For those who may not be aware, there is a web site collecting signatures on
a petition to be sent to PC manufacturers urging them to provide detailed
technical specs to Linux developers. The first paragraph of the petition
reads:
We, members of the Linux community and the computing population in
general,
believe that you, the manufacturers of pc computing devices, should
make
available to Linux developers full specification of your devices, so
that
Linux compatible device drivers can be produced for your products. If
you
feel this information is confidential, then we ask you to write, and
make
freely available, drivers for your products.
Anyone interested in signing the petition can go to
