I am not sure I understand your sentence ;)  Nevermind, I have patch
ready that should help users and limit further reports about the ISA
bus:

1* Elektor depends on ISA.
2* ELV and Velleman do not depend on ISA.
3* i2c-isa is M by default, and has an additional help text
4* via686a autoselects i2c-isa
5* i2c-isa doesn't depend on ISA

If I understand it correctly, CONFIG_ISA does *not* do anything but
enable the user to select other drivers or enable specific parts in
drivers.  So I don't see any drawback nor possible problem not
depending on it.

I will send this patch to you this evening.
