Ok, I've made it. And I use gnome-pilot-2.0.12-4.

It doesn't work. I set the device to /dev/ttyUSB1 and type to 'USB', but 
when I sync, nothing appends.

When I plug the zire, I get this in the logs :
--

uhci_hcd and address 10

That's why I use ttyUSB1. I've tried also with ttyUSB0, but it's the same.

Thanks for your help,
