Okay, if we argue that way we also could stop providing i586 kernels in
FC. Okay, okay, no flamewar please, don't take that serious. 

Yes, probably nearly nobody needs a ati or a nvidia driver for a i586
machine (but we provide them on livna). But ntfs and/or GFS (or insert
something that else that may arise in the future) might me of interest.
