If you like the way Ubuntu does it, you might try copying "all the
automount crap" into your gentoo box. I think it hangs off the
hotplug scripts, but I don't know the part

falling behind here.
FWIW, even mounting outside of the /mnt directory doesn't work.
Tried that trick too.

I'm not so sure about that. this will let the user mount the media,
but you still need to deal with write permissions of the media, AFAIK.
maybe if the user mounts on a directory they own,

HI,
I have attempted to get a response to e-mail, and find a Eugene (EUGLUG) meeting, to no avail.
I would like to go to WA convention, but $150 (gas or train/bus) and 2 nights motel is a bit too much. Plus I (probably) work Sunday night.
