But it is a question which would usually fall under the too broad category. However, I think certain kind of broad questions can be answered in a broad, but still comprehensive manner, and if someone manages to give such a comprehensive answer (like we see this here), I don't think the question deserves to be closed. | |

Some of the lesser used kernels implements Linux driver interface and therefore can often load and use the Linux drivers for that hardware. Linux itself sometimes implements Windows driver interface so it can use proprietary Windows' driver blobs (e.g. ndiswrapper). | |
