Linux Hardware Databases Merge

Posted by Roblimo on from the maybe-I'll-finally-find-a-good-monitor-cheap dept.

Kristopher Kersey writes "The two available online Linux Hardware Databases located at CompHardware.com and LhD.DataPower.com have decided to merge and form a new partnership for Linux hardware information. The new partnership gives LhD.DataPower.com control of the database while giving CompHardware.com control over hardware reviews." Cool! Two (click) two useful Linux hardware sites in one.

  1. "Designed for Linux" by HomerJ · · Score: 4

    What would be great is if new hardware vendors put a "Designed for Linux" or at least a "Works with Linux" logo on their packaging. That way, when someone goes to buy something off the shelf, they know it works right away.

    I know if I went to buy a 3d card, NIC, etc, and I saw one with the penguin in the corner of the box, I'd get it.

    Maybe it could replace those God awful "Designed for Windows" logos =)
