+The driver now has (2.4) kernel isapnp support, and
+will automatically probe for a supported board if the
+I/O base is left unspecified with comedi_config.
+However, many of
+the isapnp id numbers are unknown.  If your board is not
+recognized, please send the output of 'cat /proc/isapnp'
+(you may need to modprobe the isa-pnp module for
+/proc/isapnp to exist) so the
+id numbers for your board can be added to the driver.
+
+Otherwise, you can use the isapnptools package to configure
+your board.  Use isapnp to
+configure the I/O base and IRQ for the board, and then pass
+the same values as
+parameters in comedi_config.  A sample isapnp.conf file is included
 in the etc/ directory of Comedilib.
 
 Comedilib includes a utility to autocalibrate these boards.  The
