Being an Ethernet driver maintainer and being at most 4 years old when Fast Ethernet was introduced makes me biased to the point of irrelevant here, but I absolutely am all for drivers for old 100M-only devices being removed. I just can't really understand the support. I'd be incredibly annoyed if anything I owned was 100M-at-most (like my Wi-Fi router), and Intel is already dropping support left and right for 100M speeds on newer things. Maybe it just comes down to money. - Eric On Fri, Oct 5, 2018 at 10:28 AM Michael Schmiedgen <schmiedgen@gmx.net> wrote: > > > I'd also suggest that rl stands in stark contrast to the cs, wb, sn, smc, > > sf, tl, tx and vr drivers, which nobody has mentioned in this thread, and > > which I doubt are in use in any FreeBSD system of any age today. > > > vr(4) here in im PCEngines ALIX board running OPNsense. > > Michael > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-arch@freebsd.org mailing list > https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-arch > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-arch-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
