kpilot on FC6

[Frank Cox]

I use my Palm Tungsten E to read books on.  Therefore, I load it up with books
a couple of times a year and that's the only time I plug it into my computer.

I used kpilot to copy my books the last time I did this on Fedora Core 5, but
tonight when I try the same thing with Fedora Core 6 I get this:

00:57:09 Starting the KPilot daemon ...
00:57:09 Daemon status is `not running'
00:57:09 Pilot device /dev/ttyUSB0 does not exist. Probably it is a USB device
and will appear during a HotSync.
00:57:20 Next sync will copy Handheld data to PC. Please press the HotSync
button.
00:57:20 Next HotSync will be: Copy Handheld to PC. Please press the HotSync
button.
00:57:26 Device link ready.

That's it until I hit cancel on my Palm, when I get this:

00:58:49 Unable to read system information from Pilot

Here is the relevant /var/log/messages entries:
