<br/>> I wasn't able to do anything more than you describe here, too. Due to

<br/>I think Till got the best results so far, he has a touchscreen that gave some repeatable results. (tslib might be the thing to try for touchscreens)
<br/>
<br/>The mouse is the current biggest limitation for the rest of us. By tweaking things in xorg.conf I got the left mouse button to work (verifiable by clicking it, it brings the edit icon on the home screen). However moving the mouse didn't work :/ Then I got busy with other stuff (making the maemo.org server move happen).
<br/>
<br/>But network (usb) can be made to work, so installing and running things is doable from command line. However without the mouse you can't do anything.
