Help with compiling 2.6.24-rt

[Alex Gonzalez <langabe@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Please redirect me if this is not the correct list for this question.

I am trying to compile a 2.6.24 kernel with rt patches.

I had assumed that I could find an rt patch to match
linux-2.6.24_2.6.24.orig.tar.gz, apply the patch, and then apply
linux-patch-debian-2.6.24_2.6.24-6~etchnhalf.7_all.deb to it.

Could someone be kind enough to tell me what vanilla kernel version is
linux-2.6.24_2.6.24.orig.tar.gz so that I can find a matching rt
patch?

Some details:

RT patches from: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/older/
Debian original source from:
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-2.6.24/
Debian patches from: http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-2.6.24/

Thanks in advance,
Alex
