I haven't compiled kernels for some time, but I have a patch attached.
Although the directory reads linux-2.6.28, it was first patched with
patch-2.6.29-rc7.bz2
This patch adds support for Mobile Action GT100/GT200 (i-gotU) usb devices.

As I am on a debian system, I used make-kpkg to build a installable .deb
kernel package. That took some time..
So, yes I can try kernel patches, and I have some time to tinker.
