Troubles with KPilot

[Gerald I. Evenden]

I am having rouble trying to link my Z22 pdf with dapper kubuntu.

Executing KPilot I get the following log:

Version: KPilot 4.6.0 (blivit)
Version: pilot-link 0.11.8
Version: KDE 3.5.2
Version: Qt 3.3.6

HotSync Log

13:39:32 Starting the KPilot daemon ...
13:39:32 Daemon status is `not running'
13:39:32 Pilot device /dev/pilot does not exist. Probably it is a USB device 
and will appear during a HotSync.
13:39:44 Device link ready.
13:39:56 Unable to read system information from Pilot
13:41:06 Changed username to `gie'.
13:41:06 Next HotSync will be: HotSync. Please press the HotSync button.
13:41:20 Trying to open device /dev/pilot...

13:41:32 Next sync will be a Fast Sync. Please press the HotSync button.
13:41:32 Next HotSync will be: FastSync. Please press the HotSync button.
13:41:52 Unable to read system information from Pilot
13:42:17 Trying to open device /dev/pilot...
13:42:17 Device link ready.
13:42:46 Unable to read system information from Pilot

with the progress  bar stopped at 30%.

I have a suspicion that some daemon is not installed but I have not idea which 
or what one.

Comments greatly appreciated.
