Neon/Hardware: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:40, 23 February 2020

About

The Neon Hardware Database is automatically created based on hardware probes collected by this Deb package or by this Snap.

It is a part of the global Linux Hardware Database.

Submit your hardware

Everybody can submit computer details to the database to let other people know how their computer hardware configuration is supported by Neon.

Single command to collect info and add it to the database:

   hw-probe -all -upload

Output:

   Probe for hardware ... Ok
   Reading logs ... Ok
   Uploaded to DB, Thank you!
   Probe URL: https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=be75222fbd

Collected logs

Statistics

By creating a hardware probe you contribute to the "HDD/SSD Desktop-Class Reliability Test" study and to the development of smartmontools.

Debug ACPI subsystem

   sudo apt-get install acpica-tools
   sudo -E hw-probe -all -upload -decode-acpi

Privacy

Private info is not collected. Moreover, it's safer to share your logs by hw-probe rather than share manually, because most private data is removed or hashed at the client side before uploading.

Warning

Please note that a 32-byte prefix of salted SHA512 hashes of MAC addresses and serial numbers are uploaded to the server in order to properly identify unique computers and parts. These are unlikely to be reversible.
