 .Sh NAME
 .Nm uftdi
-.Nd USB support for serial adapters based on the FTDI family of USB
-serial adapter chips.
+.Nd Future Technology Devices International USB to serial UART driver
 .Sh SYNOPSIS
-To compile this driver into the kernel,
-place the following lines in your
-kernel configuration file:
-.Bd -ragged -offset indent
 .Cd "device usb"
 .Cd "device ucom"
 .Cd "device uftdi"
-.Ed
 .Pp
-Alternatively, to load the driver as a
-module at boot time, place the following line in
-.Xr loader.conf 5 :
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-uftdi_load="YES"
-.Ed
+In
+.Xr rc.conf 5 :

 .Sh DESCRIPTION
 The
 .Nm
-driver provides support for various serial adapters based on the
-following FTDI chips:
-.Pp
-.Bl -bullet -compact

-FT8U100AX
-.It
-FT8U232AM

-.It
-FT2232H
-.It
-FT4232H
-.It
-FT230X
-.El
-.Pp
+driver supports FTDI USB to serial UART devices.
+If the appropriate hardware is detected,
+the driver will be loaded automatically by
+.Xr devmatch 8 .
+If
+.Xr devmatch 8
+is not available, load the driver manually in
+.Xr rc.conf 5
+or with
+.Xr kldload 8
+at runtime.
 The device is accessed through the
 .Xr ucom 4
 driver which makes it behave like a
 .Xr tty 4 .
 .Pp
+Call out through this interface with applications like
+.Xr cu 1
+or
+.Xr tip 1 .

+.Sh IOCTLS
 Many of the supported chips provide additional functionality
 such as bitbang mode and the MPSSE engine for serial bus emulation.
