It is fully RT patched. Hi Will. I thought you were going to plug 64studio before I looked at your reply. I really wanted to resolve the problem on Debian Etch, and Lenny, but will have to give 64studio a try. iso.linuxquestions.org list it, but only the x86_64 version, and only v1.0. Thankfully there are only 2 cd iso's, and shouldn't take too long on dialup. I've just been to the 64studio site, but doh, it's only available as a dvd download for 32bit, and I have a problem with dvd's, like no dvd writer. Thanks for the reply. I'll keep looking for cd iso's.
