That is because you do not have the sid repositories listed in your sources.list. However, the thunar-volman package requires Thunar version 0.5.1 or later, and the Etch Thunar is only at 0.4.0. You could try installing Thunar from the etch-backports (it has version 0.9.0) and then installing thunar-volman from Lenny. To do that you need to add backports and testing repository lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib then do: apt-get uninstall thunar apt-get -t etch-backports install thunar apt-get -t lenny install thunar-volman If that doesn't work, or is too much trouble, there are other automounting solutions you can look into. For example, ivman is in etch: http://ivman.sourceforge.net/ Hope that helps, - Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
