Here's a list of places where you can get hardware that should be
compatible:
  * [[https://shop.libiquity.com/product/taurinus-x200|Libiquiti]]
  * [[https://minifree.org/|Minifree]]
  * [[https://tehnoetic.com/|Tehnoetic]]
  * [[https://store.vikings.net/|Vikings]]
  * [[https://puri.sm/products/|Purism]]

Hello,

<address@hidden> skribis:

As I've got here
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2018-10/msg00083.html
some devices cannot work without linux-firmware, requiring non-free
software drivers. It is so bad.

I believe the issue can be solved by choosing devices that have proper
support by linux-libre code. So how to do this? Is there any info how
to choose devices working nice on linux-libre?

The manual gives a couple of hints:

 
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Hardware-Considerations.html

The problem is of course not specific to GuixSD, that’s why the manual
refers to H-Node, but there are probably other similar resources out
there.

HTH,
Ludo’.
