DESCRIPTION

The uvisor driver provides support for the Handspring Visor, a Palmpilot compatible PDA. 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 Visor on the HotSync port.

HISTORY

The uvisor driver was adopted from NetBSD 1.5 in August 2002. This man- ual page was adopted from NetBSD by Tom Rhodes <trhodes@FreeBSD.org> at that time.

BUGS

The code to provide multiple ucom instances has not yet been ported from NetBSD. It's unclear whether this driver works in its current state. DragonFly 3.5 March 10, 2000 DragonFly 3.5
