Hi Ingo,
Since the Gentoo Pro-Audio overlay guys were so quick to get
2.6.17-rc6-rt1 into an ebuild I downloaded and built the kernel this
evening using that method.
1) The kernel did boot on my AMD64 machine.
2) gdm segfaulted so I couldn't run X.
3) Basic functionality was available in a console window.
I expect the gdm problem is on my end. Maybe it's a VGA driver
issue or something like that? I'll check that out tomorrow.
Anyway, it does boot so that's a start.
Cheers,
Mark

the biggest change was the port to 2.6.17-rc6, and the moving to John's
latest and greatest GTOD queue. Most of the porting was done by Thomas
Gleixner (thanks Thomas!). We also picked up the freshest genirq queue
from -mm and the freshest PI-futex patchset. There are also lots of ARM
fixups and enhancements from Deepak Saxena and Daniel Walker.
if we accidentally dropped some fix in the process then please complain.
x86 and x86_64 build and boot, but some initial rough edges are to be
expected. Deepak, your ARM-GTOD patches are included but not tested yet.
to build a 2.6.17-rc6-rt1 tree, the following patches should be applied:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/patch-2.6.17-rc6.bz2
http://redhat.com/~mingo/realtime-preempt/patch-2.6.17-rc6-rt1
