You could also ping the mailing list and ask if someone has the
hardware available for testing.

I make most of my machines available over SSH and I am happy to lend
them to free software developers.

I find the problem with testing is the developer. Some package will
have a bug on a particular platform. I offer them access to the
machine to reproduce it, but they don't take the offer. I find GNU
developers are notorious for it.
