Did you look at the list of supported Linux USB devices linked off of www.linux-usb.org? And the linux-usb-devel mailing list is probably the better place for this kind of discussion.
If your device looks like a USB Mass storage device, then a kernel driver modification might be needed. Otherwise you are probably better off using usbfs/libusb to talk to the device from userspace, which is what the other USB Rio devices do.
Good luck,
