We have discussed this recently: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2006/01/msg01880.html (That thread concerns Etch; if you are using Sid with the latest version of KDE or Gnome you have to use the package "dbus" instead of the package "dbus-1".)Which program automounts usb devices in KDE so that it is shown mounted in desktop
We might have a slight misunderstanding here: Whether or not a device is "mounted" in the filesystem is not directly related to whether or not an icon is visible on the desktop. If it is enough for you to have an icon appear on the desktop whenever you plug in such a device, then the procedure outlined in the thread above should be sufficient. (Read the follow-up posts.) The mounting is then done automatically as soon as you click on the icon, and you can unmount the device again in the icon's right-click menu ("safely remove"). If you want the mounting to be fully automated, then you probably need the packages "usbmount" and/or "am-tools". Regards, Florian P.S. Please reply to the list and don't cc me.
