It means /dev/pilot wasn't found, and that you probably should check 
and verify your udev rules in /etc/udev/rules.d/ and ensure that they 
contain the right line for your Palm device. That line should look 
like:

KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", ATTRS{product}=="Palm Handheld*|Handspring 
*|palmOne Handheld", SYMLINK+="pilot"

This should be all on one line, of course.
