Who is Hmh?

I am a Debian Developer for quite a few years now, and the current maintainer of ibm-acpi/thinkpad-acpi, aka "ThinkPad ACPI Extras" Linux kernel driver for ThinkPad laptops.

I am also involved with the tp_smapi and HDAPS Linux drivers, as a beta-tester and power-user. I don't list myself as a developer for those projects because I have never contributed a single line of code to them, just suggestions and bug reports ;-)

My ThinkPads

I own just a simple T43 model 2687-DDU. It is a great machine: a very solid ThinkPad, with its own set of annoying quirks just like any other IBM-era ThinkPad. The SATA-PATA bridge, tg3 noise at full network load, and lack of support for AHCI being the worst ones IMHO.
