it's an issue only if the ID of the Clie that you have doesn't match the
ID listed for the ones that it has

ok - assuming that you have no other USB devices connected...

when at rest (not syncing)

ls -l /dev/ttyUSB* /dev/pilot

should return nothing - they don't exist

when you press the sync button

ls -l /dev/ttyUSB* /dev/pilot

should show the devices as configured and KPilot/JPilot should see them
(actually, they are probably configured to only look at /dev/pilot)

if it fails somehow, try running the command (while sync is supposedly
active) to see if they are present.
