Hi,
  I'm sorry that the problems continue for you, but at least you have
the kernel booting now. That is good.

  Also, realtime-lsm is COMPLETELY compatible with 2.6.17-rtX. I'm
using it right now.

QUESTION: Did you remember to re-emerge it with your new kernel?

QUESTION: Did you remember to change the /usr/src/linux link to point
at the new kernel source tree?

  I can promise you that realtime-lsm works for me everyday on -rt kernels.

Hope this helps,
Mark
