There are would be many ways to go about fixing that problem. One way would
be to intercept the calls to 'mount' and 'umount' so that rox-filer
refreshes the mount point displays every time that 'mount' or 'umount' is
called. I've attached two scripts that do just that. Simply place these in
a folder that is both in your $PATH and that is before the folder
containing the mount and umount binaries. Don't forget to make them
executable.

Notes:
*I've only done light testing with these scripts; use at your own risk.
*These scripts will only be of any use if the 'mount' and 'umount' commands
are called by you. If they are called by any other *user, *the scripts will
not work.
*I'm sorry to reply to such an old email.
*Is polite to reply to the mailing list, or should replies be sent to the
person who posted?
