Why don't we leave the stuff as is and have new(er) drivers
(if they are
available for 2.4) as additions. Sure that looses the
possibility to
install IPCop on a box with only new cards but saves lots of
time and
trouble.
There is plenty to do as is, and there are many cards out
there that are
currently unsupported.
cheers Olaf
