Not yet.  I've made a lot of progress using the Handspring Mini-HOWTO
at tldp.org, but still have yet to get it working.  I've got a list of
the modules I need to load:

    modprobe  visor
    modprobe  usb-uhci
    modprobe  usb-ohci

and I updated my hotplug and hotplug-base rpms to the latest I
could find (2003_08_05).  I am definitely getting farther than
I was, but I end up with this error message:

Dec 31 14:30:11 jelly usb.agent[6752]: ... no modules for USB product 830/60/100
You're not the only one who has it working, though, so I know it is
possible.  Right now, I'm setting aside the problem until I get my
month end and year end finance junk done :-).

Thanks for the list of what it took to get it working for you.
I'm sure it'll be helpful when I get a chance to get back to it.


I got a bit distracted playing with upgrading my gateway to KRUD 9.0,
finding out that my very old video card does *not* work any longer
under the new XFree86, playing around with Knoppix to see if that
could grok my card better (that failed, too), etc.  So tons of 
fun, but not a lot of forward progress.

Take care,

Liz
