If you want to contribute to the development and extention of Linux, and
you are a self-professed non-programmer, you need to find a programmer (or
programmers) who will work with you to develop your additions.  Like an
architect working with a construction engineer to put up a building.  This
does not mean you can't use Linux, you just will have to work as part of a
team to extend Linux.
