I would be interested in your USB Gecko. I haven't gotten involved in the Linux-on-vWii project yet, but I do have an interest in helping out with this. Just to give my credentials, I'm an experienced C, C++, and assembly programmer (x86 and PowerPC). I've done work on reverse engineering for Super Mario Galaxy 2 (and was able to bring back the Red Star and Ice Flower), and I also have experience in OS development.
