Rene,

Another question for you: Did you have to create a special udev rule file?
I did, but mine of course isn't completely working (works first sync attempt
after boot, but not subsequent sync attempts).  I put my rule into
/etc/udev/rules.d/10-custom.rules, and it contains just this one line:

BUS=="usb", SYSFS{product}=="Palm Handheld*", KERNEL=="ttyUSB[13579]",
> SYMLINK+="pilot", MODE="0666"



Oh and I had to add my user to the "uucp" UNIX group, as there is something
that causes those /dev files to be be owned by root and group of uucp.
