Greetings All,
I am wondering if anything is still using the Davicom DM9000 driver recently as the code base states its from the late 1990s. Furthermore I see no reason to keep it around if something recent i.e. last 10 years is using it that is based off the mainline/stable releases as otherwise it's legacy code and should be removed in my option.
Cheers,
Nick
Nick,
Yes, it is still used.
