Just a philosphical thought on this... many times I too have burnt days and 
sometimes weeks on a thing that WILL NOT WORK (not just on Linux).  I am left 
depressed and defeated by the experience.  But then some months later, I am 
faced with an unrelated task that happens to touch near a common area with 
the job that defeated me.  To my pleasure I realize I know quite a bit about 
that subsystem due to the earlier struggles and am able to get the new task 
to work immediately in that area.  I ponder then just how wasted the time 
spent being defeated actually was.
