Linux Supports More Than Hardware Operating SystemsThe operating system GNU / Linux is the most compatible in the world with all kinds of hardware, or so says one of the leading developers of drivers for this segment, which debunks the popular belief that hardware support is lower in GNU / Linux than other alternatives.

The words of Greg Kroah-Hartman is a bit surprising, especially for those usuariosdel GNU / Linux that have been experiment with different distributions, and encounter the same problem: not all hardware is working properly in Vista or XP Similarly it does on any Linux distribution.

The main maintainer of USB drivers and one of the greatest managers in the distro kernel Novell has stated that these problems are specific, and there are very few devices that are not supported.

Linux Driver Project initiative is helping to advance precisely in this area, as more than 300 developers have signed up to set free drivers for hardware manufacturers to start offering their asking the fruits of their work. Future versions of the core will be particularly important in that paragraph, so it is clear that the hardware support in GNU / Linux is getting better.
