Years ago I purchased a motherboard with a built in Raid controller. There were no drivers for it in mainline Linux kernel but there was code for a kernel module on the chipset vendor (Via's) website. The provided code wouldn't compile because there was a bug. People from Fedora IRC channel helped me live debug the code over irc and we found the bug and were able to get code to compile and my raid controller working. Was an awesome experience.
