Visor, USB, 4.9

Has anyone had any luck getting a Handspring Visor
to connect via USB to FreeBSD 4.9 on the ucom
interface?

I had it working just fine through ugen on
FreeBSD 4.8 but after a cvsup and a switch to ucom
it fails.  I've tried it as a user and as root so I dont think
it is a permissions problem.

Literally, the only thing that changed in my setup
was to change ugen to ucom.

I get IO errors of the form:

pconn_usb_open: Can't get information about USB device.
ioctl(USB_GET_DEVICEINFO): Inappropriate ioctl for device
 

thanks!
