It literally could be anything that someone has written and who is the say the limits to someone's creativity? I will start the guessing by asking about gnome-volume-manager because no one else suggested anything better. :-) Do you have it installed? dpkg -l gnome-volume-manager If so then that would be the thing that is mounting your removable storage automatically. $ apt-cache show gnome-volume-manager Description: GNOME daemon to auto-mount and manage media devices gnome-volume-manager is a GNOME daemon that acts as a policy agent on top of the kernel, udev, D-Bus and HAL. It listens to HAL events and reacts with user-configurable actions. Currently it supports automount of new media and hot-plugged devices, autorun, autoplay for CDs and DVDs, and automatic camera management. It is expected to be simple and free of polling and other evil hacks. You said LXDE. I don't know and was hoping someone else who knew better about LXDE would say if gnome-volume-manager was being used there or not. Often XFCE and LXDE use some components from GNOME and this seems likely to be one of those components. However you said your "/media/<blah>" was being owned by root after it was mounted. That is not normal for gnome-volume-manager. Normally it would set the ownership to be you so that you can access the media. So something may be wrong. Or it may actually be something else mounting it. Try looking at the system log at the same as as you insert and remove your removable media. Look at the messages that are presented there. Hopefully there will be a clue as to what is happening based upon the messages seen in the system log. While changing media: tail -f /var/log/syslog Or use 'less /var/log/syslog' and browse around it in it. The 'F' in less will "Follow" the end of the file which is convenient. Bob
