Hi!
I upgraded my desktop machine from 10.1 to 10.2-RC2. I love the new
autofs master map type of -media.
From the command line, I can reach my pendrives and other removable
media. But I'd like to know, how
to integrate this mechanism into a DE? I use XFCE, but I'm interested
in GNOME or KDE, too. Integration:
- it means here - when I push a thumbdrive in, I'd like to see a new
icon (or more icons, if there are more
mountable partitions on the media) on the desktop of the DE; and of
course, clicking on that icon, the DE
should open the filemanager with the mounted directory of that media);
and the other way, most modern
DE's filemanager has an "umount" function - so I'd like to know how to
use them with autofs - if at all,
possible.
Thanks,
