[arch-general] Automounting internal devices in Gnome

2010-03-04 Thread Flavio Costa
Hi, Before Gnome 2.28 (I've been using Arch since 2.22, I guess), Gnome used to be able to mount my internal devices (in this case some NTFS partitions I have, and yes use Windows sometimes...) automatically (I just had to grant a permission on a neat GTK interface). I guess that magic used to
