Interesting. I would expect the drivers to work, as you said, but the
rationale behind my email is more like, do we want to keep supporting
these cards in the first place? Is there demand for them? Ed got rid of
the ISA drivers a while ago as well, so I'm thinking whether we might
want to start cleaning up our PCI drivers as well.
