Dear All,

I solved the issue by using udisks-glue, which works perfectly. To add to
it, I have installed ejecter, (https://launchpad.net/ejecter) so the
removable drives are now handled perfectly.

Thanks a lot Bob for jumping in the "off topic" debate / statements.

I love fluxbox, UI used Unity for a few weeks and after I went back, I
realised what I missed while using Unity: snappiness, light, configurable,
tabbing, ...

So I would not have switchted to another desktop, but rather have been a
little bit less happy. And I think to know that you can have a lightweight
automounter with usbdisks-glue, is a valuable asset for everybody using
fluxbox, and especially starting to use fluxbox.

I would add it to the wiki, but I haven't found a way to register, but I'll
ask in a new thread?

Cheers and thanks,

Rainer
