Thanks JohanI think that I see where my question was ambiguous. I should've made clearer that once I've clicked on the device in "computer", the icon loads onto the desktop. What I wanted to find out how to do was to have that icon come onto the desktop automatically whenever a device is found and automounted.
But thanks for gconf-editor - news to me and helpful ... thank you!! Cheers Andy -- "If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about the answers." - Thomas Pynchon, "Gravity's Rainbow"
