May be this link may help:

You are need place kernel-patch in portage tree for "visor" module or write this message to kernel developers.

1-st solution very easy, but 2-nd is correctly.

Thank you,
With best regards,

This device is supported by default in 2.6. Is there anything preventing you from switching?

Alternatively this patch will help:
