Ardhan, > Is there special care when using PREEMPT_RT patch in X/GTK+ > applications? [..] In general, no other care than with any other RT application. Do you wish the GUI to immediately and smoothly reflect important states of your control application? In this case, you should consider that the display only changes, if both the GTK+ application and the X server react in time. For this purpose, it is sometimes recommended to set the priority of the X server a little less than that of the control application. Never assign the highest priority of the system to the X server, since this may completely block the server. A priority of < 49, however, is normally safe.
