+		            Under the terms of the GNU General Public License
+
+	friq.c is a low-level protocol driver for the Freecom "IQ"
+	parallel port IDE adapter.   Early versions of this adapter
+	use the 'frpw' protocol.
+	
+	Freecom uses this adapter in a battery powered external 
+	CD-ROM drive.  It is also used in LS-120 drives by
+	Maxell and Panasonic, and other devices.
+
+	The battery powered drive requires software support to
+	control the power to the drive.  This module enables the
+	drive power when the high level driver (pcd) is loaded
+	and disables it when the module is unloaded.  Note, if
+	the friq module is built in to the kernel, the power
+	will never be switched off, so other means should be
+	used to conserve battery power.
