Contribute:

You can contribute by creating an account at h-node.org and editing its user-generated contents. All your modification will be saved in the history of the product you are editing/adding. Each revision (the current one or the old ones) will be marked by the name of the user who created it.

You can also contribute by suggesting new hardware that should be added to the database or features that should be implemented.

Free software:

In order to add a device to the h-node database, you must verify that it works using only free software. For this purpose, you must be running either: In order to add a device to the h-node database, you must verify that it works using only free software. For this purpose, you must be running either: 1) A GNU/Linux distribution that is on the FSF's list of endorsed distributions 2) Debian GNU/Linux, with only the main archive area enabled. The "contrib" and "non-free" areas must not be enabled when testing hardware. Double-check this by running apt-cache policy . The only package archive area mentioned in the output should be main. h-node lists only hardware that works with free drivers and without non-free firmware. Other GNU/Linux distributions (or Debian with contrib, non-free, or some 3rd-party archives enabled) include non-free firmware files, so they cannot be used for testing.
