## Why are hardware reports needed?

Each computer model has different hardware interfaces, firmware implementations, and devices, which can cause the following problems:

- Boot bugs
- Lack of device support
- Performance degradation

These reports helps us to fix the problems above, your report may help to fix many computers affected by the same bugs or missing drivers.

## What if my computer is customized?

If your desktop is customized (common) you should use the "Custom" word on the "Vendor" category and insert the motherboard and CPU vendor/model in the "Model" category.

A customized laptop should only be reported if you replaced the original CPU, report the CPU vendor and model in the "Model" category.

We also recommend to add your `pciutils` log as a comment on [this](https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/redox/-/issues/1797) tracking issue to help us with probable device porting.

## Status

The following limitations apply to any status.

- ACPI support is incomplete (some things are hardcoded in the kernel to work)
- Wi-Fi and Bluetooth aren't supported yet
- Only Intel GPUs are supported, other GPU vendors use BIOS VESA or UEFI GOP
- I2C devices aren't supported yet (PS/2 or USB devices should be used)
- USB support varies on each device model because some USB devices require specific drivers (use input devices with standardized controls for more compatibility)
- Automatic operating system discovery is not implemented in the boot loader yet (remember this before installing Redox)

### Recommended

This status is used when the operating system boots with video, sound, PS/2 or USB input, Ethernet, terminal and Orbital working.

### Booting

This status is used when the operating system successfully boot with some issues or lacking hardware support (write the issues and what supported hardware is not working in the "Report" section).

### Broken

This status is used when the boot loader or system boot doesn't work.

### Template

You will use this template to insert your computer on the table.

```
|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
```

The Redox image date should use the [ISO format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601)

### Table row ordering

New reports should use an independent alphabetical order in the "Vendor" and "Model" table rows, for example:

```
| ASUS | ROG g55vw |
| ASUS | X554L |
| System76 | Galago Pro (galp5) |
| System76 | Lemur Pro (lemp9) |
```

A comes before S, R comes before X, G comes before L

Each "Vendor" has its own alphabetical order in "Model", independent from models from other vendor.

Those logs also happen to be offset so that the leftmost portion of all text "exists" past the leftmost part of the screen, resulting in the logs being only partially visible. The logs appear to include (among other things) 1. "thread 'main' (1) panicked at acpid/src/acpi.rs:256:68: Called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: Aml(NoCurrentOp)"; 2. "thread 'main' (1) panicked at acpid/src/main.rs:147:39:acpid: failed to daemonize: Error `I/O error` 5"; 3. "... [@hwd:40 ERROR] failed to probe with error No such device (os error 19)..."; etc. |
