    Hi, Im thinking of hosting a website for Linux hardware compatability etc. Does anyone know or have any ideas what software I should use to manage it? I had the idea about using Joomla but I would greatly appreciate your help.

    I dont really see the point, there is documentation already on hardware compatability for most distro's, and on the kernel site, but if you want an open source message board there is phpbb.

    If you want a really fast (but not loaded with features) forum, take a look at punBB:

    I had the idea because there is no site that contains a summary of hardware supported, the various programs to use and the documentation. I just found that getting my Belkin Wireless G 54mbps adaptor to work was a nightmare (it still isn't working!!!)

    Any more suggestions?
