Wanted hardware

If you have some hardware to donate, please check the list of wanted hardware below and contact the appropriate persons directly if appropriate.

If you have some hardware to donate that no-one is specifically looking for and your hardware uses a special type of processor (ARM, PowerPC etc), please check the list of Debian ports for contact information related to your hardware.

If you are still not able to find a recipient for your hardware donation, you may contact the Debian hardware donations delegates for further suggestions.

If Debian is not able to accept your hardware donation, you might want to contact other related organisations who are looking for hardware.

Other hardware wishlists

Available hardware

Some services can provide automated access to hardware for running particular kinds of tests. These can help identify specific issues but have limitations on what components can be installed, upgraded or replaced - typically bootloaders are excluded, although bootloader interactivity can be supported.

LAVA

See the list of devices on Staging or Production. LAVA is also available in Debian (lava-server) and includes extensive documentation on writing tests for LAVA, including use cases and examples. To submit jobs to the current instances, a login will be required. The LAVA instances require a Launchpad ID to login or email codehelp@debian.org with a link to a git repository containing the YAML files and links to the kernel, dtb and rootfs files so that the jobs can be submitted on your behalf. It may also be worth looking at vmdebootstrap for support in building images based on the Debian ARMMP kernel packages.

Add your hardware wishlist

If you want some specific hardware to be used for your work on Debian, enter your WikiName or TeamName (no spaces) in the text box below and press the button:

If you receive donated hardware, you are expected to post reports about the hardware you received and what it enabled you to achieve to the relevant places, for example to your blog and Planet Debian, to debian-devel, present a talk at DebConf or a mini-DebConf, post to the relevant Debian porting mailing list (debian-arm for eg) etc.

Once you have received the hardware you wanted and no longer need any more of the requested hardware please rename your hardware wishlist page to Hardware/Received/{WikiName} so that we have a record of which hardware was given to who and what was achieved as a result of the donation.

Once you no longer need the hardware you have received, please return it to the donor, donate it to another person/organisation or dispose of it in an environmentally responsible manner.
