@Alex,

are you trying to use the visor module? If so, try unloading it manually (it is blacklisted by default, so it's not necessary unless you specifically changed it) and using "usb:" as the port in Jpilot, as the others said.

I've been using it forever on other Palm devices (Tungsten E, E2 and T|X) and it always worked for me with no fuss. It's been reported to work for others all over the web, and that should include the Treo 650.

@Florin,

The visor module was blacklisted for a reason. Note that messing with udev rules is an ugly workaround that doesn't work in every case (each device creates ttyUSB's in a different way, and it's very hard to create general rules to cover all possibilities, especially when it's no longer necessary to do so). AFAICT, this method is no longer supported or recommended.

Please see my comment to Alex above, and try the suggested solution.

I think this bug should be marked as Invalid, unless there is an exceptional issue with this particular device when using libusb, in which case information should be posted here.
