Hi,
unfortunately I can help you much because the log doesn't tell me much.
I write you however,  because i have a m515 and it took me lots of pain 
to get it to sync (and still does sometimes)
Few points I found important:
   * make sure you have a recent kernel (2.4.19 or 2.4.20)
   * make sure you have the right version (meaning with usb support) of 
pilot-link, I run unstable, so check out the pilot-link webpage for 
which version starts to have good usb support.
   * If you compile the kernel, try adding verbose (or debug, I don't 
remeber) usb, so more info will be logged.

I hope this helps you somehow,
cheers
