You could do a few things, like write a driver for my CD-ROM, it is a
Funai. I hear the networking section could use a working on as well as
SMP interrupts.

You could go through and create drivers for devices not currently
supported. Like IBM Apteva's sound card. It would be nice to somehow
make a driver that allows the mpeg library's use a mpeg chip if you have
one on the computer. Possibly scsi drivers. Maybe even impliment winRPI
modem protocal (the modem manufacturers leave the
compression/decompression chips off the modem and make the processor do
extra stuff).

Need any more ideas?
