I've seen this mention a few times, and if anyone looks at brainstorm, I bet its already there: Would it be of any interest having a tool (only on devel branches or the all time) that would gather the entire HW listing with FULL detail and upload it to some database? Some improved version of hwtest-gtk, mixed with hwinfo and sysinfo (sysinfo as a great user UI and could also teach/report to the user about supported HW). Maybe hook up hwtest-gtk to system 1st runs and kernel upgrades, and notify the user to run the tests, and send the report. > When I upgrade to a new release, I always think (or is it knowing): "Ok, > for the next 4 hours I'll sit in front of this computer, and I expect > something to break...because it's software made by people".

But this won't help for everybody, I know. That's why I start testing in early development versions: so that stuff can be detected and users on a stable release dont find all those many bugs. I've already upgraded my laptop to Jaunty. With this I can keep up the development, and help fix stuff before release -- BUGabundo :o) (``-_-´´) http://LinuxNoDEI.BUGabundo.net Linux user #443786 GPG key 1024D/A1784EBB My new micro-blog @ http://BUGabundo.net ps.
