Alternatively install the usbmount package. It mounts/unmounts USB storage on insertion/removal. Otherwise it keep out of your face. usbmount has no GUI dependencies. It works a treat. Just remember to "sync" before unplugging (of course that's important for all automatic mount methods). -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
