After Linux 7.1 dropped support for old i486 CPUs and also began removing some old ISA and PCMCIA device drivers, there is some additional old hardware relics being cleared out of the in-development Linux 7.2 driver... The frame-buffer device driver for the old Hercules Monochrome ISA graphics card is now removed from the Linux kernel after decades at play...
Linux 7.2 is removing the frame-buffer driver for the Hercules Monochrome ISA graphics card. This card has been in use for over 40 years. The decision follows previous removals in Linux 7.1. The change is part of ongoing efforts to streamline the kernel. Older hardware support is being phased out gradually. This reflects the evolving nature of operating system development. Developers are focusing on modern technologies and hardware. The move may affect users relying on legacy systems.
