Hello Andrew,

thanks! If someone mentors me I could try... I have experience with C 
programming, esp. in the embedded world, but (almost) no experience with 
the Linux kernel development.
But regression tests etc. can be conducted by me - on 32 and 64 bit 
machines. The oldest being a P120, the newest the mentioned X61 with its 
C2D CPU.

Best regards
Michael
