Now that's always a good opener :)

Weird.  The first thing to do is to start 'gpilotd' from a terminal
window.  That should let you see some messages indicating why the
conduit is running into problems.  To do this, remove the applet from
the panel (the little 'sync' icon that changes colour when syncing),
then open a terminal window and run '/usr/libexec/gpilotd', or
'/usr/bin/gpilotd'.  It might live somewhere else on your distribution,
I guess.

The other information that will be relevant is to tell us which
version/package of the following components you have installed:
gnome-pilot
evolution
evolution-data-server
pilot-link

That should be a good start.
