Because of time sharing issue I haven't get to the end but a tutorial will be great. The question I've asked me during my several tries is where can I be useful (which topics, what I'm confident enough in to play with...). Looking in drivers/staging wasn't any help in my case and making kernel janitor is useful but not very well viewed as I've heard. So I think that digging further in your tutorial on several ways to start kernel hacking may be interesting. > Current format/content: the tutorial will attempt to bridge the gap in > the learning process between the 'first patch' page on kernelnewbies.org > wiki and being 'comfortable' patching the kernel via LKML.
