The 2.6.27 series has issues and IMO should be considered broken.  I am
using a custom 2.6.28 and the 64Studio people are getting some promising
results from a 2.6.29 RC.  Time is getting tight for 9.04, but the
situation is much better than the fall when we were this far from the
8.10 release.

FYI there are patches for 2.6.29-rc8 at:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/

I will be building my own 2.6.29 this weekend, time permitting.  I could
post a .deb if you were interested.  I need a task to burn in my new
laptop :)
