I am not 100% sure in 8.2, but on my 9.0 SuSE laptop if I insert a usb flash disk I get a sda1 mounted automatically and an icon pops up on the desktop... Have you tried simply inserting the card reader to see if this happens? Danil

Greetings As the IT guy for some friends who have no concept of mounting and unmounting devices, I'm trying to figure out a foolproof way to set up their KDE environment to easily download pictures from their newly acquired card reader (for their camera). Should I have an icon they can click to perform the mounting/unmounting ? Any other creative ways to simplify this task? I think that in Windows one can hotplug/unplug the card within the card reader and the "disk" miraculously appears/disappears in Explorer. Anyone done something similar to this with KDE? On my machine I just use the CLI but my friends are not computer savvy. TIA for your suggestions
My machine is 8.2 and I don't get an icon unless I manually issue a "mount" command.
I have a SanDisk ImageMate CF, via a USB hub (Belkin). but am not sure what device it is set up as. I've looked at /proc/scsi/scsi and it just shows my CDwriter. I'm using Suse 9.0 on a desktop. I don't get any icon's either. Anybody know how I can identify what device address this is? Phil
