40.Sh DESCRIPTION
41The
42.Nm
43utility downloads the specified mini-driver and firmware files to the specified
44device.
45.Pp
46This utility will
47.Em only
48work with Broadcom BCM2033 chip based Bluetooth USB devices.
49The identification is currently based on USB vendor ID/product ID pair.
50The vendor ID should be 0x0a5c
51.Pq Dv USB_VENDOR_BROADCOM
52and the product ID should be 0x2033.
53.Pp
54Due to copyright issues I will no longer provide mini-driver and firmware
55files for the device.
56These files can be obtained from the Linux BlueZ bluez-firmware package.
