I'm assuming you have just installed the standard stuff from karmic
then.

I believe there is a bug in the dbus activation file. Find the
file /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.synce.SyncEngine.service, you'll
need to edit this as root.

Where it says

Exec=/usr/bin/sync-engine

change it to

Exec=/usr/bin/synce-sync-engine

Open two terminal windows. In one run 

synce-sync-engine --logfile=~/.synce/sync-engine.log 

This will appear to do nothing but just leave it there.

Attach the device. In the other window run synce-pstatus to make sure
its connected properly. Then run synce-list-partnerships. Disconnect the
device. In the first window press ctrl and C.

Send the output from synce-pstatus, synce-list-partnerships and the file
~/.synce/sync-engine.log

Looks like you're picking up different versions of things from different
