I use Red Carpet to keep my system up-to-date (although I haven't
upgraded to RH 8.0 yet) and I have the following (pilot)packages
installed:
gnome-pilot-0.1.69-1.ximian.1
pilot-link-0.11.5-4.ximian.1
xpilot-4.4.3-5
gnome-pilot-conduits-0.10-1.ximian.1
evolution-pilot-1.2.0-1.ximian.1
pilot-link-devel-0.11.5-4.ximian.1
gnome-pilot-applet-0.1.69-1.ximian.1
gnome-pilot-devel-0.1.69-1.ximian.1

Do you mean creating a device from the Pilot link section in the Gnome
Control Panel?
When I click the Pilot Link I first get the wizard and when I close that
I have 4 tabs:
Pilots / Devices / conduits / Advanced
in devices I can press the add button which opens a window (Device
Settings) with the following fields:
Name: 'Set to Cradle'           should be: usb?
Port: 'set to /dev/pilot'       should be /dev/ttyUSB1?
Speed 'set to 57600'            should be 115200?
Timeout 'set to 2'              ??
Type: 'Serial / USB / IrDA / Network'   should be USB


Or can I set this with the Wizard? It appears to me that I can (the
window looks the same)

But when I close this window I get an error about permissions, should I
run the wizard as root?

Thanks for your help so far!
