Assume you should use Debian/Ubuntu or Arch Linux I can help you to
build a kernel-rt package. As long as RT isn't mentioned in the uname -a
string, you don't run a kernel-rt. Did you copy the original config of
your installed distros's kernel, run make oldconfig and cared about
questions regarding RT?
Please consider to ask such a question at
http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user instead of this
list.
