    1. What is this? And what isn't it?


    This is a user driven Hardware Compatibility List for CentOS 3, CentOS 4 and CentOS 5. That means that we need your help with these pages. I'd like to see this page as an entry point for hardware that does not work with CentOS out of the box or only with some eort. I do not see a need for a list which states all working hardware. So if you have some piece of hardware you'd like to use under CentOS, but aren't able to, or if you have got some piece of hardware to work, which isn't supported by CentOS directly, but needs a driver disk for example, this would be the place to exchange your adventures with other people.

    2. Where to turn rst?


    These drivers are compiled into the kernel either directly or as a module: List of drivers compiled into the CentOS 3 kernel. This is a copy of the kernel conguration. List of drivers compiled into the CentOS 4 kernel. This is a copy of the kernel conguration. List of drivers compiled into the CentOS 5 kernel. This is a copy of the kernel conguration. There are some places on the web where you should look rst to see if your hardware is supported or not. First is the Hardware listing of the upstream provider, where you also can nd complete systems that are certied for running under RHEL - meaning that those should also work under CentOS. Second: CentOS keeps a set of Release Notes at the bottom of The ocial documentation page. Those are for 4.x only, there doesn't seem to be a place with a collection of the 3.x release notes. CentOS 5 Release Notes can be found at the Release Notes section of the wiki. The current 3.x release notes can be found on http://mirror.centos.org /3/os/ and then in the directory for your hardware architecture. Older release notes might be found on http://vault.centos.org/3.x/os/ and again

    in the corresponding directory for your hardware. Another point of information are the searchable CentOS list archives. Note the little google search box in the upper left corner of that page. Further on there is the Hardware Forum for CentOS 5, the Hardware Forum for CentOS 4 and the Hardware Forum for CentOS 3 on the CentOS Homepage. #centos on irc.freenode.net is another valuable source of information about hardware issues. Please read the CentOS IRC Guidelines rst. So you see that there really is no need to look here for Hardware support. Except for Hardware you're having trouble to get working ...

    3. CentOS on Laptops
    We have created a separate page to list information about CentOS on dierent Laptop models. If you own a laptop, why not try CentOS on it and report your experience ?

    If you have an in-depth explanation of the problem, please put it here == Output of `lspci -v` == Paste the relevant part of the output of 'lspci -v' here. Not all of it, just the stuff regarding this hardware. == Solution == Do you have a solution for the problem? Is there a third party driver available? == Workaround == Is there a workaround for that hardware, like using CentOS 3 instead of CentOS 4? == Notes == This place intentionally left blank. But you might have something to fill this space with. Please don't get offensive here, or only if you absolutely have to.
