Automounting is strictly done via udisks and udisks2 which work with udev (udev-classic, eudev, or systemd-udev) with modern DEs. There are scripts than can automount devices using the classic method that can be inserted into the startup routine of a WM though, or you can assign them to be mounted at boot with fstab.

For the longest time, I simply used a window manager. In the beginning, it was FVWM, but later I took a liking to IceWM. As opposed to a full-blown Desktop Environment, I liked the speed and simplicity of a window manager. The only drawback is that window manager doesn't seem to do automounting of plugged-in devices. I went looking for a solution, and found this page: https://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Automounting It says, among other things, that udev can be configured to handle automounting. That's nice, but since systemd has polluted udev beyond repair, I'm wondering if Devuan can be set up to handle it better, perhaps with vdev. Or is there a better way? I believe that people who are opposed to systemd are similar to me - we prefer simplicity over complex solutions, and are not impressed by bells and whistles. Thus, I think people who are attracted to Devuan would be a good market for a simple desktop based on IceWM. Just something to think about. Hope you are all having a nice weekend. - Robert _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
