No, unfortunatly... I cannot access the pilot anymore. Are there some 
access rights to set ? I used :
>chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB1
but I don't imagine doing this each time I want to sync.

I've also noticed that the pilot is disconnected automaticaly after a 
certain period. Here is the log :
--
Mar 22 16:41:37 mirv kernel: usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 11
Mar 22 16:41:37 mirv kernel: visor ttyUSB0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS 
converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0
Mar 22 16:41:37 mirv kernel: visor ttyUSB1: Handspring Visor / Palm OS 
converter now disconnected from ttyUSB1
Mar 22 16:41:37 mirv kernel: visor 4-1:1.0: device disconnected

At this point, I cannot explain why it worked once. Maybe does it comes 
from the way usb devices are managed on this computer...

Anyway, thank for your help, Matt !
