Sniff... c=C3=A9st la vi=C3=A9 These drivers will (eventually) need to be updated for Giant locking / spl* leftovers, or be removed. I assumed that these were all museum-class hardware and nobody would use them with contemporary FreeBSD; NYC*BUG dmesgd[1] seemed to concur. That said, I don't think they have a significant maintenance burden in the near term. Any of these drivers that will actually be used with FreeBSD 14 could have their retirement postponed. If this is desired, please identify the specific driver(s), follow up here with a confirmation that they work with 12.3/13.0/CURRENT, and ideally send a dmesg to dmesgd. As far as I can tell there are no GUS cards listed in dmesgd at all. (I also had an original GF1 Ultrasound with 1MB on board although I think it sadly went to e-waste. I never used it with FreeBSD, and it seems the snd_gusc driver only supports UltraSound MAX and newer anyhow.) [1] https://dmesgd.nycbug.org/index.cgi
