x86 only: Driver Support

The Solaris operating environment running on an x86 based system currently supports numerous devices based on the ISA and EISA I/O buses. Support for these devices and the device drivers written specifically for them may be removed in a future release.

The following device drivers that support only ISA and EISA devices may be removed in a future release. Note that drivers marked with an asterisk (*) also support PCI devices; these drivers continue to be included in the Solaris operating environment to support PCI devices only.
