welcome, richard!

May 20, 2007 in Fedora, GNOME, Red Hat | 5 comments

The ever wonderful Richard Hughes is joining Red Hat as an intern for the summer. He’s only been here for a few days but he’s already totally rocking our suspend/resume infrastructure for Fedora 7 and fixing kernel problems on the x60 he has.

I’m looking forward to the day I can upgrade from the old x31 that I’m still using. Richard, just let me know when everything on that x60 works out of the box and I’ll try to get a celebratory purchase order. (I wonder if anyone in the history of the world has ever used the phrase “celebratory purchase order“. Doesn’t appear so.)

    The x60 should be fine since I fixed it up a few weeks back. Unless some schmo has regressed it already. *sharpens axe*

    Thanks! Everyone has made me feel very welcome, and I hope I can do some good stuff here. Give me a couple of weeks and everything X60 should be WOOTB.

    Great work! On FC6 the resume stuff was nog working well on my laptop. But it seems my laptop (dell 610) is perfectly supported in FC7!
