Online Repository for Hardware Configurations?

Great_Jehovah asks: "I've done a lot of trial-and-error and spent time researching getting various devices (e.g. motherboards, USB devices, DVD burners) working on Linux. I've also spent a bunch of time configuring different pieces of software for particular applications. I would like a nice centralized place to share these pieces of knowledge and also to see what others have done. I've looked on Google but either I can't conjure the right keywords, or this place just doesn't exist yet. Anyone know where such a site exists? If not, I'll start one."

    I think it is this site. It has a fast search engine so it's only a matter of seconds to check if something is supported.

    take a look at Just Linux Hardware While it is fairly new, it is growing into quite a resource.
    Plus, the revenue the site generates gets donated to open source projects and orginizations, which is also pretty cool
