Here is some more information. I have solved part of the problem but not the
rest of it.
I just rebooted this computer to start from a clean slate. I type kpilotDaemon
at the command line and get this:

However, kpilotDaemon is now running, according to the output from ps.
I then type kpilot at the command line, select "File" - "Restore",
and get this
in the on-screen display:

I hit the hotsync button on my Palm and get this in the on-screen display:

I then sit and wait and nothing happens for a minute or two, then my Palm times
out and I get this in the on-screen display:
QUOTE:

And that's it.

I have the same model Palm and I have used it with
FC6...unfortunately....i haven't synced in a while...for lack of
need....i fine with only having the info on my Palm. IF you cannot get
this to work within a few days. I will give it a try on my end...but
you have me a bit worried that something may go wrong and I may loose
data.
About the files you spoke of. I do do have them, from `locate`:
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/etc/settings/.qt_plugins_3.3rc.lock
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/etc/settings/qt_plugins_3.3rc
However, I can't seem to associate an RPM file with them.
Peace.
