I'm new to Fedora and am still classified have been messing around with Linux part-time for about a year but am trying to migrate fully to Linux now and can't seem to get my Palm device to sync. It connects via a USB cable and I can even tell you how it appears in the proc file system USB file when it is activated but how do I tell the software that it's there? This is only one of a few things that is hindering my desire to completely eliminate Windows from my computer (I haven't liked Microsoft for years). Any help here?

1) Make sure you have the pilot-link package installed and up to date.
2) Make sure it works: do 'pilot-dlpsh -p usb:' and play around. Check
the man pages for the various pilot-* commands.
3) If you want a GUI front-end pick one (e.g. kpilot, gnome-pilot) and
install it.
4) Configure the front-end to use 'usb:' as the Pilot device.

Well, I tested your examples and all of the things you suggested to check worked just fine except that none of the front-ends are able to connect with it. I can connect with it manually using the 'pilot-dlpsh' command just fine. I've tried 'gnome-pilot' & 'jpilot' with no success at all.
