I fixed this problem some time ago, IIRC, by simply adding a file
"/etc/udev/rules.d/95-visor.rules" that has just this line:

     KERNEL="ttyUSB1",SYMLINK="pilot"

HTH... If not, I'm sure if you check Bugzilla you'll find the answer.  I
should note my wife uses a Sony Clie and not a Treo, but if your Treo
syncs on ttyUSB1, this will work.  Otherwise, just alter the KERNEL
parameter appropriately.  If you leave the symlink name as "pilot" you
won't have to fiddle as much with the gnome-pilot stuff.

In the future, shouldn't these issues go to fedora-list and not
fedora-devel-list?
