But when I 'sudo make menuconfig' in the 
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.35-22-generic directory (or the -28-generic) the 
RT_GROUP_SCHED option is enabled...

 On 11.04 kernel version 2.6.37 was not usable

Is a patch needed for that? Is it not enough to disable the RT_GROUP_SCHED 
option then compile or recompile?

Yes indeed, I've noticed that; It was such a big and nice surprise to see that 
a 2.6.37 or 2.6.38 preempt could do almost the same job as a realtime kernel 
(at least for what I do)
