Bug #108512, first reported on 2007-04-2
This is the bug I am talking about, and it is occurring on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy 
Heron 05-25-2008.

This is on a fresh install of the Hardy Heron final release with all
upgrades. I'm connecting my Sony Clie to my computer via cradle and usb.

In Hardy the gnome-pilot device settings tried:

/dev/pilot
/dev/ttyUSB0
/dev/ttyUSB1
/dev/ttyS0
and /dev/ttyS1

/dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1.

In Hardy I get no connection when I press the sync button on the cradle
(although the info appears in System->Preferences->Hardware Manager just
fine). Instead, I receive the following error dialog:

"Failed to connect using device `cradle', on port `/dev/ttyUSB0'.
Check your configuration, as you requested old-style usbserial
`ttyUSB' syncing, but do not have the usbserial `visor' kernel
module loaded. You may need to select a `usb:' device."

I can see in gnome-pilot->Devices->Edit->Device where I can select
"usb:", but using this setting fails to make any connection at all.

Before starting gnome-pilot, open a terminal and type:

sudo modprobe visor

to load the visor module. Then start gnome-pilot and initiate sync from
the cradle, as usual, and everything should work (it did for me).
