Where's the list of needed hardware for donating?

Where's the list of needed hardware for donating?

[Richard Hubbell]

Does a list exist describing the hardware needed or wished for to
extend coverage for kernel development?  I saw such a list at openbsd
and thought it was a good idea.

Heh, second zaurus for testing would certainly help ;-).

Ok, here's the list:

Adaptec AHA-1510A
(ISA, centronix-style external connector with terminator, one internal
ribbon cable,
I probably have some centronix-style external cables around too, this
card doesn't have it's own boot ROM)

Gravis UltraSound a.k.a. GUS
(ISA, fully loaded with memory, 1megabyte (I think))

Pertec MyTape 800
(I think this is a QIC tape drive that connects via the floppy interface)

TEAC 1.44  3.5 inch Floppy FDR
(FD-235HF)

Rocket Port 8-port serial board
(ISA, 8 - RJ11 jacks, made by Comtrol, brand-new in-box)

Hasn't that been fully supported for years in ALSA?  I remember the guy
that started ALSA had written an amazing driver for the GUS before
starting ALSA.

I thought QIC floppy connected tape drives were supported as well.

Standard 3.5" floppy drive?

I know nothing about the support of the rest of the hardware.
