I am new to this list and therefore apologize if this topic has=20
recently been discussed.  I did search the recent archives and found a=20=

couple things relative to command line but they are not working=20
properly for me.
Anyway I have just put  YDL 3.0 on my i Book and desperately want to =20
use the USB dongle.  Can anyone point me to a simple way to do it and=20
preferably would be with a GUI?
I spent hours going looking thru the system to find something and no=20
luck. I am currently using the KED desktop.  In one spot I found my USB=20=

device listed  and I think it was under info but don=92t recall the =
exact=20
title.
Utopia would be  to have it appear on the desktop like in OS X.

Have tried things like:
[root]# mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/usb  and mount -t vfat /dev/sda1=20
/mnt/flash/  but since I don=92t know command line am not sure what I am=20=

doing.
Any help or pointers in the right  direction would be greatly=20
appreciated.
