Anyone working on this? basic idea: run the automounter locally and use a locally running gui=20 (MToolsFM is very leight weight) to show up device and home dir. that=20 works almost like hotplug, no need to restart the terminal. drawback=20 is, that you don't have drag 'n drop. (it's even possible to get xnc=20 up and running with this feature, but that's much harder to achieve.) drawback, too, is that you have to do ugly copy jobs to get things=20 running cause LTSP's libs require special old binaries to get along=20 and you spoil somehow your LTSP dir. i have it running at school since a year, no complaining any more that=20 they can't use their usb thingies as wanted. wolfgang - -- Public Key available at pgp keyservers, e.g. http://pgp.mit.edu =D6ffentlicher Schl=FCssel liegt u.a. auf http://blackhole.pca.dfn.de -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCN3qZnlCf5+ELaesRAt1wAKC+d1rx2rngMq9IjXNOiSobgtF/nACcDU93 RHn3NJ8+Jxw1Sr44RHvZR/Y=3D =3DPHdT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --8323328-313337573-1110932118=:3922-- ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
