uvisor — USB support for the PalmOS based PDAs

Bugs

       The  code  to  provide  multiple  ucom(4)  instances  has not yet been ported from NetBSD.  It is unclear
       whether this driver works in its current state.

Debian                                           April 26, 2017                                        UVISOR(4)

Description

       The  uvisor  driver  provides support for USB based PalmOS PDAs, like Handspring Visor, Palm Mxxx series,
       and Sony Clie.

       The device is accessed through the ucom(4) driver which makes it behave like a tty(4).   The  device  has
       several  ports  for  different  purposes,  each  of them gets its own ucom(4) device.  The attach message
       describes the purpose of each port.

       The usual Pilot tools can be used to access the attached device on the HotSync port.
