31.Sh NAME
32.Nm uled
33.Nd USB LED driver
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
36your kernel configuration file:
37.Bd -ragged -offset indent
38.Cd "device uled"
39.Cd "device usb"
40.Ed
41.Pp
42Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time,
43place the following line in
44.Xr loader.conf 5 :
45.Bd -literal -offset indent

58The following
59.Xr ioctl 2
60commands can be performed on
61.Pa /dev/uled0 ,
62which are defined in
