So, if they can do that, why can't we do something similar? Or at least, automate figuring out which driver needs installing. There's a look-up chart that we have to manually trawl through, can't we pull that data into some software?
We can't do that for the same reasons that the drivers can't be in the official Fedora repos: they're closed source binary blobs, not open source. Ubuntu can do that because they don't have the same restrictions that we do.
