I have a Palm m130 and have no problame syncing using Jpilot (eg.
pilot-sync). I had to upgrade to a more recent version of both
pilot-link and Jpilot since the distro had an older version. I'm using
Jpilot 0.99.5 and  pilot-link 0.11.7.
If you have any trouble, try pulling down the latest versions of both.
