As I think more about this question, I think about all the different pieces of software and drivers that come with new versions of Ubuntu, and therefore, we may not ever have a full list of questions, because as new drivers and new software comes out, and new versions of new programs come out old answers and questions may be outdated, as seen in this questionthis question, vs this older, outdated questionthis older, outdated question.

Right now, there are probably not enough users

  1. Using Ubuntu, or even Linux to stay up to date with all the new kernels, upgrades, etc.
  2. Active users on AskUbuntu asking questions that haven't been asked before

This is probably in part due to the fact, that some problems are more common than others, however people will always find a new way to break an installation, or a clever trick to brick their drivers!

To sum up, maybe there will be a time when we have a full "chest" so-to-speak of completely answered questions, that users can simply scroll through to their content, but for now it does not seem feasible.
