-<h4>Development Status</h4>
-
-<p>Project is no longer developed. The key functionality is reached
-by the latest released version. All its resources are available
-@{[ a_href 'CVS.pm#source','here' ]} for download.</p>
-
-<h4>Known Issue</h4>
-
-<p>Captive was written to interface with the Linux kernel via
-@{[ a_href 'http://lufs.sourceforge.net/lufs/','LUFS' ]}.
-Unfortunately, this project is no longer being maintained by its author.
-Mounting of NTFS devices usually works, but is no longer supported by the
-author of Captive. Always unmount the device by umount(8) command before shutting
-down your GNU/Linux system.</p>
-
-<p>A port of Captive to the newer
-@{[ a_href 'http://fuse.sourceforge.net/','FUSE' ]}
-interface has not yet been implemented.
-There is an experimental LUFS-FUSE bridge called
-@{[ a_href 'http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=121684','lufis' ]}
-that can be used in the meanwhile.
-Also, the captive-cmdline(1) interface will get around any kernel compatibility
-problems.</p>

<p>Needed drivers (at least ntoskrnl.exe+ntfs.sys) must be in '<b>/var/lib/captive</b>'.</p>

-<h2>LUFS Kernel Driver Module</h2>
-
-<p>@{[ a_href 'http://lufs.sourceforge.net/lufs/','LUFS' ]} (Linux Userland File
-System) needs Linux kernel module driver (<i>lufs.o</i>) compatible with your
-running Linux kernel. The binary driver is supplied already precompiled for many
-Linux kernel versions in the binary packages above (<b>.i386.rpm</b> and
-<b>_i386.deb</b> archives).</p>
+<h2>FUSE Kernel Driver Module</h2>
-<p>If you cannot <b>mount</b>(8) your NTFS filesystem you should run <span
-class="quote">/usr/share/lufs/prepmod</span> to see the reasons. It is always
-recommended to upgrade to the latest stable kernel supplied by your GNU/Linux
-distribution vendor. You may need to install package
-<b>kernel-source</b> (Red Hat) or <b>kernel-headers</b> (Debian) matching your
-Linux kernel version (<b>rpm -q kernel</b>) and re-run <span
-class="quote">/usr/share/lufs/prepmod</span>.</p>
+<p>@{[ a_href 'http://fuse.sourceforge.net/','FUSE' ]} (Filesystem in Userspace)
+needs Linux kernel module driver (<i>fuse.ko</i>) compatible with your
+running Linux kernel.</p>
-<p><b>WARNING:</b> This 'captive' package may modify your Linux kernel
-sources matching your currently running kernel version. These minor
-modifications may include a dependencies rebuild, compiling build tools, fixes of
-several include files, etc. All the modifications are done at the mount(8) time
-by the automatically executed <span class="quote">/usr/share/lufs/prepmod</span> script.
-This behavior was not present in the original
-@{[ a_href 'http://lufs.sourceforge.net/lufs/','LUFS' ]} distribution
-by @{[ a_href 'http://www.malinux.net/main/','Florin Malita' ]}.</p>
+<p>If you cannot <b>mount</b>(8) your NTFS filesystem you should check your
+Linux kernel is based on version at least 2.6.14 where
+@{[ a_href 'http://fuse.sourceforge.net/','FUSE' ]} got imported. You should
+also check the module is enabled or even built-in.</p>
