Check the kde controlcentre under Desktop - Behaviour - Device Icons to see if kde is using that. If it is enabled then you may possibly only need to tick the "Mounted Removable Medium" option as their is no specific option for flash music players; they would most likely come under that. It is likely though that since thsi whole system is so new that you will need to wait for a new release or else learn a bit about hal-dbus technology from freedesktop.org since however it is automounting correctly under hal my first comment may be all that is necessary or else you may just need to add your device under the /etc/hotplug/usb.usermap file. -- regards, andrew ___________________________________________________ .
