I use the matcd driver in an old IBM ValuePoint 486DX2/66 running 4.7-PRERELEASE (see boot message at end) in active service. => Unless we can find some people who actually use these devices and => can test patches for these drivers we will have to drop support for => them. So, is anyone out there still using this old hardware? Note => that if support for these ancient devices was dropped, it wouldn't => be dropped until 5.0. 4.x. would continue to support these devices => forever. Speaking of "ancient devices," the machine using the matcd driver also has an obscure MV Jazz16 sound card (requiring extra trickery in my kernel config file to get it to probe and work). Will this also be supported? I don't run -current, but do track -stable (at least as well as I can on a machine that takes well over a day to do a "make buildworld"), if that helps any.
