    ----
first issue - detection at device level...
probably more than you ever wanted to know...
<http://www.reactivated.net/udevrules.php>
problem is that you have to figure out how to 'identify' your Clie and
make a rule for it which creates a device on the fly...
normally, you would create
/etc/udev/rules.d/10-udev.rules
/etc/udev/permissions.d/10-udev.permissions
this is what my Kyocera 7135 looks like...
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-udev.rules
KERNEL="ttyUSB1",SYMLINK="pilot"
# cat /etc/udev/permissions.d/10-udev.permissions
pilot*:root:usb:0666
then it should probably work with JPilot or KPilot if it's set
to /dev/pilot and you press the 'sync' button on the cradle
If you want to use gpilotd (gnome pilot - evolution...)
you would probably want to edit if your Clie isn't there...
/usr/share/gnome-pilot/devices.xml
