I think this could be done by means of the client, for example the client already lists the devices of a user. It does not currently look for the driver/firmware name but we should add it. (points 1,2,3) We could use a list of all the drivers/firmware used by the linux-libre kernel and check if a driver used is inside that list (4,5), the client should do it We could think to create an alert (8) if a device is marked as working while the driver/firmware is not in the list of the drivers/firmware loaded by linux-libre > I suppose you can find it in the linux-libre scripts. > http://www.linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/releases/LATEST-2.6.39.N/ I'm certainly not able to discover that list because I do not have any experience on linux-libre and on a kernel in general :) > I am copying this mail to that list so we can be sure.
