[Gllug] palm zire

[Sean Burlington]

Hi all,
	I just went out and bought myself a new palm pilot - I know people have 
been runing these on Linux for years so I figured I wouldn't have too 
may problems...

But there seems to be very little documentation out there (and it's not 
quite working)

I'm running Debian/testing

logs from using the visor module

and prom the usbserial module

Oct 25 21:20:35 sean kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-1, assigned 
address 13
Oct 25 21:20:35 sean kernel: usb.c: USB device 13 (vend/prod 0x830/0x70) 
is not claimed by any active driver.

Oct 25 21:20:36 sean usbmgr[745]: USB device isn't matched the configuration

I am guessing that the message

"USB device isn't matched the configuration"

is indicating a problem


the resources I have found so far make no mention of this problem

http://usbvisor.sourceforge.net/index.php3
http://www.linuxpda.com/visor/howto/v0.6/t1.html
http://www.redbug.uklinux.net/palm/index.html


any help much appreciated
