Hi Steve, I haven't applied any additional patches to the stock MV 2.6.10 release
[r...@flir ~]# cat /proc/version Linux version 2.6.10_mvl401-davinci_evm-PSP_01_30_00_082 (gcc version 3.4.3 (MontaVista 3.4.3-25.0.104.0600975 2006-07-06)) #1 Fri Oct 16 10:29:49 PDT 2009 I noticed a CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT patch on the linux wiki...is that what you're referring to? How can I start using the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT patch? Please see the RT PREEMPT HOWTO for a detailed description. The short version is to get the latest -rt patch from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/, then get the related vanilla kernel from http://kernel.org, apply the patch to the kernel, configure, and compile the kernel. Has this patch been successfully applied to MVs Davinci 2.6.10? From http://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_Patch#Platforms_Te sted_and_in_Use_with_CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT It looks like it has been applied to OMAP 5912 and DM6446 Davinci, but it does mention 2.6.23rt specifically...

DM6467 HRT was not working correct. There was a patch that fixed the problem.
