Hi,
I'm new to the list, so I'll apologize in advanced if this was already
covered :P
I just installed Debian as part of an "experiment" as I'm writing an
article about
it for a Linux forums site. I have just come across a problem that I
am unsure how to resolve: if I insert a CD/DVD in the PC, it gets
mounted automatically, and is available in media:/ and in the Storage
Device kicker applet as well. How can I do this with a USB drive as
well? From what I have read, using HAL and udev should be enough to
accomplish that.
I have done many searches on google, but the results were less than
satisfying. Many links pointed to hotplug, which according to my last
update is deprecated, and was removed. Other sites just gave me
information, but managed to contradict themselves, and wouldn't be of
help.
Can anyone give me pointers to up to date documentation regarding this
issue, like Debian howto or something? In case it helps, I'm using
Debian unstable, apt-get upgrade'd last night (Feb 1st).
Thanks alot
