I've just successfully installed 2.6.38-5-lowlatency kernel following
the instructions here:

http://longspine.com/how-to/real-time-kernel-on-ubuntu-10-10-maverick-meerkat/

I guess it would work on any ubuntu 10.10 based OS. Certainly works
on Linux Mint 10 KDE (amd64) in my case. My 'uname -a' now shows:

Linux asus 2.6.38-5-lowlatency #32~ppa1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT
Wed Feb 23 11:08:30 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

It certainly satisfies Rosegarden's timer requirement.

There are some further steps needed if you have proprietary graphics
drivers, as the kernel needs re-compiling for the module. Similar if
you use VirtualBox, but both problems were easy enough to put right.

I did need to boot the new kernel in recovery mode and mess with
/etc/X11/xorg.conf to fix my nVidia driver problem though...

I'd be happy to help anyone who wants to try it, but if you follow
Mr Poomk's instructions exactly, it should just work.

Many thanks for Don Juan. Compiled from source yesterday and working fine.
