Some ideas:

Break it up into multiple parts, the following:

- Optical Drives
- Motherboards
- Sound cards
- Video cards
- Other PCI devices
- Cameras / WebCams
- Modems
- I/O devices (Mice, keyboards, of all kinds)
- Networking devices
- WiFi devices (Really do deserve their own page)

And from there it grows. But there should be a way for a person to scan their entire system, and let them know what hardware linux has detected & is working... That way we can identify motherboards easier; I know I have no idea what motherboard is in this Dell, and I'm not alone.

This could be quite a page if *everything* is listed here. And it's something we need, a centralized way for everyone to find out how to run Linux on their hardware. And in the future, maybe there could be a section on "unsupported hardware" to let developers know what they can do to improve hardware support. CatastrophicToad 10:42, 7 September 2007 (EDT)
