I came to LXDE from Gnome and have much of Xfce and some of KDE installed, so I'm not sure what LXDE brings in. Debian doesn't seem to be keen on gnome-volume-manager: Package gnome-volume-manager squeeze (oldstable) (gnome): GNOME daemon to auto-mount and manage media devices 2.24.1-4: kfreebsd-amd64 kfreebsd-i386 sid (unstable) (gnome): GNOME daemon to auto-mount and manage media devices 2.24.1-3 [debports]: m68k I've settled on usbmount, but it does have issues. I haven't found any way of mounting with user write privileges or on a particular mount point other than by using fstab entries. I have one particular stick which usbmount, for no reason I can see, wants to mount as the entire drive, so again fstab seems to be the only way to get round that. It is still necessary to have root privileges to umount them. I don't particularly want a large-scale disc manager, and usbmount is old and not under development, so it isn't very satisfactory. I did look at pmount, but there was some issue there and it was long enough ago that I can't remember what it was, but I couldn't use it. No doubt I'll have another look around when I get irritated enough... -- Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
