Support for the Zire is certainly in the 2.4.21-pre kernel series, it
is added by putting additional IDs into drivers/usb/serial/visor.c and
/drivers/usb/serial/visor.h, it might even be in the released 2.4.20 or
2.4.19 but I'm not sure.
If you were to check the current 2.4.18-24.8.0 kernel source for RH 8.0
you could see if the Zire is listed in these files and if not you could
edit them using the changes in the 2.4.21-pre kernels as a guide and
rebuild the kernel using the config-2.4.18-24.8.0 file left in /boot,
does that suggestion help?
