RTLinux/GPL (www.rtlinux-gpl.org) currently does not support PPC though
we do have the first ports for PPC 440 and 405 of XtratuM in testing it
will be some time before RTLinux is fully available in a stable release.
So atleast for now xenomai is your best bet for a free-software real-time
extension. If you are interested in testing early releases let me know
though.

thx!
