Me too -- but I have Handspring Visor Deluxe!

For me, I actually built gnome-pilot, gnomecal, and gnome-pilot-conduits from
source

I'm with you on this -- using USB.

In the gnomeCC, under Peripherals/Pilot Conduits I see:
Backup, Expense, File, Memo, SendMail and Test conduits -- but nothing for
Calendar or Addressbook!

and what do I need to do to 'see' the other conduits in the GnomeControlCenter?
The actual libaddress_conduit* files are in /usr/local/lib/gnome-pilot-conduits
directory.  I think they show up here because I built from source and have most
of this stuff going into /usr/local.  However, I have tried moving them to
/usr/lib without success.  I have set an environment variable:
GNOME_PATH=/usr:/usr/local  as someone suggested.  But I haven't figured out how
to get GNOME (or gnome-pilot, or whoever...) to find these new conduits.  

Any ideas?
