The patches and questions which you've sent to LKML seem to indicate either that (a) you are incredibly sloppy, (b) you're technically not very capable, or (c) you were so enthusiastic to Make A Difference that you were sending out patches and asking questions without spending any time to think, test, and spending time doing research. Whichever it is, the worry to me is that you will consume far more of my time and other developers than the actual effort you will actually end up contributing. So the "help" ends up sucking away precious developer time and bandwidth. If you can send pointers to actual technical work you've done that might pursuade folks that you can actually contribute in a positive fashion, that might be helpful.
