I've waited this many months to finally get this far, another week is no problem :D Would you be able to share any patches and kernconfs you're working from so I have a frame of reference? My own dev skills are certainly nowhere near yours, but I'd like to at least read through the code you've applied to get us this far and maybe even learn something new along the way.help
