What functions do you want added? I'm not sure what I want added, if anything... I was just curious to know how it worked. I have no experience with kernel coding, but this seemed like as good a reason to learn as anything. > How much experience do you have kernel coding?

We can always use I don't doubt that, but it is good to learn these things... I'm in my last semester of a computer science degree and, while I'm in the habit of studying, I figured I might as well learn about some of this stuff. > extra hands though so if you're willin to put in the work it will be > nice having you on board. I also recommend you get on the reflector > if that is the case. If you don't know about the reflector, then I I know about the reflecter, and I'm pleased to know about others using SpeakFreely. Some friends and I run a reflecter on fox.sector14.net:2074 for our own enjoyment. Its a great tool, but the university just put in nat to the dorms so I've been cut off from SpeakFreely until I can set up a VPN to the outside or something else. I tried using SSH port forwarding, but that didn't work so now I'm going to try a pptp connection to a friends box to get a clear shot out the firewall. I just have to wait for him to set up his machine to do it. Thanks again and I'm sure that after I've learned a little more about how the kernel is put together, I'll probably be able to be of some help to you. Chris
