Automount will NOT work in twm or fvwm2 by any method I've tried. It works SOMETIMES in kde by clicking on the removable device in "my computer" and then finding it in /media/.
The subfs automounting was the source of many problems, and the mailing lists were full of advice to disable it. So it was removed in favour of a user space method, based on the ability of kde and gnome to handle media. It's just not possible to please everyone. But if you run twm or fvwm2, and then complain that you don't get things happening automatically, that's just plain weird. What's next? Booting to runlevel 3 and then complaining that X doesn't start automatically?
I later sent a "test reply" to the list. The test made it on the list, the above topic did not. It would appear that among all the other faults Novell has wrought, they are also filtering the list for the word RECALL...
I received your original copy, as well as John's reply to it. Be sure to adjust that tin foil hat
Whatever,
