/dev/pilot is a link to the device file your Clie connects through, e.g.:

[john at starfleet john]$ ls -l /dev/pilot
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 12 Feb 25  2004 /dev/pilot -> /dev/ttyUSB0

"visor" is the kernel module that allows your Clie to communicate with 
your computer.  It needs to be loaded in order for this communication to 
occur.  Ideally hotplug should load it automatically when the Clie 
connects.

Check that the visor module is loading, e.g. "lsmod|grep visor"

If it isn't, load it manually with "modprobe visor" and try again.
