Ugh. Even it they're obsolete, they shouldn't be dropped just like that. *If* we are dropping them, we should warn people well in advance (i.e. one release before, say). Otherwise people might get a bit unhappy when stuff that used to work fine mysteriously breaks. Personally, I'd wait for advice from the kernel people before dropping obsolete devices. Christian
