This is my first bout into the kernel, and I'm still coming up to speed.
I'm sure that a lot of the problems that I've got on the slab at the
moment could be easily tracked down by a seasoned kernel hacker, but
alas that's not me at the moment :(.  My motivation for working on the
usb stack was originally to get my M505 palm syncing properly over
USB... still a way to go.

That's a good idea.  I'll do it.  What's a good date to go back to?
I'm using a 2002-03-17 kernel to good effect.  Is that a good date
for everybody else?
