See Jeff's answer, Carlos. I'm not the one making the change.
I did not say you were.
But I'd also be inclined to RTFM for information like that, too.
Where? :-)
If I need a filesystem that isn't installed, my approach would be to look to see if it was included in the kernel package (which it sounds like it would be), and then to look at why it isn't auto-loading.
Ok, so look, read, study... Problems, delays.
That seems like common sense to me.
What doesn't seem like common sense to me is to load it on millions of installations where it isn't needed because a hundred (thousand, whatever small percentage use OS/2 in dual-boot configs with openSUSE) can't be bothered to uncomment a line in a blacklist file.
I'm not saying to keep the drivers. Did I? I only say that the users that need one of those filesystems in the future will be surprised and not know what to do. Ideally, the mount command would print information, or where to read more. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
