Hallo
if you have a look at this page here: http://geizhals.at/deutschland/?cat=wlanrout
you will notice, that you can filter for "DD-WRT". That means, the model is supported by DD-WRT and not necessarily that it is pre-installed!
I was wondering, whether the support of coreboot of a model could be stated here: http://geizhals.at/deutschland/?cat=mb1ppga_ddr Under "Besonderheiten:"="Features"
I, as a customer, am highly interested in such a filter. Question is, whether you and they (geizhals) are as well.
I highly doubt, the people there are willing to check http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards whether a product is already supported once a week...
Since I represent neither coreboot (obviously) nor geizhals nor DD-WRT, I have no idea how this flow of information could be managed. But I love the idea of having this filter, right before I buy something.
They already filter for UEFI, I'd like to be able to filter for coreboot as well.
Oh, http://skinflint.co.uk/?cat=mb1ppga_ddr seems to be their english site.

Hallo again, http://www.skinflint.co.uk => price comparison for United Kingdom
http://www.geizhals.at => Preisvergleich für Österreich http://www.gh.de => Preisvergleich für Deutschland http://www.geizhals.eu => price comparison EU http://cenowarka.pl => price comparison for Poland
I did write them a mail with my proposal, and they denied it for the time being because so very few //currently purchasable// models are supported by coreboot that a filter does not make sense at the moment.
Well, they have a point. May idea was, that I accidentally stumbled upon the ASRock E350M1 being supported, something I would never have expected, because I new there was more support for elder hardware, then for new one. I would have liked to put this information more into the foreground, so people don't miss it. It is awesome!
Bottom line: As soon as more //currently purchasable// models are supported by coreboot gh would be interested to implement such a filter.
And they probably would check http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards themselves and update their database as DD-WRT is not supplying them with information. So no effort here.
