Even if it was unmaintained, it actually worked on some systems. My desktop uses
the acx driver for one, though I replaced it with the ndiswrapper driver to get
a more stable connection. Deleting acx means that without the help of another
computer, I won't be able to get the required driver for ndiswrapper to work
(and no, wired LAN is not an option, since I don't have a cable long enough).
I believe a broken driver is better than nothing -- at least it works when not
under load.
