Probably a permissions issue.

Kill kpilot and kpilotDaemon. Attach handheld. Hit HotSync button. Let sync 
time out. Now look in /var/log/messages for the connect and detach; this will 
tell you what devices were created. Now, hit HotSync again, use ls /dev or 
similar to see that the device nodes are created. Let sync time out again. 
Remember device name that is used. Type, but don't hit 
enter, "pilot-xfer -p /dev/device-name-used --list"; hit HotSync button, 
count to three, hit enter.
