Libranet's Linux Drivers Petition tops 30,000

The Linux Drivers Petition hosted by Libranet has passed the 30,000 signatures mark. It looks like the open source community is getting behind this one.

"Linux is hampered by a lack of drivers for some pc devices, notably printers."

"In an effort to help correct this, we are collecting signatures to a petition which will be submitted to the major producers of pc devices."

"It is our hope that we will collect 2,000,000 signatures within a short time and that this will cause these companies to take notice of the need to co-operate with Linux developers in producing Linux drivers for their products."
