Option three: YOLO it and be the first to come up with a working config for it after ripping your hair out for weeks.
And then never tell the rest of the Internet...

Hey guys I got a wifi69 card, does anyone know how to make it work? NVM I fixed it.
(User disappears after the post and never elaborates, meanwhile replying to the thread is also a necro post and it gets locked anyway)

I somehow came across a guy who seems to be doing exactly that first part for RGB control of Corsair products.
Dude will add support for your devices in a matter of days if it doesn't already exist, and won't even take donations for his project. The open source community is awesome sometimes.

That's pretty much how I buy my phones: Look at the LineageOS device list, find the newest ones I can find/afford.
-
Same, but grapheneOS and max screen width (big hands / fat fingers).
-
That's easy
Graphene only supports Pixels

I've been using Linux for close to twenty years. What hardware database?
-
!⬆️!< Same question? 🤔
-
It probably means this hardware database.

Weird how this often ends up with devices that don't randomly break after exactly 1 year
-
It's why I get AMD for everything.
-
There plenty of other things to consider too, though, especially for laptops.
WiFi chipset, trackpad hardware, webcam, all can lead to a sad time with the wrong manufacturers and driver support
-
Yeah, my keyboard just straight up didn't work when I got my laptop; thankfully the issue was already fixed in a newer kernel so I just had to update (using a USB keyboard, lol).
-
Intel is also a major Linux contributor
-
While AMD is certainly better than the alternatives when it comes to device compatibility, we're still missing an open multi-platform cross-architecture compile-time standard (like a "C for graphics programing."). So long as that remains the case, the graphics market will continue to have a number of artificial barriers to entry that favor Microsoft Windows.

Isn't that what openGL and vulkan aim for?

As someone with size 14-wide (US) feet, this is how I shop for shoes. Don't even look at styles or price, I just look for the pairs that are in stock in my size and that narrows the other factors down for me a lot.
-
Bruh, same. Except if it's a store I've not been too before. Then I just ask the first associate i see if they have 15's.

I remember getting a "winmodem" working on Mandrake back in the late 90s and thinking I was the smartest boy alive.

@xia I wish more people understood this.... gah

Maybe i have been lucky?, I did replace a mini nvme-wifi adapter with a intel one that worked once.

M2 2230 very fancy naming.

Well, intels almost always work, but mediatek...well it's not even worth mentioning.

I'm not gonna listen to Geordi because he lives in an alternate universe where everything is compatible with everything else.
-
Ackshually... in season three episode seven "The Enemy" it is made clear that Romulan technology is generally assumed to be completely interoperable when Geordi could not connect his VISOR to his tricorder in more than a superficial way... Quote he: "they don't speak the same language". :-)
-
I applaud the writers of that episode for doing that, but I've seen too many episodes/movies where people use alien technology with no indication they have a hard time with the interface, or where a Federation ship outright trades equipment with previously uncontacted aliens, and it just works. Hell, even Trip's reproductive system is so compatible with an alien's that she can get him pregnant! And don't even get me started on how often people just walk up and use a control panel to access sensitive systems without needing to present any kind of credentials.
