SYNOPSIS
     To	compile	this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
     kernel configuration file:

     following line in loader.conf(5):

DESCRIPTION
     The acpi_wmi driver provides an interface for vendor specific WMI imple-
     mentations	(e.g. HP and Acer laptops).  It	creates	/dev/wmistat%d,	which
     can be read to get	information about GUIDs	found in the system.
