+SoundBlaster family (and compatibles) audio device driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "sb0 at isa? port 0xPPP irq X drq Y"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm sb
+driver provides support for the SoundBlaster, SoundBlaster Pro,
+SoundBlaster 16, and hardware register-level compatible audio cards.
+.Pp
+The SoundBlaster series are half-duplex cards, capable of 8- and 16-bit
+audio sample recording and playback at rates up to 44.1kHz (depending on
+the particular model).
+.Pp
+The base I/O port address is usually jumper-selected to either 0x220 or
+0x240 (newer cards may provide software configuration, but this driver
+does not directly support them--you must configure the card for its I/O
+addresses with other software). The SoundBlaster takes 16 I/O ports.
+For the SoundBlaster and SoundBlaster Pro, the IRQ and DRQ channels are
+jumper-selected. For the SoundBlaster 16, the IRQ and DRQ channels are
+set by this driver to the values specified in the config file. The IRQ
+must be selected from the set {5,7,9,10}.
+.Pp
+.Sh BUGS
+The driver has not been extensively tested on original SoundBlaster,
+SoundBlaster 16, or newer cards.
+.Pp
+The FM synthesizer, joystick and MIDI port interfaces are not supported.
