Hi!
I bought one of these nice Palm handhelds with integrated camera.
I was running 2.4.20 kernel at that time and I modified the following files:
- drivers/usb/serial/visor.h
added #define PALM_ZIRE71_ID 0x0060
- drivers/usb/serial/visor.c
added id_table and id_table_combined definitions.
You have both modified from 2.4.20 files here:
http://bulmalug.net/~pacoros/articulos/visor.c
http://bulmalug.net/~pacoros/articulos/visor.h
They were working fine with pilot-link software.
Some weeks ago I compiled a 2.4.22-ac1 kernel and I saw that a new version of visor was released.
I haven't been able to make my Zire 71 work with this kernel version.
The trick of adding PALM_ZIRE71_ID definition does not work anymore and I get a Oops! when the module tries to be removed.
Here is the log:

It seems there's some problem at khubd (I have my handheld plugged in a usb hub)
Is Palm Zire 71 going to be officially supported?
I've been googling and looking for visor project and seems to be completely integrated in kernel tree and no news or movement is appreciated at usbvisor web site.
Best greetings.

This device has been supported for a while now, just upgrade your kernel
please.

This device should just work with this kernel, the driver does not need
to be modified.

The usbvisor web site is dead as the maintainer for it has disappeared.
The kernel driver is kept quite up to date.
