REAL newbie question here:

Is there any way to get removable media to work in Linux the way it does in the 
Windows/Mac world?

It kinda bugs me that I have to unmount the cdrom just to eject it.  Case in point, if 
I accidentally hit the eject 
button on my laptop, nothing happens, and the disc is no longer accessable through 
Linux unless I reboot.  WTF? 
Isn't there some automounting feature that will take care of this?  What about 
Supermount?  What IS that, anyway?  

I'm sorry to rant, but I'm just blown away by the fact that some sort of automounting 
isn't already built-in.  If 
anyone knows some options for me, give 'em to me.  I'm eager to learn here...
