I was trying to say you needed to make the chmod on the device but was not sure if the
/dev/pilot link actually needed it or not but know it would do no hard to do both.
I did my M515 and went for the direct /dev/ttyUSB1 , in my case Evolution was my intended sync applicatiom.
Sods law had you only doign the one it did not matter and missing the other but that's life.

Sorry, I don't understand, I am a newbie to this. Actually I sort of understand, but not fully
Since you have a Tungsten, the following should work for you (as root):
chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB* ln -s /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/pilot
That's all that should be needed. You can check your connectivity by doing the following:
ps auwx | grep gpil | grep -v grep | awk '{print "kill " $2}' | sh pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l
The first command will kill off any running gpilotd processes, which will prevent pilot-xfer from picking up when you issue the second command, which will print a list of all the databases on your handheld.
