I think, unfortunately, he actually means "I know what I want, and you should know what I want, and I shouldn't have to explicitly say what I wants, because everyone has the same background and experiences that I do, so you all know what I mean without my saying it, right?" After reading other responses in this massive thread, I come to a few conclusions: 1) He wants auto-mounting of the inserted media, in the manner of Microsoft Windows. I don't know how he expects to handle unmounting. 2) Apparently many Linux desktop environments offer this service, although nobody currently responding to this thread knows how they do this. It's voodoo. 3) My own previous response, coming from a no-desktop-environment viewpoint, was premature. Everything I said was correct only in my own subset of the Debian world, where I use things that I understand and not voodoo desktop environments that nobody understands.
