I'm not after auto mounting, I just want the USB icon to appear on XFCE= desktop when I insert USB stick.
I mount them USB by right clicking on the icon and select "mount"=
But for some reason or another the FAT32 is not showing up.

By following the instructions given at = the link I specified in my last email, I had the USB icon as well as icons = for other types of removable devices appear on my XFCE desktop. You may wan= t to go over those instructions to eliminate something you might have overl= ooked.
