Care to give us the relavent sections of your /var/log/syslog and dmesg?

What software are you useing to connect to your Palm?  What device name
have you told the software to use?  Its been a while since I hooked up
my palm (the data hasn't changed in 6 months), and I've reinstalled
Debian since so don't have it set up.  However, I remember that in
gnome-pilot there was some confusion over the actual device to tell it.
If I was too specific, and the kernel alternated between two device
names, it couldn't find it the second time.
