101.Sh HISTORY
102The
103.Nm
104driver
105appeared in
106.Nx 1.3 .
107.Sh CAVEATS
108From time to time an
109.Nm
110device will be found which the kernel does not recognize.
111The kernel matches
112.Nm
113devices to device drivers based on identifiers which each device
114provides.
115For example, this device:
116.Pp
117joy0 at isapnp0 "Creative SB16 PnP, CTL7001, PNPB02F, Game" port 0x200/8
118.Pp
119This joystick calls itself by the two names
120.Dq CTL7001
121and
122.Dq PNPB02F .
123The latter is a standard name (which the kernel automatically recognizes),
124but
125.Dq CTL7001
126is a vendor-specific name which needs to be added to a table.
127Unfortunately,
128some devices advertise only their vendor-specific name; for instance:
129.Pp
130"PnP Sound Chip, @P@1001, , " at isapnp0 port 0x200/8 not configured
131.Pp
132Testing will show that this device is actually a joystick.
133To resolve the issue, the actual name
134.Dq @P@1001
135has to be entered into the database found in
136.Pa /sys/dev/isa/pnpdevs
137and a new kernel must be built.
138Then the device will probe like this:
139.Pp
140joy0 at isapnp0 "PnP Sound Chip, @P@1001, , " port 0x200/8
