Download maemo-control-usb:

Search for it exactly like it is spelled in the download page of this site.

It is better to save it to the device, then open it in the file manager.

Then, download usb-otg-plugin:

I'm (out of the blue) having the same problem with USB Control. It worked fine for over a month on my N810, even after uninstalling, reinstalling, rebooting, etc., and although I admit that I've tried just about every piece of software out there for the N810, I did recently reflash my N810 and reinstall just the few apps I wanted, and USB Control worked fine after that, too. Now? Nothing. I found the usb-otg-plugin suggestion in another thread, but I'm curious, why do you suggest installing Maemo-control-USB first? Is it necessary/required? I'm just running usb-otg-plugin without USB Control or Maemo-control-usb, and USB host mode is working just fine.
