The Linux Incompatibility List
Jonathan Lassoff writes "The Linux Incompatibility list is a wiki project that attempts to document hardware that is incompatible with Linux rather than list what is compatible. In the wiki, it is possible to add alternitives so as to push hardware manufacturers to make good binary drivers, publish specifications, or even better, publish open drivers."

I didn't advertise it on slashdot... actually, I would have preferred that it didn't go near slashdot for a while untill it was good and ready. Bleagh.

I overjoyed when, having bought a Fujifilm camera, I realized I could justify having /mnt/fuji on my system. Oh well, little things please little minds I suppose... ;-)

it's been "canon"ized.
DOH!

LOL, I had the same kind of, um, epiphany when I bought my Fujifilm S3000 last winter
Been damned happy with that camera. Having one that mounts as a usb storage device can also be really handy, I use it's ability to connect to a TV/VCR to upload images to it and record them to VCR so I can send them to my internet-impaired relatives

It's old. The more humans I meet, the more I like my cats. At least they are honest.
In fairness to the ladies (for whom I am not the best spokesmodel, being male), there should be a -1 Sexist moderator option... Who brings me dinner when I've been coding for hours at home?? I'm not that easy to maintain myself!
Or maybe around here it would be a +1 Sexist? Wink wink, nudge nudge...
