Nice. But well: It sound like yet-another-hardware-compatibility-list to me. Thus I'm wondering: Don't we have enough of those already?
Agreed.
Or wait, let's do it even better: Try to work together with all of those those and solve the problem once and for all *properly* and in a general way? Read that as: cooperate with at least Novell/Opensuse, Debian and Ubuntu and maybe get OSDL ^w TLF on board (from the start of).
That would be awesome. So many people are waiting for such a list.
How about something linked with Smolt ? You report your hardware with Smolt, it takes you to a webpage where you have a table with all your hardware, and 3 checkboxes for each component : Works, Works partially, Does not work.
If that sounds good, Smolt could then be ported to other distros, and the results of each could be aggregated on a single authoritative website.
I for one would love to see something like that.
