I should have added: a workaround is to stop hald, restart gnome-pilot, and then restart hald:

In a terminal window:
---------------------
sudo /etc/init.d/hal stop
killall gpilotd
/usr/bin/gpilotd &
sudo /etc/init.d/hal start

If gpilotd doesn't find hal running when gpilotd starts, it falls back to polling usbfs.
