He is also the maintainer of the linux-hotplug and udev projects. Additionally, he maintains the Gentoo Linux packages for these programs, and helps with the kernel package. He works for SuSE Labs.

He is a co-author of the book, "Linux Device Drivers, 3rd Edition"[1] and a contributing editor for Linux Journal. He also contributes articles to LWN, the news computing site. Another book, "Linux Kernel in a Nutshell"[2] is in the offing.

Kroah-Hartman frequently helps in the documentation of the kernel and driver development through talks[3] [4] and tutorials[5] [6]. Recently, he released a CD image of material to get a programmer started on Linux device driver development [7].
