-     With "-S auto", BitForce enabled and only on linux, cgminer will attempt
-     to automatically find BitForce FPGA devices
-     Note that the computer may take some time to recognise the USB device
-     when it is first plugged in - especially if the system is slow or busy
-     (e.g. already GPU mining)
