Timur Tabi is a Linux device driver developer who was once a well-known OS/2 user and developer. Timur used to work at IBM on the OS/2 multimedia subsystem. During that time, he:

  • Created RTMIDI, the real-time MIDI subsystem.
  • Created the MPU-401 device driver.
  • Pioneered the development of C++ in OS/2 device drivers.
  • Did the initial work on the object-oriented audio device driver sample.

After leaving IBM in 1997, Timur no longer did any major OS/2 development but still contributed to the OS/2 community, particularly by giving presentations on OS/2 programming at the Warpstock conferences. Timur finally gave up OS/2 altogether in 2004, when he had to get rid of his personal PC and his home office to make room for his second child.
