Well, as you were expecting, it claims it now and i'm able to open
the port:
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2,
assigned device number 10
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: Manufacturer: Palm, Inc.
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: Product: Palm Handheld
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: SerialNumber: blehblehbleh
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: usbserial.c: Handspring Visor converter detected
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: visor.c: Handspring Visor: Number of ports: 2
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: visor.c: Handspring Visor: port 1, is for Generic
use and is bound to ttyUSB0
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: visor.c: Handspring Visor: port 2, is for HotSync
use and is bound to ttyUSB1
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: usbserial.c: Handspring Visor converter now attached
to ttyUSB0 (or usb/tts/0 for devfs)
May 8 15:36:49 tachyon kernel: usbserial.c: Handspring Visor converter now attached
to ttyUSB1 (or usb/tts/1 for devfs)
_but_ i still can not get any data to transfer between the two on either
the first or second port. After about a minute it eventually times out
on the palm side:
May 8 15:37:09 tachyon kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 66
May 8 15:37:09 tachyon kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 67
==> /var/log/messages <==
May 8 15:37:10 tachyon kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 10
May 8 15:37:10 tachyon kernel: usbserial.c: Handspring Visor converter
now disconnected from ttyUSB0
May 8 15:37:10 tachyon kernel: usbserial.c: Handspring Visor converter
now disconnected from ttyUSB1
I looked at the original debug messages
(http://blinky-lights.org/palm-usb.txt) but can't quite figure out if I
should change any of the other values in the header. Would one assume
that palm has vendor specific request codes that need to be known before
this will work? If so, I'd be happy to do the leg-work if I knew
exactly what to ask for :)
I'd be more than happy to offer any info necessary to get this supported
as I'm having no luck in freebsd either.
Thanks for your time,
-Derrick
