What's wrong with it? People keep making these vague statements that the -rt kernel is unstable, but I haven't seen any details. Lee
While I don't think this is the venue to report this stuff since you asked, and since you are a person who helps fix things: ) I had these messages in dmesg (already sent to LKML) EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.

The machine is down hard and would not even respond to ssh login attempts. I was using the ati-driver-8.28.8 driver which is most likely the culprit. I was not motivated enough though to muck around with my xorg.config files to try the kernel's radeon driver. I hope to look at that this weekend. If the radeon driver crashes I will send that info on to the LKML. (And I suppose here since you want to see it!) ;-) I am currently back to running 2.6.17-rt5. Cheers, Mark
