and is somewhat obsoleted by modern BS even if user case is somewhat different

</I>
was usefull since we cannot automatically support ISA cards
(no easy way to detect, detection could deadlock machines, ...)
(at least pnp* isn't needed since kernel-2.6.x?)
But ISApnp cards cannot be inserted in modern machines for ~8 years.
Dunno until what years ISA sound chips got still implemented on motherboards.
At least, I haven't seen any request for ISA support for 4-5 years.

&gt;<i> There is also a lot of hardware related software, can people check if

</I>
we mainly miss binary dkms packages IMHO
