Only back to 2.6.9. Let me tell, you this really difficult. I've already spent some time on it and it is hard work. If I was able to get time to complete the port then you would need to be prepared to help debug errors introduced in the transcription. There are bound to be some as I don't have 2.6.5 based machines for testing.
