+KControl and Logitech mice
+==========================
+
+In combination with the udev or hotplug packages, KControl supports the
+advanced configuration of many models of Logitech mice, though regular users
+must be members of the plugdev group for this to work.
+
+Additionally, the system's kernel must be 2.6.14 or later if you are using
+udev, though earlier kernels are also supported if the hotplug package is being
+used instead. Kernel hotplugging support is essential, as is usbfs/usbdevfs if
+hotplug is being used.
+
+After installing KControl for the first time, or updating to KControl 3.4.x
+or later from an earlier package, you will need to unplug and then replug
+your mouse, in order to force udev or hotplug to grant special permissions
+to your mouse, so that KControl can perform advanced configuration.
+Rebooting or restarting udev/hotplug will of course accomplish the same
+thing.
