Here is the relevant section from my .config:

# Processor type and features
#
CONFIG_LOLAT=y
# CONFIG_LOLAT_SYSCTL is not set

CONFIG_PREEMPT=y

As you can see, the low latency is enabled. I didn't see any point in 
enabling sysctl so I havent tried that. Perhaps that is it? The other thing 
is, I don't believe it works well with SMP which I am not using.
