Upgraded to: 2.6.32.7-37.fc12.i686.PAE

Still no joy. Plugging in the meter gives:

Feb 4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: new full speed USB device
using ohci_hcd and address 2
Feb 4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: New USB device found,

Feb 4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: New USB device strings:

Feb 4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Feb 4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new interface
driver usbtmc

But "cat /dev/usbtmc0" gives:
cat: /dev/usbtmc0: Connection timed out

And in the logs:
Feb 4 08:27:35 localhost kernel: usbtmc 4-1:1.0: Unable to read data,
error -110

The very old driver still works:

Feb 4 08:31:02 localhost kernel: USBTMC: MKDEV
Feb 4 08:31:02 localhost kernel: USBTMC: CDEV_ADD f900000 1
Feb 4 08:31:02 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new interface
driver USBTMC

[root@mc22 usbtmc-module]# cat /dev/usbtmc0
Minor Number Manufacturer Product Serial Number
001 KEITHLEY INSTRUMENTS 2100 Multimeter 1160791
