(resent as it seems the ML is not fond of the attachment) Hi Marije, I also build an rt-kernel (2.6.29.2-rt10) for my Thinkpad T43 just a couple of weeks ago and I am very pleased to find it working well.

Well, I don't know what might be missing in your config, but I put my config here <http://www.jawebada.de/bucket/config-2.6.29.2-rt10-T43> as a reference. The only problem is my Atheros WLAN controller, which causes periodic xruns. That is why I configured a separate audio runlevel without WLAN and a minimized process list. On the other hand, this is the first time that I can use an rt-kernel for daily use as WLAN and even suspend-to-ram work flawlessly. > I also found it a bit weird that the Debian package building did not make the > initrd image. This might be related to a recent change in Debian's kernel-package (are we talking about the unstable branch?). Check /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/NEWS.Debian.gz and /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/README.gz in particular: "Note that you will have to arrange for the actual initrd creation to take place by installting a script like /usr/share/kerne-package/examples/etc/kernel/post{inst,rm}.d/yaird or, alternately, /usr/share/kerne-package/examples/etc/kernel/post{inst,rm}.d/initramfs into the correspondung directories /etc/kernel/post{inst,rm}.d, since the kernel-postinst does not arrange for the initramfs creatorto be called. You can thuse select your own; initramfs-tools or yaird."
