Stephan,
        I am just working on the RTAI kernel at the moment under Ubuntu 8.04.
Unfortunatly the last patch was on a 2.6.20 kernel and so I have to work
out a patch for 2.6.24.
 My plan is to setup 2.6.24with a rtai kernel for a x86 and then port
the powerpc rtai kernel patches in over the top. I hope this will give
the least work as all the changes for the rtai common stuff will be in.

Jason
