It seems to have been removed from -STABLE for a while now, but I'm not sure why. Can someone explain why it has been removed, or perhaps if it got broken, if it is feasible to put it back into -STABLE? I am running -STABLE on those machines, but I have to manually modify a few files is /src/sys to both fix the driver and to recognize the device at all. These machines and cards are old, granted. But there is a certain pride that I can take in keeping a 486DX/100 and a 386SX/16 as two of the most stable machines in a production environment.
