This is CURRENT des, things are expected to not work or even break at
times.

And instead of just throwing out and voicing this `loss of faith' you
could have taken a more active approach and try and help and see what
was causing the actual problems with the not-detection of the cards.

Cameron and Tanimura-san have done great work and we getting further and
further where we want to go with the new sound support.

The FreeBSD Project taught me that it is easy to just bitch and moan,
but that the real work only comes when you help with it yourself.
That's a lesson you must have learned way before I even joined helping
on the project.
