NAME
uvisor - USB support for the PalmOS based PDAs
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
kernel configuration file:
device uvisor
device ucom
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
following line in loader.conf(5):
uvisor_load="YES"
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.

HISTORY
The uvisor driver was adopted from NetBSD 1.5 in August 2002. This
manual page was adopted from NetBSD by Tom Rhodes 〈trhodes@FreeBSD.org〉
at that time.
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.
