FILES

The device can process compressed data (Huffman pixel difference method) to reduce the USB payload. To generate the compressed data, the driver needs to load a Huffman table, which is stored in the following binary file:

/etc/firmware/udl_huffman

If the Huffman table can't be loaded, the driver will fall back to uncompressed mode.

HISTORY

The udl driver first appeared in OpenBSD 4.6.
