Add this to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb ftp://musix.ourproject.org/pub/musix/deb/ ./

After apt-get update, you will see various 2.6.21 rt patched kernels, modules

This repository is slow mollasis, however.

Thanks for that David. Slow is no problemo, as I'm on dialup.

With the that's been offered, I'll get realtime working on Etch, and
Lenny, one way or the other.
