This has nothing to do with the visor or other usb-serial drivers. It
looks like you have either a flaky USB connection, or a power issue on
your USB hub. Either way, the device keeps disconnecting itself
electronically (nothing Linux can do about that) and then reconnecting
itself. Not good.

Is this connected to a powered hub? If not, I'd recommend using one, or
getting a new keyboard/mouse as this is on the fritz.
