I hope so.
I thought isapnp was best left to user-space (I'm not ever sure luse95 activate the devices as part of the kernel).
What (aside from most modern sound cards) really requires isapnp support in the kernel? Won't most IDE & SCSI thingies be initialized sufficiently by the bios?
And if it really is required - can is it possible to mark it __initfunc() ?
