Best place would be the already available hardware database...
Is there already a hook to that?

Or on the other hand, does HP have such a list for devices in hp-ux? I guess
that devices that work on i386 architectures in linux and on pa-risc
architectures in HP-UX (hence hardware does not bite and driver sources are
available) should be usable.
