+ * \section Sec_KnownIssues Known Issues:
+ *
+ * \par On Linux machines, the CDC bootloader is unstable or inaccessible.
+ * A change to the \c ModemManager module in many Linux distributions causes
+ * this module to try to take control over inserted CDC devices, corrupting the
+ * datastream. A UDEV rule is required to prevent this.
+ * See <a href=https://groups.google.com/d/msg/lufa-support/CP9cy2bc8yo/kBqsOu-RBeMJ>here</a> for resolution steps.
+ *
+ * \par On Linux machines, the CDC bootloader is inaccessible.
+ * On many Linux systems, non-root users do not have automatic access to newly
+ * inserted CDC devices. Root privileges or a UDEV rule is required to gain
+ * access.
+ * See <a href=https://groups.google.com/d/msg/lufa-support/CP9cy2bc8yo/kBqsOu-RBeMJ>here</a> for resolution steps.
+ *
+ * \par After loading an application, it is not run automatically on startup.
+ * Some USB AVR boards ship with the BOOTRST fuse set, causing the bootloader
+ * to run automatically when the device is reset. In most cases, the BOOTRST
+ * fuse should be disabled and the HWBE fuse used instead to run the bootloader
+ * when needed.
