Thanks for the help.
I am having problems installing the package thunar-volman.
This is a package management problem, at which I am no expert!
The package is not available on etch, but is on the list of packages for sid:
http://packages.debian.org/sid/thunar-volman
However, when I issue
# aptitude show -t sid thunar-volman
I get
E: Unable to locate package thunar-volman
# aptitude install -t sid thunar-volman
I get
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done

Building tag database... Done
Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "thunar-volman"
The following packages have been kept back:
linux-image-2.6-686 openssh-client openssh-server
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
The following is my sources.list:
