4.4.7 won't recognize my Kingston flash drive when I click on the floppy/cdrom selector. (forgot what it's called).
I'll put 4.4.6 back on in the meantime.
I wasn't sure what was different.

What happens if you use mount.lua from a shell?

What happens if you restart mount.app i.e.,
pkill mount.app && mount.app

I ended up putting 4.4.6 back on. I'm now trying to concentrate on testing flash and firefox. Here is another question.
Is there anyway to get rid of the processor usage and other stats info on the top upper right side of the screen? Would getting rid of this speed up the pc more? Thx for responding.

Delete the line(s) that mention "torsmo" in /home/dsl/.xinitrc to get rid of it.
It would mostly affect ram usage, since it only uses cpu when it updates the stats (every 5 secs by default IIRC)
