About the Hardware Database
The Linux Hardware Database at Linux-Hardware.org is the largest (Linux) database of hardware with 200.000+ configurations collected since 2014.
The database is grown by Linux users from all over the world with the help of hw-probe client application and dumped to our repositories on GitHub.

The report is based on hardware probes of total 47 thousands of computers made by Linux users in 2020. Report details and Linux distribution-specific reports are available in this GitHub repository.
In October, we asked you to participate in the statistics of users of Linux distributions and here are the results.
This is a general report for all Linux distributions. See stats for your specific distribution on this page.

You often hear that hardware support is not good enough on Linux systems. The latest data from the Linux-Hardware.org portal suggests otherwise ...
Geo-location according to the telemetry report for Sep 01, 2020.
All of us, users of free OS like Linux or BSD, want better hardware support. We want support for both recently released new models of laptops, desktops and servers, as well as support for old hardware.
Unfortunately, there are not enough enthusiasts involved in the development and porting of drivers for Linux and BSD. Therefore, we often have to wait for support of new hardware. Sometimes hardware becomes obsolete faster than drivers appear for it. Linux has slightly better hardware support than BSD, but the situation is not ideal. According to statistics, almost 30% of users still encounter unsupported devices.
What are the benefits of anonymous telemetry, and how can it help solve these problems...
