
