+
+<para>
+This section talks about using LCDproc with a roamer controller from rackable systems.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The <code>roamer</code> driver is currently working with the roamer 4.4.5 emulation protocol, 
+but can be extended to work with various other protocols.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The driver should operate most roamer displays from 4.0 thru 4.4.5 with a serial (RS-232) input. 
+Because these displays use a standardized protocol, if the protocol is
+supported by your display, it should work as expected.
+Feedback is welcome.
