I just wanted to try some things with an rt-kernel (I also read somewhere that I can configure the rt-kernel tickless?), but I cannot find the rt-sources.
layman doesn't know about the pro-audio overlay (anymore)?!

Where has it gone? / where kan I get an up-to-date rt-sources (conveniently)?

Cheers

You'll need the -k switch for layman, or set nocheck : yes in /etc/layman/layman.cfg

Well, your problem has already been solved, but to be honest,if you really
want an "up2date" rt-kernel, you should better get the rt-patch from its origin url
-> http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/
and patch the vanilla sources yourself.

That overlay seems to be slightly outdated.

We definately need a bump to .23.1-rt5, but not too outdated ;)
Code:
$ eix -s rt-sources
* sys-kernel/rt-sources [1]
     Available versions:  2.6.16-r29 (~)2.6.19-r15 (~)2.6.20-r5 (~)2.6.20-r8 (~)2.6.21-r1 (~)2.6.21-r9 (~)2.6.21.4-r12 (~)2.6.21.5-r20 (~)2.6.22.1-r9 (~)2.6.23-r1 {fbsplash realtime-lsm uvesafb vesafb-tng}
     Description:         Ingo Molnars realtime patch applied on vanilla

[1] "proaudio" /home/tom/cvs/proaudio/trunk/overlays/proaudio


EDIT: now bumped to 2.6.23.1-rt5

Of course, being outdated is very relative,
but that depends from the point of view ;)

I had some strange hard freezes under -rt1 and i would
advise everybody to use the newest patch set (-rt5), where
these things automagically went away (at least on my server).

boris :)

PS: Didn't mean to be offensive, didn't even know
someone created a realtime-overlay (great stuff of course!) ;)

Edit came in sync with your last comment :)
But, to be honest, I also never use ebuilds for my kernel-sources. I prefer patching them myself.

Nad, that overlay has a bit more pro-audio stuff than just rt-sources. Watch out!
