A USB drive is inserted 2. The drive is mounted in some location automatically (e.g. /media/usbstick) 3. (2) happens even when the drive is an NTFS or FAT32 drive. 4. (1)-(3) happens even if I am not running a "GUI" 5. (1)-(3) happens even if I am running the "GUI" called "TWM" 6. (1)-(3) happens even if I am running the "GUI" called "xfce4" 7. (1)-(3) happens even if I am running the "GUI" called "gnome" 8. (1)-(3) happens even if I am running the "GUI" called "kde" 9. Bonus: if a GUI is runing, an icon appears on the desktop. This icon can be used to umount or to quickly navigate to the mounted directory. 10. Bonus: if you use words like dbus/policykit/consolekit/COM/DDE/OLE that allow me to get a technical understanding of the mechanisms in play. Thank you, Chris
