This depends on which version of PalmOS. Handsprings tend to sync well
with the SuSE version of jpilot and pilot-link. The Palm mxxx series
needs the later versions. You can easily download and install them from
the jpilot and pilot-link sites:
http://www.jpilot.org/
http://www.pilot-link.org/
I personally prefer to build them from sources.
