NAME
spic -- Sony Programmable I/O Controller device driver
SYNOPSIS
device spic
DESCRIPTION
The spic driver allows using moused(8) to drive the Sony Vaio Jogdial device found on several Sony Vaio models. It works by mapping the for-
ward, backwards, up, and down inputs to ``l'', ``r'', ``u'', and ``d'', respectively. From that a program reading the Jogdial can decide
what to do. Some actions might include scrolling, mimicking mouse buttons, launching applications, or other useful things.
SEE ALSO

HISTORY
The spic device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 4.6.
