Well, the kernel device that caused that device to be created was
removed from the system (that's what happens with palm devices.) So
udev _has_ to delete the device node as if it didn't, it would be a
security problem.
Just have udev create the node you want for your pilot, and then you
don't have to do anything by hand :)
thanks,
