What version of HAL does openSUSE 11 use?  I had the same symptoms on my 
Gentoo system. It turns out that HAL 0.5.11 removed the interface that 
gnome-pilot uses to detect palm devices.  The problem has been fixed 
already in CVS, if you are comfortable building packages from source.  
Otherwise you might want to raise a bug against openSUSE to patch their 
gnome-pilot package.

FYI, this is the gentoo bug report I raised: 
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231678

I don't know if anyone has plans for a 2.0.17 release, but it might be 
worthwhile doing soon before all the other distros run into this problem.

Cheers
Bruce
