Steve,
   I'd forgotten about that package going away. I think I've been
building the interface forever in the kernel but then not actually
using it. I haven't loaded the realtime_lsm driver in a long time.
Certainly back in the 2.6.22 past somewhere since I stopped.

   Anyway, with that change to the config the rest of my old .config
file seems to have worked. The kernel boots. I have Jack running
realtime. No xruns in the few minutes I have left with this task
tonight.

mark@lightning ~ $ uname -a
Linux lightning 2.6.24-rc2-rt1 #4 PREEMPT RT Thu Nov 15 20:33:15 PST
2007 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
mark@lightning ~ $

   Very good so far. I'll continue to run the kernel over the next few
days and see how things go. Nothing I do these days is a heavy load.
Just desktop work with a little bit of audio but I still run the
realtime kernel.

   Great work!

Cheers,
Mark
