Hi Ankit, what are the real time requirements of your application? You may try the RT-Preempt kernel and have a look if it fulfil the real time requirements. It is much easier to develop real time software with it, as with Xenomai or RTAI. We use the 3.2er Debian RT-Preempt Kernel from the Debian repository in Ubuntu 12.04 to control a 4 to 6 DoF robot arm with joint elasticity in combination with Orocos to build up the real time control and ROS for network communication between different parts of our software, and it works well.
