Stop arguing that the inf should have the information necessary.. .and start showing that they do.
Isn't the fact that windows works with them a pretty good demonstration?
I FORBID arguments for arguments sake. If you want to argue with me about that, i suggest we open up a fedora-arguments-list.

Adam Jackson has previously done just that... he wrote quite succinctly that information in inf files is not enough to solve the underlying problems.
Is he suggesting that windows uses magic? I thought he meant instead that X doesn't use the information sensibly.
