I'm not sure this matters, as I can not get it to work no matter WHAT I do - seems to be my fate; I start the thread and end being one of the few that can't get what I asked to work - but I digress - I noticed that the USB icon is not present in the "taskbar", is it only there when it's NOT the host?

Just got it to work doing all that you did EXCEPT I had to go to xterm and put it in host mode. I'm thinking you're running something I'm not maybe?
