32 .Nd Sony Programmable I/O Controller
35 .Cd "wsmouse* at spic?"
39 computers have an I/O controller that handles various interface
40 devices, e.g., the jog dial. The
42 driver provides support for some of these.
44 The actual protocol used by the
46 seems to vary a lot between different models; this driver has only
47 been tested on the Vaio SRX77.
51 driver handles the jog dial and its associated buttons. They are turned
54 which can the be accessed in the normal way. The jog dial works as a
55 scroll button, and clicking it generates a click with the "middle" button.
68 driver only works with some hardware configurations.
