It is, but: 1. It=E2=80=99s not as prominent and explicit as it could be: it=E2=80=99= s within a paragraph (as opposed to a table), there=E2=80=99s no mention of iwlwi= fi, etc. 2.

By devices, I meant primarily WiFi devices, sound cards, etc. for the more common x86_64 hardware. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
