Thanks to all, summarizing: 1. udev rules: mounts automatically, with pmount can do non-root un-mounting 2. mdev: according to the man page works only at system boot 3. uam: does not require fiddling with udev rules but cannot un-mount I suppose I'll go with 1. Next question: will pcmanfm automatically display an icon for the newly mounted media and delete it once it is unmounted? raffaele
