+Additional information for Fedora pilot-link users
+==================================================
+
+pilot-link-0.12.2-10.fc8 and later versions are configured to enable 
+the use of libusb for console users - permissions are now handled by
+PolicyKit. For more information on libusb see README.libusb.
+
+pilot-link libusb support is relatively new and may still be 
+incompatible with some handheld devices. If you experience such a
+problem you may want to try the older "visor module" USB method 
+described below. If possible please report device incompatibility to:
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=280251
+
+
+Visor module setup
+------------------
+
+The Visor module is a backwards compatibility solution to expose the USB
+connection of newer Palm handhelds as a serial device, which is what
+older versions of pilot-link and dependent packages require to work.
+
+Unfortunately this solution is inherently imperfect when used with udev
+(as Fedora does) - you may have to tweak your individual setup.
+
+1) disable libusb: remove (or comment out the contents) of
+/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-visor
+
+2) Configure udev to detect the Palm and create /dev/pilot: copy
+60-pilot.rules from /usr/share/doc/pilot-link/udev/ to /etc/udev/rules.d/
+
+3) Configure permissions so that a console user can access /dev/pilot:
+copy 60-pilot.perms from /usr/share/pilot-link/udev/ to
+/etc/security/console.perms.d/
+
+For a discussion of the inherent problems related to the Visor module,
+see:
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=158809
+
+
+Old serial (non-USB) handhelds
+------------------------------
+
+Older serial (non-USB) handhelds can be directly addressed by pilot link
+on their serial port (e.g. /dev/ttyS0) or /dev/pilot can be symlinked to
+the serial port.
