This page lists wiki articles that gather info about the devices that require non-free firmware in the kernel Linux. It is intended as a way to foster the development of free firmwares for these devices by making information more easily accessible and better organized. --Felipe Sanches
This list of devices is based on the Linux-Libre 2.6.35.4-libre2 log file. It is similar to http://www.fsf.org/resources/hw/firmware but aims at more detailed technical info.
Use this template when starting a wiki-page about a new device.
