All of these drivers used to live stand-alone outside of the kernel, so that's maybe why it was needed at one time. I say delete it all :) thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
