right .. and I'm testing the new kernel at this time i'm writing a
short (simple) parser for traslate old isapnp to the kernel interface.
This is very simple task but other can be done by developer (and i'm
not such one), and no tested by user (at least if they don't need new
drivers).
However it's a good idea to point that new kernel exists and, soon or
late, it has to be supported
