Thunar Volman and Esata Drives

[pwatk]

Hi all,

I recently purchased an esata express card for my laptop and enclosure for my backup 2.5" hdd. Everything works as expected but because the drive is now seen as a fixed disk I have to mount the drive manually.

I know I can add a line in fstab to mount the drive for me but I'd like Thunar's Volume Manager to mount the drive dynamically under /media like any other removable device.

I've googled udev and hal rules but I'm really lost with this, can anyone here help?

Thanks

Ok, now the drive will auto mount (don't know why it didn't before) but I don't get an icon for it.

I think this is a question for the Thunar devs.
