Hi all,):P

Thought I would let you all know of a project I am working on currently, which is atm in testing phase (private), but will soon be expanded to encompass public testing

This kernel is currently being built from Vanilla sources (3.8.0-rc2) straight from Linus Torvalds github (who said living on the edge wasn't fun :D)

Build #3 is currently in progress. Im focusing on Intel based systems atm, but will be doing one for those of us with AMD based processors

A base idea of what this laptop is doing for me atm, from a full battery, idle testing for about 10-15mins to discover a rough time i will have on battery, I am exceeding 7+hrs on my ultrabook. Note I havent started much on extreme powersaving techniques, but its a start :p

For those of you who wish to partake in a private test with me (max 5 ppl atm) please send me a pm and I will let you all know the moment the next working build is ready
