Hardware Compatibility

Philip Tricca edited this page Jul 4, 2014 · 26 revisions

OpenXT depends heavily on hardware to support software features. At times we run into problems with platforms (laptops / desktops etc) and their implementations of these hardware features. This page is a place where the OpenXT community can track the testing done on the available platforms and the level of support each platform provides. We expect this will start with developers reporting their successes and failures for their test systems but eventually we hope that OEMs will participate as well.

OpenXT HCL Table Legend

This legend describes the intended purpose of each column in the OpenXT HCL table.

Note: that I can't get the GitHub wiki to respect MediaWiki 'style' attributes so I can't figure out how to color the cell backgrounds. Anyone figure this out feel free to make 'success' green and 'fail' red.

Attributes
Column Meaning
Platform The platform is an identifier for the system under test. For a specific laptop or desktop this will be the name used by the manufacturer. For non-traditional systems ("beige box") this should be the manufacturers name for the motherboard.
CPU The manufacturers name for the CPU.
Graphics The manufacturers name for the GPU on the system. As is increasingly common the GPU will be integrated into the CPU but in some cases it will be a discrete device.
