If you have problems getting your driver to mainline, the lists are there to help. Of course, this implies working with a recent kernel (which also answers your initial question a bit). Most people don't want to supprt old kernels like 2.6.2x in their freetime. You can get commercial support for such tasks (be it my employer or other consultants on this list). > and discussions about them, kinda dedicated to active developers.

As all people are busy by default, getting no response is not that exceptional. If you need a fast response, you should consider commercial support.
