OK - didn't know the impact of the kernel params

# ls -l /dev/ttyUSB*
crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 188, 0 2007-07-17 09:52 /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 188, 1 2007-07-17 09:52 /dev/ttyUSB1

and from dmesg...
usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 6
usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
visor 4-2:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected
usb 4-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB0
usb 4-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1

but while the palm is using ttyUSB0/1 - I get nada...

# pilot-xfer -l -p /dev/ttyUSB1

   Listening for incoming connection on /dev/ttyUSB1...

# pilot-xfer -l -p /dev/ttyUSB0

   Listening for incoming connection on /dev/ttyUSB0...
#

but never anything else  ;-(
