+Unsupported-hardware 
+Written by Arnaud Westenberg email:arnaud@wanadoo.nl
+This software is released under the GPL-License.
+Version 0.7  6 Aug 2001
+
+If your hardware is currently not supported there are two things you can do:
+1) Edit the file src/template.c
+2) Send an email to arnaud@wanadoo.nl
+
+If you choose to add the code yourself, all you have to do is edit the file
+template.c. This file contains hardware specific template functions wich you can
+edit to make the hardware work with the driver. When you have edited this file
+you can simply load the driver with the module parameter hw=template and all
+should work fine. IMO the functions in template.c are well commented and you 
+should have little trouble in adding/changing the correct code. If it still 
+doesn't work feel free to contact me at arnaud@wanadoo.nl. In case you've
+sucessfully changed the template.c file, please send this file (no patches 
+please) to me so I can extend the drivers supported hardware base.
+
+If you don't have the skills to add/change the code yourself, feel free to 
+contact me at arnaud@wanadoo.nl
