First you need to check the device ID (usbdevs -v) and make sure
there's a relevant entry in sys/dev/usb/usbdevs. If necessary, add
one and run 'make'.

Then look at an existing driver that you think might be a reasonably
close match and see how USB_VENDOR_xx and USB_PRODUCT_xx are matched,
you can then try adding the device.

*If* it's sufficiently similar it might just work...
