Did you manage to configure a hardware device that did not work out of the box? Did you find the right driver? The device does not work and you don't know what to do? Write a note about your experience right now in your hardware probe!

The Linux-Hardware.org database has been divided recently into a set of databases, one per each Linux distro. You can choose your favorite Linux distribution on the front page and hide probes and information collected from other Linux distributions.
Anyone can contribute to the database with the help of the hw-probe command:
hw-probe -all -upload
Hardware failures are highlighted in the collected logs (important SMART attributes, errors in dmesg and xorg.log, etc.). Also it's handy to search for particular hardware configurations in the community and review errors in logs to check operability of devices on board (for some devices this is done automatically by hw-probe — see statuses of devices in your probe).
Hardware stats and raw data are dumped to several GitHub repositories.
Thanks to all for attention and new computer probes!

We've implemented automated operability checks for devices via analysis of collected system logs in probes. We check if the driver is loaded and used for each device in the probe and if the device performs basic functions. For network cards we check received packets, for graphics cards we check absence of critical errors in the Xorg log and dmesg, for drives we check S.M.A.R.T. test results, for monitors we check the EDID and for batteries we check the remaining capacity ...
The largest open repository of monitor characteristics has been created recently containing EDID structures for more than 9000 monitors.
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a metadata format for display devices to describe their capabilities to a video source. The data format is defined by a standard published by VESA. EDID data structure includes manufacturer name and serial number, product type, phosphor or filter type, timings supported by the display, display size, luminance data and (for digital displays only) pixel mapping data.
The most famous analogue of the repository is the EDID.tv project, which also contains quite a lot of information about monitors.
The repository is replenished automatically based on recent hardware probes. One can participate in the replenishment of the repository by executing of one simple command in the terminal:
hw-probe -all -upload
The hw-probe utility is pre-installed in the ROSA Linux distribution.

Friends, I'd like to introduce new hw-probe 1.4.
Most significant change in this release is the anonymization of probes on the client-side. Previously "private data" (like IPs, MACs, serials, hostname, username, etc.) was removed on the server-side. But now you do not have to worry how server will handle your "private data", since it's not uploaded at all. You can now upload probes from any computers and servers w/o the risk of security leak.
The update is available in repositories.
Other changes:
• Up to 3 times faster probing of hardware
• Collect SMART info from drives connected by USB
• Initial support for probing drives in MegaRAID
• Improved detection of LCD monitors and drives
• Collect info about MMC controllers
• Probe for mcelog and cpuid
• Etc.
You can, as before, create a probe of your computer via the application in SimpleWelcome menu or from the console by a simple command:
hw-probe -all -upload
