What kind of automounting do you mean? Devfs? I'm using udev and hotplug, but the icon doesn't appear on my desktop when I plug in my pendrive. I don't need the automount feature, but it would be nice if kde could place the pendrive icon on my desktop only after I've attached my pendrive. Is this possible? Now I can only place a link to my desktop with right click -> New item -> link to a device. But this icon doesn't change automaticly when I'm mounting/unmounting my device from console. It only changes when I'm mounting the pendrive thru that icon (right click mount/unmount). > If you prefer manual mount (that's my case) you can add your device > in /etc/fstab and you can add an icon for the unmounted device (or one will > show automaticaly, it depends). > > In my case, I have a line in fstab for my nfs share, but it's "noauto" > mounted, so an icon for an unmounted network share is shown on the desktop, > and I can manually mount the share if necessary. > > Maybe there are other ways to do that, > > Thierry Thanks!
