Troy,
I assume you've already got the overlay connected to your PC. At this
point it's just a matter of seeing if a driver for it is already installed,
and finding the right one if it is not. An easy way to check how your
machine is "seeing" a recently connected device is to disconnect the
overlay, then reconnect it, and immediately type *dmesg* at a command
prompt. This command will show that a USB device has been connected, and
also what driver it's trying to use if there is a match. Give that a whirl.
Thanks,
Brooks
