Ok I can do that :). I also discovered that there is a kernel source
available kernel-rt. You only see it when you search for it in zypper
(in yast2 it's invisible).

I currently have the 2.6.22.9-0.4 kernel-source version installed, how
do I install the 2.6.22.5-31 kernel-source next to it?

# zypper search kernel
