Description of problem:
I can't sync my palm on a new fedora install (works fine on other systems)

I've attributed the error to the kernel module as an error message
appears in the logs without running any further software

usb.agent[26866]: missing kernel or user mode driver visor


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.22-1.2188.nptl

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.plug palm pilot into usb port
2.hit sync button on palm
3.error message appears in logs
4.kpilot will not sync (palm times out)
    

Actual Results:  nothing much - the palm times out 

Expected Results:  expected - no error in logs

kpilot should sync 

Additional info:


I've tried various options for the pilot device

/dev/ttyUSB0
/dev/ttyUSB1
/dev/usb/ttyUSB0
/dev/usb/ttyUSB1

all chmod 666

/var/log/messages (when plugging in the palm and hitting the hotsync
button - this error occurs even if no palm pilot software is running)

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
