Hi Steve,
Is the documention you mean this;
http://usbvisor.sourceforge.net/Handspring-Visor-mini-HOWTO
Did you install the new kernel and it runs okay? Did you make the
usb serial a module or compile it into the kernel? If you compiled it into
the kernel then that is why modprobe wouldn't find it. You can do "cet
/proc/bus/usb/drivers" (once you mount the usbdevfs file system) to see if
the driver is in the kernel. It will also appear here once you load the
module. You may need to add this line to your /etc/conf.modules (but I
don't think so as you've obviously got some usb modules loaded - or again,
are they in the kernel?);
keep
path[usb]=/lib/modules/`uname -r`
The HOWTO above is missing the "make modules_install" line. This
is a reason why the USB Guide refers you to the Kernel HOWTO. That should
generally be correct
(http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Kernel-HOWTO.html). There you will find out
about modules and other interesting stuff.
If you still have problems can you include the contents of
/proc/bus/usb/drivers, /proc/bus/usb/devices and your .config file for
your kernel build?
Good luck!!
regards,
Stephen.
