Probably, though I really advise you to use an adapter and find a shorter microUSB cable, I wouldn't trust adapters like the one you posted with a USB port like the N900's (with ports falling out and all)

MohammadAG: It didn't really seem like pinning the power kernel packages was the right way to get rid of aptitude complaining about the dependencies that hostmode-gui has to that hostmode kernel. I didn't try it but that's what I read from others. I know its a beta and all but it felt right to use the power kernel 44 instead. What do you think would be best, wait for a new package from you that has deps to power kernel or if you have an idea on something else I can do in the meantime (just to get rid of the aptitude dependency nag).

Try updating to v44 of power kernel.
You may need to install the new fcam drivers afterwards.

Guys i need your knowledge-advise here..

I had set up my N900 with Multiboot-00 Maemo omap1 kernel and 01-Power-kernel44 fixed all camera issues etc. and all seems to working perfect.

From inside Power-kernel44 i downloaded the H-e-n (USB Hostmode GUI) from application manager after restarting and booted up again normally without any issues in Power-Kernel44, i caught my AF to AF usb adapter and tried to connect to my usb stick (Sandisk SDCZ6 4gb) using the following steps:
1.High Speed Hostmode
2.Turned on 5v VBUS
3.Enumerate the Device
4.Mount it

The result i got was nothing...I can`t see my pen drive into the File Manager at all...Can someone help me on this to get it work please??!!

Thanks in advise.

PS:If i type sudo fdisk -l in the xterm ask me for a password...?!! ;-?

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release
 

As I've discussed it with joerg_rw, we came to a conclusion that we could depend on either one of the kernels (dpkg supports multiple depends with a |), then just read /proc/driver/musb_hdrc and check if that has the compatible string, that way, you can use any kernel you want.

Hello Mohammad,

as you are uploading hostmode-gui 0.2.4., could you please clarify your answer : What do we have to do ?

Wait for the packages files on the repo to be updated,
Or
keep downloanding packages one by one and do a dpkg --ignore,
Or
any other proposal of yours... ?
