@luketanti:
after connecting your drive, open xterm and report the output of the command "cat /proc/partitions".
This enlists the partitions that you could mount.

And how do I mount these? I have connected an 8GB flash drive. Is it this one "major 8 minor 0 blocks 7865855 name sda"
With the mount button in gui it does nothing

Successfully mounted a 1TB hard drive and watched a 1.0GB film. Awesome work.

@Luketanti
When you are in root xterm:
Code:

mkdir -p /media/sda
mount /dev/sda /media/sda

And you get your partition mounted in /media/sda; it should be available in file managers as well.

When you're done:
Code:

sync
umount /media/sda

If xterm says the partition is busy, close all windows and applications that use it, then retry until the command exits with no error, before you close h-e-n and disconnect your usb drive.

ok try this. reboot after installing hid scripts. connect ur mouse then start hen. select low speed mode and enumerate. wait for some time and go to the menu> kernel messages and scroll down and see if you can find ur mouse make and model being detected. if it is then u should be able to use it right away.
i tried a microsoft mouse and my wireless keyboard and mouse. i could use both together
