Thanks David for your quick anwser.

However, I have already done what you mention if you re-read my original
mail.
This does work but I'm trying to achieve someting a little more clever. An
equivalent to Mount/Unmount

When the device if not mounted, you only see the Mount Action. If it IS
mounted then you only see the Unmount Action.

That's the kind of behaviour I was trying to get. Declaring my actions
directly in the .desktop files will make the actions ALWAYS present in the
context menu (like FORMAT for the Floppy disk).

I wanted an equivalent of what you can do with the servicemenu of Konqueror
(There's media_mount.desktop and media_unmount.desktop).

Get the idea ?

Thanks,

Vince.
