On the other hand, i've asked the question ate the RT kernel mailing list; one of the devolopers of the rt kernel himself tried to help me; but since i was not able to give enough debug info (i need a serial port to get the debug info and i don't have it), nothing came out of it... I'm curious to see if the new rt-kernel will fix this or not...

Rename it from 'config-2.6.31.11-rt' to '.config' in the source directory, before you build the kernel. If you run make oldconfig nothing should be asked.
