hello list,
i'm old-fashioned and i never cared for this automount thing, but now i have two pen drives and two usb hard disks that i have to mount and umount all the time, and doing it by hand every time is beginning to be very annoying... i see that distributions like ubuntu and others have this feature by default: you plug in a pen drive and it creates a mount point under /media and mounts the device there. but i have no idea to get something like that working on my gentoo machine. i searched the web, but the documents i found on the subject are somewhat contradictory and all of them too old for comfort. any hints about a standard "gentoo way" to achieve this? by the way, i use xfce, so i can't use tools specific for kde or gnome, if they exist. best, lj
