       CRDA acts as the udev helper for communication between the kernel and
       userspace for regulatory compliance. It relies on nl80211 for communication.
+
       CRDA is intended to be run only through udev communication from the kernel.
+      To use it under NixOS, add
+
+        services.udev.packages = [ pkgs.crda ];
+
+      to the system configuration.
