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/. My apologies to all if warranted, but my reply was the one-and-only one
that has ever been delayed. It arrived here at 1422, shortly after my cynical (and I certainly hope unwarranted) remark to John (over 6 hours late, and following my "test reply", which was immediate). I mis-spoke anyway, giving the impression of automounting, since John's email re the automounter triggered my reply. I have found NO way to mount, manually, user, root, entries in fstab, etc, either usbsticks or cd's. (Other than in KDE, that is.) This was an entirely virgin install out of the box on an athlon-2800 with a gig of ram. It is slow, unable to update, and fighting every step of the way. (I use Cinelerra a lot, which chokes terribly in KDE or Gnome) I'm not new to the list, nor to kernel.org et al. I'm cross-eyed reading and searching for all the needed (correct) answers to jump start this buggy. I don't blame any of you guys at all. But I stand with the concept that Novell is doing a huge dis-service to us all. Tom
