What was your first kernel hack?

[Tim Cambrant <tim@cambrant.com>]

Hi, I am new to Linux kernel development and fairly novice
to programming in general, and I'm having the usual "Don't
know where to begin"-problem. I read the code to try to
understand how things work, such as the scheduler etc, but
it's all too complex for me to even make a simple but useful
kernel module or driver yet.

Now I was thinking about what you all did to get your hands
dirty. It would be nice if you shared a bit of where you
begun with kernel-coding and what you did. It doesn't
necessarily have to be code that was accepted into the
kernel, but just regular newbie-stuff that got you started.

Happy new year everyone.
