You don't need ivman with KDE, as long as KDE is merged with the hal USE
flag.

You don't want /dev/sda1 in /etc/fstab, let KDE create the appropriate
mount point in /media.

KDE uses the volume name of the partition to pick the name of the device.
So the /dev/sdN value is irrelevant. If you want that to be consistent,
set up a persistent naming rule for udev, see
