Re: Yet more visor woes...

[Christian Pearce <pearcec PacketPushers com>]

I got the source a recompiled with --enable-visor-usb=yes.  I checked the
spec for the rpm and it didn't use that config option.  I got it to sync
with the backup conduit and give it a user and id, but I am having
intermitent trouble with syncing.  But it worked.
