That's not the problem...
the problem is that I don't have any other hardware than my own to test on,
not to mention all different architectures it need to work on...

and some of the patches are considered more "experimental" than standard
experimental codes/patches....

And Mandrake has to officially support their own kernels, so they have to
be sure that it works, without breaking some systems..

So if there is some patches you need that is in my kernels, and not in 
Mandrake kernels, you just have to hope that they get accepted and verified
by mandrake kernel team, or use my kernel...
