+Firmware
+--------
+
+Some devices supported by libsigrok need a firmware to be uploaded before the
+device can be used. 
+
+The default location where libsigrok expects the firmware files is:
+
+  $prefix/share/sigrok-firmware
+
+($prefix is usually /usr/local or /usr, depending on your ./configure options)
+
