welcome, richard!
by Christopher Blizzard
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*
How cool! My grandfather’s name was Richard Hughes.
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.
There’s a guy named “blizzard” who already used te expression, apparently. :)
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!
