When using footnotes, the main text must read correctly if you ignore
the notes. This isn't the case for the second and third footnotes here.
Examples for several fbdev drivers are available in Thomas
Zimmermann's fbconv tree [4]_, as well as a tutorial of this
process [5]_.
I'm not making a call on whether that's better or not that's better than
the current situation.
An alternative is to use plain links:
Examples for several fbdev drivers are available in 'Thomas
Zimmermann's fbconv tree`_, as well as a `tutorial of this
process`_.
