No special code is required -- just a minimal addition to the
ptal-init-script where 'moreWildcards' is defined. I didn't get a
concrete patch out of him and lack the hardware to test this myself
(luckily only JetDirect here :).
If you use the FreeBSD port, it should take of finding libusb etc, so
the above should be the only change required.
